    Now, if you can copy the CQ sent with a rusty fist on a straight key from a drifty 350...

    W1AW still does code practice bulletins. And the code is machine perfect.

    I know a number of hams who also have hearing loss, and they can do code better than voice.

    I like contests for code practice. I don't participate, just listen and see how much I can catch at those crazy speeds. I'm in the habit of using a straight key... probably get faster if I used the paddles more.

    The code practice and learning at AA9PW.com is excellent...

    Most of what you’ve been told about learning Morse Code is wrong — dead wrong.

    Amateur radio operators traditionally have used the slowest, most frustrating, most painful and least effective techniques possible for gaining code proficiency.


    You can gain real code proficiency. You can do it in a reasonable amount of time and with a minimum of frustration and pain. In order to do so, you must approach code training from a different perspective and use different techniques from those common among amateurs for the past half century.
    This page will generate practice MP3 audio files that you can save.

    There's an iPhone app too.
