[HBQRP] Learning Morse Code

[Darrel Swenson]

I overheard some discussions about learning Morse Code this morning.
Thought these links and files might be helpful.

There is the link to Chuck Adam's web site:
   http://www.k7qo.net/ 
Lots of useful information... including:

Chuck's Morse Code Course... version 3.1  (>250MB zipped file...)
   http://k7qo.radiotelegraphy.net/ 

I downloaded the zipped file, it took a little over 20 minutes on our cable
modem.  If all you have access to is a dial-up connection, let me know and
I'll send you a CD copy.

I have attached the instruction manual for the course to this e-mail.  Chuck
gets a little wordy at times, but the basic instructions for learning Morse
code are very good.

The first 149 MP3 files are the main part of the course.
Files 150 to 220 are to learn copying with a typewriter.
Files 300 to 514 are H. G. Well's book "War of the Worlds" as MP3 files.
 (You won't be able to memorize those!!!)
The answer files are included as text files.

If want some more practice...  Chuck has recorded a bunch of other books as
Morse Code MP3 files.  Even at 20WPM it will take you a while to copy a
book!!!  Here is a link to the books recorded as Morse Code...
