Learning Morse code: using a PC program vs keyer?
I'm trying to use a computer program to learn Morse code. The problem is, I keep getting confused and am having a lot of trouble. Would it be easier/more productive to actually buy a cheap keyer and just practice that way? Would the tactile sensation help?
You might do better, at least to learn how to send, computers don't really help you sending or learning to "key".
The sound of the code also makes a difference. Some computer programs send the characters very slowly. So if you are just learning and the characters are sent at 5wpm and spaced at 5wpm it is hard to learn. I learned much faster when the characters were sent at say 10wpm or even 15wpm and the spacing was longer. You begin to "hear" characters rather than dits and dahs... don't even think of trying to count them either that just messes your mind!
Some of the better computer programs let you set the character speed and the overall speed... try faster characters longer spacing it may help. As with any "language" you will be confused, then one day it just sounds right. Keep listening and pick out as much as you can. Even try listening over the air. The ham bands still have plenty of code in use.
