Communicate Around the World Using Morse Code! Using Morse code to communicate with other amateur radio operators is a thrill like no other. The two audio CDs in this set will teach you the code and offer you enough practice to get you started with making contacts on the air. Following the teaching method used on these CDs, you’ll hear Morse code characters sent at a rate of 15 words per minute (WPM), with the spacing between the characters increased to slow the overall code speed to 5 WPM. This is one of the most effective techniques for learning Morse code.You’ll learn letters, numbers, punctuation marks, and common procedural signals. The CDs include plain-language practice text that follows the format of a typical amateur radio Morse code contact. Get in on the fun of this classic ham radio skill and start learning Morse code today with these CDs. Review: Some surprises - When I purchased this item the price was $118. I thought it was a larger set to account for the price. When I received the item the stamped price on the item was $14.95 and it was only one DVD. I contacted the seller and questioned the price. The seller did get back to me quickly and verified that it was the correct price of $118 and that he or she thought it might have been out of print. The seller also cited another DVD which was identical that had a price of over $200. I decided to return the item and I was refunded that price plus a 5 percent restocking fee. I later found the same item for $12.50. The seller did respond quickly to my messages. Review: Great tool for learning CW - This is a great tool for learning Morse code (CW) I find the structure of the lessons to be perfect for both my time and my skill level (starting out with no previous knowledge) These start off with simple letters, teaching the sound pattern and include simple words at regular steps. Based on my own learning speed, I would recommend this to anyone wanting to learn Morse code

Used this to learn "flashing light"
I find it funny that radio operators don't have to test at Morse Code but ship operators still do when we have at least 6 other ways to communicate on our bridge. Anyway, I used this program to learn the code for my flashing light test and it worked great for me. As the tones were played, I wrote the dits and dahs on paper and visualized the light. Then at test time I copied the flashes onto paper and had no trouble with knowing the letters. I'll continue to use this product whenever I need to refresh for my license upgrades.

Good resource
The only thing that can beat this is practice with a real person. I found myself reading text after the first sitting (about 45 minutes), and beng able to "translate" into code! I have been listening to this in the car on my way home to really let the code "sink in". I got these CDs knowing that I would be slow to learn, but I have really caught on. I plan on taking the Element 1 & 3 in a few months.

Good cd to learn code with
This CS is a no nonsense guide to learning code. It jumps right on in and starts. the narration gets to you so I would only recommend short lessons with frequency. Otherwise, you do really seem to pick up the code fairly easily.

I can't stand this guy's voice.
I'd really like to learn CW, so I turned to this trusted and well reviewed CD set. The system used seems like it should work well (repetition and regular refreshers) , but I can't even get through five minutes of the program. The narrator, a ham himself, sounds like he's either sick when this was recorded, or has a naturally heavy nasally voice. Either way, it drives me nuts, and has made the discs unlistenable for me. I'll probably give them away to the next ham I meet who shows interest in CW. EDIT: I've since gotten a copy of the Gordon West W5YI "The Code Teacher" tape series (which I believe is now called "0-5 WPM Morse Code Course"), and wow does it blow the ARRL's "Your Introduction to Morse Code" out of the water. WB6NOA is much more pleasant to listen to, and the exercises are more diverse and entertaining. Plus, the narrator actually makes it fun. I hate to sound so negative, but skip the ARRL's course and head for W5YI.

Learn Morse Code...
Got this about the same time as I took & passed my Technician exam. Even though Morse Code is no longer required...I got this product to learn to use it...since it was highly rated here & other places.
