Our Morse Code Adventure: Step-by-Step to CW Success

This could be the most important video we've made so far. We started our channel to share the fun with morse code and get other people into the great hobby. The most common question we get asked is "how did you get started?" or "how should I get started?" This is our answer.

Our Journey to Morse Code Mastery

First off, credit where credit's due: learning Morse code is more like a fun walk than a race. Our journey started with some mix-ups. Mike learned a different way that what was presented here and got stuck. Mike almost quit, but did some research and found this way. When Becky expressed interested in learning, Mike got her started with new methods and she learned MUCH quicker.
