Amateur Extra. I've been getting into ham radio for a couple years now and am just now jumping into the world of CW. Speaking of... what kind of straight key do you recommend? I've been told a J-47 is pretty good, but that looks pretty old school...

I am new to CW and developing my skills. I think participating in the SKCC will help me to improve.

I have been learning CW online with the Long Island CW Club. As I start getting on the air, I would like to use every resource available as I continue to learn with my straight key.

Full licence. SKCC is right for me because I learned last 2 years CW with the straight on the Morse Academy on the old steam ship SS Rotterdam.

Extra - I went up through all the license classes under the code rules. I used my straight key for all operations in getting my license and then kept up with it for several years. I then took another look at CW and have been into it ever since.
So many of the people I have met online in the CW world speak highly of the SKCC group and how supportive its members are.
I am looking to be a part of something that is focused on preserving the art of using a straight key for OTA communications and teaching others how to get into this fascinating aspect of the hobby. SK

Extra. Since retiring in 2020, I have been trying to re-engage in Amateur Radio, most recently trying to reacquire CW skills. SKCC was recommended by a couple Hams who operate a CW training organization. After reviewing the material on the website, I find there is much more to SKCC than I had realized. Many thanks, Scott WB5UTM

Extra, I am interested in getting back into Morse code. Back in the mid-80's I passed the 20wpm code test when I upgraded from Advanced to Extra. Afterwards I used it very little and haven't been on the radio since about 2004. Now last year I got back into the hobby, discovered POTA and enjoy it very much making over 3000 contacts in the past 6 months. I am now wishing to get back into Morse code but I am very rusty. I think being a part of this group could help me a lot to improve my code. Thanks, Mike de W4MK

I've been trying to learn CW for years on and off, just when I start getting the characters down I give up. I've been using a straight key but just recently bought a dual paddle thinking it would make learning easier. I've been with LICW and took the CWAcademy course (said I could do 5 WPM) anyway, anything I learned I've forgotten.
