Good morning Fellow hams,

 

I first would like to wish everyone a very happy and healthy and safe new
year.

 

We are all good here, just been very busy.

 

I have decided-though I haven't been on the air in a while to study for my
general license  and perhaps start to learn morse code. However, I am not in
a hurry on that. I am excited about studying for my General. I am a part of
a radio club and I am their secretary. How bout that. LOL!

 

My questions are as follows:

 

1.     What is the best way to learn Morse code. I have cochlear implants,
but I hear quite well with them and I think in time and with persistence and
patience, I can learn it. I probably won't be able to do full speed, but
maybe keep at a comfortable level. I have an iPhone and wondering if there
is an accessible app by which I can learn also.

2.     I have a mac pc and wonder if anyone on here knows if the mac has
echo link and how accessible is it?

 

3.     I have the Microsoft pc, but have to get a microphone for it. Can
anyone recommend a mike for the windows pc that will work best with
echolink?

 

Thank you so much for any tips and stuff.

 

Hugs and 73

Linda C. Knight & shirley
