  • ARRL International DX CW Contest 18./19. Feb. 2023
    - Only Monoband Dipol and Quad Loop ! NO BEAM IS USED
    - Give manually with hand by paddle ! NO PC / TRX CONNECTION IS USED
    - Chance decides which station is worked ! NO CLUSTER IS USED
    Livevideo ! So läuft bei mir jeder Contest ab. Immer Paddlebetrieb mit der Hand.
    Ob nur ein paar Stunden wie im gezeigten ARRL-Contest oder wie im letzten Jahr
    23 Stunden im WAG-Contest. Das macht mir immer noch am meisten Spaß.
    Wie man im Video hören und sehen kann passieren jedem Funkamateur hier
    und da auch mal Fehler, natürlich auch mir. Das ist ganz einfach so !
    Es ist eben live, nichts geschönt oder weggelassen.
    Viel Spaß beim Zuschauen / Zuhören.
    Live video ! This is how every contest works for me. Always paddle operation with the hand.
    Whether only a few hours as shown in the ARRL-Contest or as last year
    23 hours in the WAG-Contest. This is still the most fun for me.
    As you can hear and see in the video happen to every radio amateur here
    and there also times mistakes, naturally also me. That is quite simply in such a way!
    It is just live, nothing embellished or omitted.
    Have fun watching / listening.
    73, Andy DL6FA

    Excellent video. Love the unassisted and manual ops. Watching CW masters keep me motivated on the CW learning journey. 73 and thanks for posting

    Nice and I'm not keying at those speeds. Glad I use the PC for that. Nice job 73 de KC2ZA

      Try it also only with paddle, it´s definitely more fun than the PC, many thanks and 73, Andy de DL6FA

    Nice operating and nice video, Andy. The captions are a nice touch to make the experience more accessible to noobies. Kudos for sending all the code manually. The computer has degraded my skills to the point I’d never try it! 73 DE N8PE

      Pure practice, develops all by itself over the years. But I also have over 30 years of practical experience. Thank you a lot. Best 73 and good DX, Andy de DL6FA

    I wonder if there a way to filter the paddle clicking, and just hear the transmitting tone?

    • @Andy-lc4wd
      @Andy-lc4wd  7 місяців тому

      Hello, the clicking is intentional in the video to show how the paddle sounds. It cannot be filtered out. In my more recent videos, the paddle clicks can only be heard very quietly in the background. Many 73, Andy de DL6FA

    Like the overhead shots of keying the Janus. Curios if you use Iambic A or Iambic B?

    • @Andy-lc4wd
      @Andy-lc4wd  10 місяців тому

      Hello dear OM, I use Iambic A. 73 Andy

    Sehr schön Andy, genau die richtige Geschwindigkeit für mich um im CW-Tempo voran zu kommen. Danke fürs Video, 73 Jürgen, DL1DUR. P.S. Den richtigen TRX hast du auch ! 890 ?

    • @Andy-lc4wd
      @Andy-lc4wd  Рік тому

      Der TS890 ist schon ein richtig gutes Funkgerät.

    @jasoncary7957 Рік тому

    I also have the Janus and see you have the paddles quite close to each other, almost like the Sculpture Mono, which is a single lever key. Do you use the Iambic ability of the Janus as well?

    • @Andy-lc4wd
      @Andy-lc4wd  Рік тому +1

      Yes, I use the iambic ability with a very narrow distance between the paddles. For me personally, the closer the distance, the better. 73 Andy de DL6FA

    Too long pause between "DL6FA" and "Test". Sometimes it confuses correspondents.

    • @Andy-lc4wd
      @Andy-lc4wd  Рік тому +2

      Thank you for the constructive criticism. That's exactly the point. Sometimes my breaks are too long. I don't want to make them too short either. I am working on it. 73 Andy

    What headphone you are using on this video?

    • @Andy-lc4wd
      @Andy-lc4wd  6 місяців тому

      Hi, It's the kind of headphones you wear in noisy environments, for example when working with tradesmen. Except that a pair of earpieces have been retrofitted. Vy 73, Andy DL6FA

    • @makskk6spm275
      @makskk6spm275 6 місяців тому

      ​@@Andy-lc4wd Hi. Thanks for the response, Andy. I see some wires that come out from the headphones. Or is this like earphones and you put those noisy protection over them?

    • @Andy-lc4wd
      @Andy-lc4wd  6 місяців тому

      ​@@makskk6spm275 Hi, You are the first to notice that. Before every video, I put a small microphone connected to my smartphone under the headphones. The smartphone shows me from the side and records the QSO sound. The paddle is filmed via a second smartphone. A small microphone is also connected to it via a cable and records the sound of the paddles. Both videos are then synchronized with a video editing program. The video is finished. Simple and inexpensive.

    You have to learn typing with left hand *only* and use the right hand for the paddle. You will save time and unnecessary (and tiring) movements. 73 !

    • @Andy-lc4wd
      @Andy-lc4wd  3 місяці тому

      Thanks for the good tip. I'll have to get used to it quite a bit though. Best 73, Andy
