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

This is helpful for me to see what to expect in my first ARRL Intl. DX. I hope to work you this weekend Andy!

Nice job - very impressive. As a cw nut, this is just a great video by a master at the key. Keep up the great work. Auf Wiederhoren! W2FKN

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

[jasoncary]

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?

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

[ricktalbott]

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

[Rene_Voortwist]

You really have skills. FB! Thanks for the inspiration!

[JohnMcCoy]

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

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 !

[danielmartin]

I prefer N1mm to do my keying. I wish I was that competent!

[rafaelsanchez]

Welcome to the UR5KC sound quality, preferably better, success. All good seven three.

[stevecrawford]

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

[dongira]
