Great CW podcasts
Dit Dit FM is great listening! If you’re even just remotely interested in Morse Code you’ll find the topics/speakers interesting. I’ve found a lot of motivation to try different techniques and to check different resources for learning CW. I found that my experience learning the code is not unique. Even the guys who today might be considered experts had humble (& slower) beginnings!

Best Podcast Ever
I am new to CW and absolutely love this Podcast. I learn something with every episode. I even found an Elmer because of this Podcast. Every episode is packed full of information, contacts and links. Did I mention that I LOVE this Podcast 😊 73 de KE8E0N

Binging DitDit
Having just binged about 20 episodes I have to say I love this podcast. Bruce and his guests have a sensitive and personable disposition that shines through the airwaves making CW seem far more interesting than the general public would like to believe. I love all the origin stories and the varied CW experiences. And since I often find myself wanting to rewind to catch something again I really appreciate Bruce’s episode recap bullet points at the end of the podcast. Thank you Bruce for aggregating this excellent CW knowledge.

Great show
I love this show. I’m a 30-year ham that never got beyond the code I needed to get my license. Now I’m getting very serious about CW and this show is very encouraging.

Other podcasts audio leaves a lot to be desired ... some need an AGC circuit... loud bursts of laughter and such ... this cast is very nice to listen to. Bruce makes it sound like a professional, and they are all interesting. 👍Bruce 73 es dit dit😁

Every Episode Is Worth The Listen!
I’ve enjoyed each podcast. All are a real kindness! Would love to hear an interview with the Puerto Rico operator who moved a bunch of message traffic out after hurricane Maria.

You'll Be Surprised - Guaranteed!
Somehow I accidentally came across this podcast while looking for something to help me practice CW. Instead of finding what I was looking for I discovered a most interesting site that features guests who have excelled in some aspect of radio operations related to CW. Along with being entertained by the diversity of topics I have learned so much about radio and CW. Bruce, the moderator, has a talent for interviewing guests and is able to create interest in those lacking experience (me) along with educating his audience. I suggest you go back and listen to all of his episodes, back to May 2017. I did and because of this podcast I'm excited about getting back on the air and focusing on CW and QRP. I am also getting my grandkids started. Check it out, you'll be pleasantly surprised... guaranteed!

Interesting
Great podcast on the origins of Marine radio station KPH. They used Morse Code and were a very powerful station Worldwide. As an ex ships radio officer I found it fascinating.

My Favorite
Can’t wait for the next episode. Thanks for supporting CW.

Helpful
Most podcasts have not been helpful to me, a new technician. This one, though, uses language and concepts that, while not talking down to anyone, are able to teach. Smart people understand difficult concepts. REALLY smart people can teach them.

Really good info on Learning CW
Lots of good information for new or advanced CW Operators. Already listened to all of them and wish there were more. Would like maybe more info on types of antennas and things to do to set up a new rig and antenna.

Great CW information
Really enjoyed the topics, conversations and the ease of access you are providing to a wealth of information.
Asa is my muse
New format is good
Just listened to the new format with the episode on getting over the cw jitters. Liked hearing others talk about their first time experiences. I’ve been learning and listening to cw for a few years but still haven’t sent a cq. I’ve done a few QSO party contests but that’s it. Thanks for the cw pod casts. Bob AC9MG.

The real deal
From the outside Bruce comes across as a friendly, down-to-earth, easy-to-talk-to guy and now that I have been one of his interviewees, I can confirm that Bruce is everything he seems - in person he's the real deal. Bruce brings in interesting guests (myself aside) and makes sure to conduct the interview so that the listener comes away with solid information and an optimistic outlook. I've learned something important from every one of his podcasts. My only criticism is that I wish he had time to do more interviews! Keep up the good work Bruce!

All podcasters should take note
Great podcast! Why? They’re of appropriate length... not too long. Great variety of guests who get time to tell their story. A good summary at the end of the show helps you recall all the ideas and “go do” things you heard about. And of course, the enthusiasm for learning or improving your skill in using Morse code is infectious!

Excellent resource
The host makes or breaks a show. This host allows his guest to speak and express ideas without the host interrupting or interjecting himself which would break the flow of the show.

Learning first few letters without an Elmer
This podcast keeps me motivated to keep pushing through, once I start to think it’s not worth learning. Still a tech wanting to dive into HF. Studying for general simultaneously.

Episode 17 - Aplha Antennas
Bruce conducts another outstanding interview with Steve N0TES who talks about some rather interesting and amazing highights of his youth and later years. Steve talks about his passion for the hobby, his creation Alpha Antennas and his love for his fellow man. A truly outstanding podcast. Thank you Bruce and Steve!

Fun and informative
Weekly interviews of the Morse Code stars. I learn something new every week, and I've known the Code for 46 years.

Great for the CW beginner
I’ve only been at CW for less than a year. Bruce’s podcasts always give encouragement and guidance for getting on the air and making QSOs. The Elmers he has as guests say that this is the best way to improve. I always look forward to listening to new episodes.

Great!!!
Podcast is a great resource for ham radio. I’ve been a ham for nearly 50 years. Passed my extra test while the 20 wpm test was in effect. Now that I’m retired my desire to master cw has increased. Took CW Ops Academy level 2 after listening to the podcast. Thanks for getting me back on track. Keep up the podcasts.

Good interviews with great tips for aspiring CW Operators
Bruce has a down-home folksy style, which is very easy to listen to. His guests all have a unique view of operating cw and learning the code. Some are very “old-hands”, while others are relatively new. As an aspiring CW operator that struggles with “head-copy”, these podcasts provide great tips and encouragement to keep at it! Thanks, Bruce.

Just starting CW...
...but I've found this podcast most helpful. It reminds me that everyone sending CW @ high speed was a beginner at one time. Experts give plenty of tips to build confidence!

Confidence builder
The Ditdit podcast provides some great interviews that gives you the sense you can do it too! I'm slowing working my way back to CW after learning it for my Novice test many years ago hoping to overcome the key fright that's kept me from it. These podcasts helps you understand there are many great hams out there willing to help others along. Love the take-aways at the end. Thanks for the inspiration. KA1DTG

Great information for those struggling with CW
I am having a hard time learning and after 6 years have made about 2 contacts.
Immabeahouseguest
Great encouragement!
Wow! Bruce and his guests do a great job making the the code sound simple enough to learn. "A 50 word language." I have just come across this podcast this past week and can't get CW off my mind. :-) KE0MUD

Finally!
Finally a podcast for Morse Code enthuisiasts... or those who want to be. Very informative and encouraging. I love it!

Worth your time
Bruce and his guests are full of neat stories and hints. The thing that hit home with me is to *not* over think it it, as a cw op you will make mistakes but but you will gain experience and confidence.

Great Interviews
The guests on this podcast are great. The host does a great interview, and I like the review at the end of each one.
