[AMRadio] Cw

[Mike Sawyer]

I guess I will get my 'dits & dahs' in here. I like all the other, "used" to 
copy at 25 WPM but then became too attracted to phone. Every so often, I'll 
break out the straight key and fire up the HW-16 and listen to the bands. I 
just have a heck of time processing to the point where I become overwhelmed 
and sign SK. I need to practice again and pound some brass, (instead of 
other things).

List,

Quite frankly, I'd rather see even contests using computer generated CW
than to see it die.

Shortly, I'm going to be one of the "old goats" whom is going to be
getting back on CW with a straight key.  I *used* to run at 35 WPM.

Don't look for it for awhile, the 35WPM.

It is going to take time to get back up there.  I will also slow down
for others when I move around the bands.
