[CW] Slow-it-Down

[David J. Ring, Jr.]

John is right!

I've been spending time "hunting" in the "novice bands" for slow CW.

But I sometimes find it difficult to send slow code!

So I'd like to ask the slower operators to be patient with us - sometimes I
can't even slow my hand key to the right speed, so I am forced to use an
electronic keyer - which allows me to send slow.

So mutual patience.  I don't mind a QRS call, so please send QRS QRS!

I try to send the same way the sender does.

Sometimes the sender is sending fast code with lots of spaces - making 18
wpm characters and overall spaces to bring it to 5 wpm.  I TRY to do this,
but I need practice!

So bear with me - I'm trying!
