[CW] Ham Code Speed vs. Commercial Code Speed

[N7DC@cs.com]

David, when you say there are operators who copy at 55, is that really 
copying, or just getting the gist of things?  To me, copying means putting it 100% 
perfect, on paper.  I copied 50 wpm circuits for short periods of times, but it 
sure wears on one.  My buddies across the hall were copying at 100wpm, with 
paper tape running thru a machine and showing dashes/dots which then had to be 
copied out to a mill.  Now, that was FAST code in those days.
