[CW] Relearning / Koch / G4FON

[W5KDJ]

Hi all,

If you can do it try recording CW off your computer to 
CD's.  I get at least 15 minutes everyday in the car gg 
back and forth between the QTH & the house in the car. 
Am hung on 55 rite now.  I use CW Morse to enter text 
and record cd's.  It only goes to 50wpm so you gotta 
jump in 5wpm segments after that.
