[CW] Learning Morse

[Robert Carroll]

Ron-

Your method sounds very interesting.  If you have any more details written
down--or a copy of your article--could you send them to the group?

Hi Dave

I devised a way to learn all the characters in 3 weeks.
It goes like this:

A N    G W    N A    S O   X P
B V     I M      O S     T E  Y Q
D U     K R     P X      U D
E T      L F     Q Y     V B
F L       M I      R K     W G

Exceptions: C H J Z

Here is a demo word: FLANKERT

Have fun

OK, Danny, what is a good way?  I'm all ears - except for the foot in
my mouth!  Yours recommendation is for stinky fish - so I gather you
have a better way.
