Hello Ray,
There is some very fast sending - was that with a straight key? I
know that China has some really really fast sending CW operators -
even with the D117 / K4 Chinese Army (PLA) key they rattle off some
fast code. What a spring on that key! It is like they use on
automobiles!
One of my favorite memories was hearing Hong Kong Radio / VPS (back
then it was British) calling CQ just before noon - "Time for Hong Kong
Time Ticks..." and sending the warning dots and dash for clock
setting.
