[CW] Morse Training Programs

[Ron Zond]

Kate and Others

I had the same problem. Instead of working up, I worked down.
There is a W1AW run that starts at 35 wpm and goes down. You can probably
download them from the ARRL website, P ick a speed at which you are
comfortable, and LISTEN;
don't try to copy anything. If you are stuck at 18 wpm, and want to copy 20
to 25, listen to 35 wpm, and work down.
At some point you can start to copy at a comfortable speed.  Try this for
three weeks, and you should be copying
faster than you are now. If your goal is 20 wpm, three weeks should do it.
By the way, the method  seems to
be impervious to the ravages of age, so all of you age ravaged folks might
want to try this. I was nearly 50 when I discovered the trick. Good luck  73

    18 wpm in 90 days is good. How would you like to do 20+ in three weeks?

      If you are like me, you NEED to do what I did, I found a HAM club that
    teaches Morse code along with many pro-signs and abbreviations.
    18 wpm in a few months.
