[CW] Unusual Morse teaching method

[wz4cw at comcast.net]

Hans- 

     Yes, this is a novel approach, and you probably could learn the morse characters this way.  However, you might find that this method seriously limits your ability to increase your morse code receiving speed.  This is because any time you introduce "dits" and "dahs" into the recognition process (either visually or otherwise)  you have slowed the total morse character recognition time.  It could be very difficult to overcome this impediment. 

     The accepted practice is to learn by  hearing each morse character as a complete sound rather than individual "dits" and "dahs".  This way, when you hear the morse character sound, you either write it down or at least recognize it immediately if copying mentally. There are several computer programs that teach morse code character recognition by sound, one of which is "G4FON".
