FW: [Elecraft] CW

[Dan Barker]

Anytime you are practicing sending (or sending on the air for that matter),
it can be extremely enlightening (or depressing, depending on your fist) to
hook up a CW reader (I use CWGet) and look it over after your session. I
find it very helpful with spacing. If you can make a straight key send
0123456789 to CWGet without any errors or spaces, you've done something.
That's almost as hard as sending a paragraph!

I used to consistently sign "DEW G4S" until I started watching my sessions
on the laptop. Now I sign "DE WG4S". It's got to be easier on the other guy!

A good way to practice is to send to yourself from a page in a book.
