[Elecraft] HRD cw copy

[WILLIS COOKE]

Programmers got to believe Sverre or nothing will get done.  And Simon is a programmer!  So, it it can be done, Simon will do it.  If it can't be done, he will come closer than the rest.  And, I don't know any humans that can copy RTTY by ear, or PSK-31 and the computer manages to do that.
