[Elecraft] Copying CW at high speeds

[David Woolley]

Neve conduction is actually a mixture of chemical and electrical 
mechanisms, in vertebrates.  The signal travels electrically in short 
hops, and is then regenerated by a chemical process.  Invertebrates have 
propagation velocities of more like 1 metre / second.
