[GCARC] Learning Morse

[John Hill]

IMHO, the first step is to learn to speak CW.  That way, you may practice by talking to yourself anytime you desire.

How do you speak CW?

a       di-da
b       dah-di-di-dit
c       dah-di-dah-dit
q       dah-dah-di-dah
1        di-dah-dah-dah-dah
9.      dah-dah-dah-dah-dit
etc.
