That's around the speed I figured it at. The guy on the keyer was 
obviously a bit nervous (as I would have been). I caught a couple of 
mistakes made in sending, "...my car..." was sent as "...cy car...", and 
there were a couple of places where his spacing between words was 
too fast, but it really didn't matter much, since he kept going and the 
receiver obviously made sense of it.

I thoroughly enjoyed the demonstration. I especially enjoyed it when I 
showed it, more than once, to my smart-assed computer-idiot son.
