I was stationed with some pretty good CW ops during my time
in the Navy.  One of them could copy 40 wpm with his "cans"
hanging around his neck while talking to you and sipping his
coffee.   He said the code went in his ears and out his fingers
without stopping in his brain.   I never even came close to that
level.  But I did get to where I could "poke" out short  messages on
a model 28 set for 60 wpm  as fast as it would let me.  Once in a while
even the 100 wpm machines were pushed.
