[SixClub] comment on the morse testing

[emt426 at gmavt.net]

John, here is my post I posted to the HamRadioHelpGroup, last week.

One the subject of Morse Code, I have been interested in that form of
communications since I was a kid or 10ish. I have been a ham for a few
more than ten years. I do not have the code endorsement, and with the
upcoming ability to use other bands will be certainly enjoyable, continue
to try to learn the code. I have tried many ways over the past 45 + years
with still not being able to learn it. About the only way I haven't tried
is with the use of being hypnotized. Not going there. The leaving of code
from test requirements, will not stop me from trying to learn and use it.
The frequencies won't change so someday I would like to be able to make
at least one QSO using code before I meet Sam Morse in person or in spirit.

The latest learning tool, is a image I downloaded a few months ago and burned
to a CD.
