Hello, Hans

Some folks I'm reading in the thread might have preferred the method in RMA
school. You *will* copy 16 words per minute before you graduate. You
*will* graduate in (was it 8 weeks? I forget). Or else. Vietnam was hot.
No one wanted the "fail and sail" option. People *did* learn Morse code in
record time )

BTW, they had recently reduced the code speed when I was in RMA school in
1967. I believe it had been 18 words per minute and they had reduced it to
16. Oh yes, you had to memorize the BAUDOT code also.

After leaving the service, I was working at Kodak and took a part time job
at WADD in Brockport, NY, a small am radio station. I was in a rush and
ripped copy from the teletype. The guy breaking me in was watching over my
shoulder as I started the news. LOL ... right in the middle of one article
the teletype took a hit and shifted out of letters and into gibberish. I
read right through it. After we went back to the records he asked "how in
hell did you do that?". I told him 4 years in the Navy running teletypes
tend to do that to you. I was used to it.
