Be very careful which version of Morse Code you learn
from encyclopaedias!

A few years ago, a couple of guys turned up at Portishead
Radio to take the 12 WPM test and were failed when it came to
sending because they had learned from an old encyclopaedia
what was the old Yank landline code!

Since I'm a little unclear on the nomenclature (and trying to
re-remember all those acronyms) and how amateur radio and CW has changed
since I was a kid, I'm a little fuzzy on the best way to approach
physically keying Morse Code.
