Speed is a different issue than sloppy sending.


I recall an oldster on here bragging that he could send code so badly
that a No-Code Technician with a code reader couldn't copy it. All of
the other oldsters on here covered for him by claiming "banana-boat
swings" and other excuses for having a "unique" and incorrect fist.

That and the Farnsworth debacle led to the discovery that the FCC has
absolutely no working definition of Morse Code, yet the FCC denies
people access to hobby radio every day based upon an exam for something
which they no longer have a definition for.
