Hello, gang.

I just read through the tread and would offer this - I had learned dots and
dashes back in 1962. I passed my novice, but couldn't pass 13. In 1964,
due to a long time friend of mine, I purchased a code record, got to 18
words per minute, and obtained my general. Then I discovered I enjoyed
code. I passed the extra in 1966 along with my commercial radiotelegraph
and 1st radiotelephone license and in 1967 handed in a perfect copy on a
typewriter at 40 words per minute in the Navy. There is a problem with the
dot/dash/mental table which will really hurt when one tries to get past 10
words per minute. Been there, done that LOL
