I could see somebody copying about 10 wpm with a slate otherwise you have to use grade 3 Braille to keep up. I could see copying about 25 or so using a brailler. I've copied 45 wpm but that's equivalent to using a mill or typewriter. I've copied 55 in my head but that's been quite a while ago. I could probably consistently copy at 50wpm but I'd like to try some of those high speed methods you hear about in the fists newsletter. 73- pat kk3f ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eric Clegg" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Saturday, February 28, 2009 9:15 PM Subject: Re: New Rig Purchase > HI Danny, > I still have your phone number so I'll give you a call some time and we > can > discuss antennas and other stuff. > > My code speed right now is woefully slow but I know it will come back. > > I'm still going to get an FT817ND but that will be closer to this summer > or > fall. > > Take care and have a great rest of the weekend. > > Best 73's, > > Eric > KU3I >
