Funny how different people react differently to CW. I went directly to the
general but worked a lot of CW because I had a DX40 and wasn't going to get
much done on phone with that rig . Consequently, I got my speed up to 30 or
so wpm and enjoyed exercising the skill. Now that I'm back on, nearly 40
years later I find I enjoy it more than ever and i'm up to 40 wpm. I doubt
it will be around forever so I intend to enjoy it while I can. Lou
