Howdy Steve. Well it depends on the speed your going. when speeds like 20
or 25 W P M you do notice but when your copying around 50 or so it seems
like talking, your hearing the trend of the qso and it usually makes sense.
once in a while I have to ask for a repeat if there is thrown in something
such as a number or things like that but it is like talking, your just
getting the trend of the conversation. Hard to explain. 73
