I tried hard to copy an op the other night and failed miserably. The code was all run together with very inconstant element duration. Around 13 WPM on a hand key. I was about to get the rhythm figured out when he BK'd to the other op.
It got WAYYYYYY worse. This guy was on a bug, set for 35 WPM I'd guess. But being polite, he was sending 13 WPM to match the first op. 13 WPM Dashes and 35 WPM dots, spaced for about 16 WPM. My head is hurting just writing this down. I think I could have gotten copy on the Hand Key, but the bug never made any sense. It was just a different Morse code than what I know. One might say these two guys deserved each other<g>. Dan / WG4S / K2 #2456 <snip> Have you ever heard the 'banana boat swing?" ...
