Thank you one and all for your prompt and helpful replies. To sum them up - 1. It will be bad news if I remove the paper from a loudspeaker - it will stop working. 2. A visual method of reading morse would be helpful but I would rather use vibration, but visual and vibration would probable be the ideal. I was taught to read morse visually as well as audible morse whilst as a young 16 year old Navy trainee. I have not done the visual bit since - but then I have not tried the vibration method either - although a good friend of mine G3UFB now tells me he experimented with it 10 years ago when I went deaf and reckons he could read it at 18 WPM - but I haven't got the sensitivity in my fingers that he seems to have. Hence my enquires regarding using a LOUD speaker.. 3. WU7R tells me that a kit called 'son of zerobeat' is available and I will no doubt purchase one. 4. Steve (AA4AK) has sent me an interesting article on Sensory substitution - I shall endevour to understand this 6 page leaflet whilst imbibing my Xmas Brandy. The further down the glass I get the more I will understand it. Thank you Steve. Again thankyou all - further suggestions would be most welcome.
