Totally agree with this statement. I don't do much CW rag chew now as I used to. So I'm losing some of my edge. But even from the beginning of a CW contest to the end, the 36WPM sending speed at the end seems the same as the 26WPM speed I started with. And I'm able to rag chew a bit at the higher speed rather than only copy the call and report. SS is the best for honing in accuracy with speed throughout just the contest period ass the exchange is long and mostly unpredictable. 73 Gene, N9TF ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
