Hi, I'm new to CW world, but really like it. As a FISTS member, I do a few CW net around here... Ohio OSN and Georgia GTN... I would like to know at wich speed we could check in ??? I do only around 10-12WPM.... I'M living at Sherbrooke, Quebec...

Congratulations on 'testing the waters' on CW... I'm (almost) certain you will enjoy that mode very well once you develop a bit more proficiency... the higher your CW proficiency, the more enjoyable it will become...

Most CW nets (except those specifically for QRS operators) will run in the 20-25 WPM range, BUT they will also be happy to QRS to YOUR SPEED when you check in... though they will probably speed up a bit more after you are checked in and they need to complete the 'net business'.

So don't hesitate to QNI (check into) a CW net because you feel that you speed is a bit slow... the only way to improve is to USE your abilities, and CW Nets are one GREAT way to do just that!
