Before software like CW GET was around I recorded my own sending, working
down a page in a phone book with addresses and numbers or at least a page
out of a magazine. Then I played it back, preferably the next day. If it was
a fist I was happy to copy, I was happy.
Look up Morse Gen on Google. It will send CW from a text file and
whatever speed you desire. It will save it as a .wav file which you can
burn onto a CD and listen to in your vehicle.
Last time I drove down to Atascadero [~5 hrs] to visit my college
roommate and hit the Cal Poly Book store to replenish clothing [OK ...
and drink a little wine, the wine business in the Cal. Central Coast
area is huge], I fed it an e-book I'd bought, and "read" it in CW all
the way down and back. Took 6 CD's -- 3 down, 3 back. Really ... as in
"really really really" ... beats talk radio :-)
Even sent a couple of CDs I made of the letters we put into the packages
we sent to an adopted troop in Afghanistan who was building a K2 and
working towards a ticket.
