Hi Folks
I have a copy of jim Farrior's " The Mill". it is a great way to listen
to\copy high speed
Morse. I find that if I relax,and not think about what is being sent, I can
"copy" 50 wpm
with no problem. If I try to copy it, I lose it altogether. I am also
visually impaired to some degree,
and that probably helps. Ted McElroy, the all time champ at high speed Morse
(75.2 wpm), listened
to the code for 15 seconds, then he started copying it.

Well, here's a theory:
Copying? I think it's all about being able to recognize and deal with sound
patterns. Most folks have this capacity to some extent, but some don't. If
you really don't, then I can see where it might take years to master five
wpm (if ever). If you're musical, (read play in instrument by 'ear'), even
whistle at tune, or hum, or sing something that you've heard, reasonably in
tune and tempo, then you should have no trouble with the code.
How about you 60 wpm AL -- can you whistle a tune, bang it out on a piano,
or sing a few bars of 'Happy Birthday'?
Best,
