After reviewing a few of my past log UBN reports, I decided to find out where I was busting calls. So I started working out with RUFZ-XP and made several interesting discoveries. The first culprit is

Anyone else notice this aging by-product? Not yet...but, I did the same thing with RUFZ, and found it was my non-existent typing skills. Seeing my UBN's were almost the same in both CW & SSB, I decid

There's no question age is a factor. I've been doing some RUFZ practicing lately and I find progress VERY slow. As a matter of fact, I think I've only improved back to the level I was at when I was a

I am starting to Age a bit also and the copy seems ok but the typing is sure leaving some to be desired, I recomment Morserunner also as something to increase copy speed and typing improvemnet. Quack

Not to mention having to put up with lids! Yes. There's actually a "lid factor" incorporated into MR. Actually, it seems to increase right along with one's progress. Most frustrating :) But I do tend

Ian, When I practice with Morserunner, I set it for 10 minute runs with an activity of 4, using the HST mode. With 2 teenage kids, there's just too much commotion around here to be sure I'll have an

Like Barry said, Morse Runner is the only program you need to know. It trains you on the full gamut of CW skills: pileups, lids, QRN, QRM, QSB, RIT, high-speed, low-speed -- and of course, typing! I

Barry I would like to respectfully suggest you save your response and re-visit it in 15 years. The problem W4ZV is talking about is 'Father-Time'. Unfortunately, in the long run, Father-Time is going

I did that a couple times this weekend in the VHF contest. I wrote down the call, thought "That isn't right" and listened to him send it again. Then I corrected it. "Dyslexics of the World Untie!" 73

Something funny is going on. I honestly used to think that I was slightly above average. In other words, if there were 1500 entrants in a CW SS, my cw skills would be among the top 750. I always thou

I suspect, that for most of the respondents, the problems are two fold; certainly that is the case for myself. 1. Lack of keyboard skills and/or 2. Poor memory retention/ translation. re 1. For those

The problem is that we old farts learned instant recognition to pencil/paper and not to keyboards. Old habits are difficult to get rid of. Add to that the decreasing memory quality and it shows in th

Sorry for responding to an old message. If your typing ability is the problem -- why not just learn how to type? It's a skill, like CW, and can be learned with practice. There are several software pr
