Howdy Mike and all...
I envy your ability to copy and write down code at such high speeds. I can
not do that. I put down my pencil about 18 years ago. I could not keep up
with 20 wpm. I copy code only in my head. I sometimes jot down bits of
information such as name or call. I 'head copy' up to my max speed of about
45 wpm. I never thought about the mechanics envolved until last summer at
field day someone asked how I was doing that. I didn't have an answer. I
started concentrating on what I was doing and to my surprise I found that I
was not hearing the letters. I was hearing the sounds of the letters as
though they were being spoken. As a letter is sent, I think the sound of the
letter and build the word as the rest comes. I never really learned to do it
that way. It just happened. A side benefit to this is that I can copy code
and carry on a conversation with someone else at the same time. I operate
mobile cw daily and this method makes it very enjoyable. I wouldn't have a
clue as how to teach someone to copy this way. It may not even be a
preferred method, however, it works for me.
