I guess Bob argument is biased on EK3LR events.  There are less than 100
wrong spots from USA Skimmers.  One would also expect similar EK9CT errors
but there are only 5.  No EK1ZZ or EK9NW.  Only 16 errors of EW3LPL.  Only
one EU Skimmer G0KTN made EK3LR single error out of 330 proper spots.
Average human error rate on CW is around 3 %.  Not for Z6/S56A!

 

I suspect K3LR is using full break-in at legal power which distorts CW
envelope causing random timing errors.  We can learn a lot from RBN!

 

Note to W3WN & W2UP:  We learnt a lot about proper coding since Alfred Vail
"invented" Morse code based on English language stats J  I like Pascal.
