[ct-user] Fast CW keying in message ??

[George T. Daughters]

hi marc,

at last!  a question i know the answer to!

when setting the "exchange" with shift-F2 instead of just typing 599 
for the report, type

++599--

each plus sign speeds up the sending rate by 2wpm, (i think it's 
2wpm) and the two minus signs bring you back to the original speed. 
 
i've found that the number of +'s you can use seems to depend both on 
your computer and the cw speed you're using.  it works, though!
