Just as I thought I was beginning to understand this thread, I've been thrown back into a quandary.

What is the flaw in my understanding here:

1. The Orion can't send CW over 42 wpm.
2. The Omni 6 can't send CW over 68 wpm.
3. Some other unnamed rig can send at speeds over 100 wpm.

Do I have it right, Tom?
