Grant,

This reminds me of a CRES Radio Club meeting in Columbus, Ohio back in the 
later 80's.  One of the guys had programmed his 8086 to copy cw and brought 
it to the meeting.  It did a good job on computer-generated cw, but when 
K8TX and I started to have a 25 wpm conversation on our bugs it blew the 
computer's mind.  Even so, we head-copied each other just fine.

Jim, W8KGI
