[UK-CONTEST] Learning Morse

[nubsey G0VDZ]

Morse runners fine, but I found it was like working a lid at times. You get 
the suffix, but miss the prefix, or visa versa, so you send the suffix, and 
it ignores you. Unless of course I'm the lid, and I'm doing it wrong.

 But apart from that its great. Also I  get wound up like I am in a contest. 
Can be very realistic.
