Master the Morse

I strongly suggest that interested parties learn the code using the current practice of learning the code by sound. Luckily, there are literally thousands of programs written by hams for all sorts of things, among them are programs designed to help master the Morse code. There are several such programs. Start out with a code speed of 5 words per minute, and a weight of about 13 words per minute. Weight is how fast the dots and dashes in a character sound. The individual letters are spaced apart further thus providing a lower wpm rate. That way, the brain tends to memorize the complete character sound, instead of the individual dots and dashes. By using the groups of characters in the individual lessons, one learns to differentiate between similar character sounds such as: e - dot, i - dot dot, s - dot dot dot, h - dot dot dot dot, etc.
