QRQ, When You Want To Go Fast!

Terry Jackson spent eight to ten hours a day head copying Morse code at 50 words-per-minute... and got paid to do it! His job as a Naval
Communications Officer was to intercept coded messages being sent from
Russian ships during the Cold War. Today, Terry teaches Amateur Radio
operators how to send and receive high speed Morse code, or QRQ as it's
called by Morse code operators. But what is QRQ? The idea of high speed is relative to each of us. High speed operating can mean 70 words-per-minute
to one person, and be 30 words-per-minute to another. No matter what your definition of high speed QRQ operating is, going fast is a lot of fun and
can be done by virtually anyone. We invite you to enjoy this very
interesting conversation with Terry Jackson, WB0JRH.
