subject: Hello

BA> JV> Oh, you can't just do it in your head?  :)

BA>Uh, no.  I can - or could - read Morse code from an automorse receiver tape
BA>(it's a paper
BA>tape printed with what looks sort of like a square wave), I can - or could -
BA>send it.  But I have *never* been able to 'hear' it, and I've tried mightily
BA>Back in 1965 the Morse
BA>operators in the outfit tuned in an aircraft beacon for me and it took me
BA>nearly five minutes
BA>to decipher the three letters that beacon was sending over and over and over

There are some Brins in the World where Morse just dosen't compute.
Saddly I have one. I tried to get the code down the First time in 1947
and failed. In the interviening years I have tried off and on but
Nothing works.
