I still miss that 500 kHz chatter

Non-revenue chatter on the marine CW frequencies in the 50's ran
anywhere from 10 to 35-40 WPM. The Company urged revenue traffic in
the 18-20 WPM range. They'd found that speed range maximized traffic
throughput over time. Of course, revenue traffic was almost always
longer than "5NN TU". [:-)

Try sitting down for eight (8) hours on MF (500KHz) during the summer
months
as I have done frequently while @ WPA/Port Arthur TX working for RC
