I was 14 years old when I got the ham "bug", and found a HS class to

I'm left-handed and I can square dance, but only because some guy up on
the stage is telling me exactly what to do next. I also can't sing,
however I can paddle CW with either hand and often do. My wife is
right-handed and has yet to thoroughly master the concept of "right" vs
"left."

cadence marches on the wrong foot, and for the same problem, I have
trouble with dance steps. YMMV.
There are other things I do well, so I consider i

That's interesting...
I'm currently in the process of learning CW and this is the first time I heard
of "learn to send first" approach.
As I'm getting close to finishing the alphabet and can copy short 3/4/5-letter

Hi All,
I've taught many hams CW over the years & my mantra is to first properly
learn to send each character: There is a definite rhythm to each. Find a
