I never took lessons, but I can sit down at a piano and play a melody
by ear. I recall a discussion, around the RUFZ computer, about this
in the contesting suite at Dayton several years ago. Seems some kind
of music aptitude is present in most high speed CW guys. I'm good to
about 75-80 WPM (CW, not RTTY, hi).
