John,

Since you know what each letter stands for.  Move on up to whatever you want 
to achieve.  Of course if you wish to stay with the "See Spot Run Fellows" 
does not really matter.
If you wish to copy words and have enjoyable QSO's then you head for approx 
55 WPM.  Thats the  approximate  break point where you listen to words and 
not have to put characters together which is more taxing to your mind.
Main thing RELAX your mind and if you miss a word or character dont dwell on 
what it was.
I can say that now but most of my life was having to copy coded groups and 
be correct.  So accuracy was paramount, speed secondary.  Not so for for 
casual conversation, at 60, 70 or above wpm you can even misspel words now 
and then and it will not even be noticed.
After many years of bugs and paddles I find keyboard sending and pair of 
headphones for listening more interesting.  I took typing in high school 
many years ago so I could copy code.
If you wish any more information or desire further discussion lets do it 
direct.  Lyle W9FCX qskqrq@grics.net
