QSO Text Files for G4FON's Morse tutor software
Bill (G0ELZ) as produced a large text file full of QSO format passages, these are a great way to practice your receiving skills by loading them into a morse translator or better still use them with G4FON suber Morse traing package for the PC. Bill has given permission to host these on my site for FISTS which I am very glad to do. Feel Free to download them by clicking on the FISTS Logo.
Infomation from Mason...
I recently received an email from a young Scout by the name of Mason who was working on his "Signs, Signals and Codes" merit badge. He found some of the information on this page of help to him and sent me a link to a very useful resource he found on the web.
The resource is FULL of very interesting and useful information and so I have put the link to it below.

Thanks to Mason (and his Mom Selena) for taking the time to send it in so others can benefit from this.

A great Morse tutor package you can download. (Its Free too!)
This is the best PC Morse tutor I have seen. I recommend this one. This is a great way to learn, Use this at home when you can and then when you know the sound of the letters use one of my Tutors, You get the best of both worlds.
