Only a ham would have to think about that.

Shame on me for not doing the SKCC thing since last winter. I just visited their much improved website.
They have a "learning center" with practice audio files and a matching text file. The audio files are setup in "speed bands" like this:
War of the Worlds
- 01-Chapter 1 - 10 WPM/
- 02-Chapter 2 - 11 WPM/
- 03-Chapter 3 - 12 WPM/
- 04-Chapter 4 - 13 WPM/
- 05-Chapter 5 - 14 WPM/
- 06-Chapter 6 - 15 WPM/
- 07-Chapter 7 - 16 WPM/
- 08-Chapter 8 - 17 WPM/
- 09-Chapter 9 - 18 WPM/
- 10-Chapter 10 - 19 WPM/
- 11-Chapter 11 - 20 WPM/
- 12-Chapter 12 - 21 WPM/
- 13-Chapter 13 - 22 WPM/
- 14-Chapter 14 - 23 WPM/
- 15-Chapter 15 - 24 WPM/
- 16-Chapter 16 - 25 WPM/

Check out their list of text files:

Holy crap, how cool is that?
I know there are some SKCC "celebrities" on the IOMH because they have really cool numbers. I'm boring; 1068.
Only had a few QSO's with it. Schade, schade, schade.
#410...im special...in my own head. :lol:
I've downloaded Jabberwocky in the higher speed ranges.
I'm gonna annoy the crap out of my co workers. :lol:
Thanks for the heads-up. That wouldn't be a good practice package for me. I've got all those works memorized word-for-word so it wouldn't be very much practice! Unless, of course, they have it in a version written in some Eastern European language. THAT would be a challenge!
Use the AA9PW site and plug in your own text... grab something public domain from archive.org
Or maybe this program, I have not tried it. ebook2cw
