#378: Ham Radio: Measuring CW Keyer speed on the Elecraft KX2 and Penntek TR-45 Lite

This video shows how I measured the morse code keyer speed in my Penntek TR-45L and Elecraft KX2 QRP rigs. The Reverse Beacon Network spots always seemed to indicate a WPM (word per minute) speed that was faster than the speed setting on these rigs - so I wanted to measure them to see which was right. The basic timing calculations can be found in this web resource: The RF Sampler that I used is similar to this: Notes from this video can be found here:
