5:55 WZ6T returns with my call sign but the last character he still needs, in his transmission he sends KI5JU? You can hear the question mark with Mnemonic phrase "Did the Good Dog eat it?"

This videos lets you listen to me answering CQ call from
California, the caller was sending faster than I could receive, but once we made exchange he slowed down and I was able to work him.
There is a difference when sending when you on the air, what comes natural in practice sometimes doesn't when you on the air that's why there were some gaps in my sending I could not recall immediately what rhythmic Mnemonics I used for character recall
This video shows some ideas for building some interest in slow speed CW practice on 10m. I have found and some buddies have said that there can be a lot of activity around 28.050 for slow speed. I have also found many slow speed folks learning have a membership to Straight Key Century Club and share numbers during the QSO exchange similar to 10-10 numbers.
Straight Key Century Club My Member is SKCC 28058
