Thank you one and all for your prompt and helpful replies.
To sum them up -
1. It will be bad news if I remove the paper from a loudspeaker - it will
stop working.
2. A visual method of reading morse would be helpful but I would rather use
vibration, but visual and vibration would probable be the ideal. I was
taught to read morse visually as well as audible morse whilst as a young 16 year
old Navy trainee. I have not done the visual bit since - but then I have not
tried the vibration method either - although a good friend of mine G3UFB now
tells me he experimented with it 10 years ago when I went deaf and reckons he
could read it at 18 WPM - but I haven't got the sensitivity in my fingers
that he seems to have. Hence my enquires regarding using a LOUD speaker..
3. WU7R tells me that a kit called 'son of zerobeat' is available and I
will no doubt purchase one.
4. Steve (AA4AK) has sent me an interesting article on Sensory substitution
- I shall endevour to understand this 6 page leaflet whilst imbibing my Xmas
Brandy. The further down the glass I get the more I will understand it. Thank
you Steve.
Again thankyou all - further suggestions would be most welcome.
Merry XMAS from John G4BOU
