These postings are (or soon will be) available, courtesy of the Boston

On the other hand it is a very efficient code. Since it is variable lenght
it is kind of a built in compression. The most used letters have the fewest
elements. It is much more efficient than ascii, baudot and other fixed
length codes. It is also very precise as toi length and timing by
defintions. If it is machine sent it is one of the best codes around and was
created many years ago.

That's right, the FCC doesn't require the level of copy from amateurs that
is required from military or commercial operators, and never has. My test
in 1963 consisted of 5 letter code groups, sent and received, though I
understand some field offices were using plain text tapes on their
Instructographs. Since the amateur service is supposed to be "self training",
the exams are merely entrance exams. You're not expected to have developed
complete mastery until you've actually done the "learning by doing" on the air.
