How many years have you been performing QRQ CW

I am not entirely sure what "performing QRQ CW" entails. I have been (attempting) to become proficient enough in CW to head copy at 40 wpm for about 10 years

Your favorite key, paddle or bug

I have a clone Bencher paddle.

Your favorite cw sending software

Prefer sending by hand.

Your Rig, Antenna and RF Power

Various radios at 5-10 W. I have a 80 meter dipole at roughly 50 ft.

What has been your most effective way of training practice, to copy and send qrq cw

I have a W8BH keyer for sending practice, and have used just about every copy practice method available online. I suppose I would consider Morse Code Ninja as the most effective.
