The method of teaching was PRT (Pattern Recognition Technique) [again, IIRC!] I think the standard to achieve was 12wpm transmit, and 14wpm receive, but happy to be corrected. As an aside, does the P8 Poseidon have morse capability?
Certainly PRT was the method used at Cosford to teach morse to B/E telegs, a long time ago but IIRC 24wpm plain language was the standard.
