My understanding is that the Koch method is about learning code at
full speed from the outset, but starting with just two characters and
building up from there. I'm using G4FON's Koch program, but kinda
mixing the two; koch & Farnsworth - I'm learning characters at 20
wpm , but with Farnsworth spaceing which reduces the actual speed to
about 10 wpm.
And I'm working up from there. The one problem is trying to understand
chars sent at 10 wpm - all the timing of each character seem wrong.

Thanks to using what I understood was the Koch method (which seems
pretty
much like your Farnsworth method) I have re-learnt the code so that
I can
now instinctively recognize letters, numbers and common punctuation at
around 20-25wpm. But I still get hung up converting the letters to
words at
that speed.

Yes, thats correct, my wife can sit, and drink coffee, and smoke a
cig. and read a book, while thinking about getting dressed, and what
to cook for dinner - all at the same time. Me, I just think about one
thing ....
