SHSC Super High Speed Club
is a QRQ club for friends of CW speeds of at least 50 wpm.

Club Aims

The clubs were founded on March 20, 1982 in association with HSC (DARC)
and VHSC (VERON). They were created for every amateur who enjoys high speed
telegraphy to provide a stimulating challenge to achieve their highest
operating speeds and accuracy. Active members also encourage and help other
radio amateurs to use high speed telegraphy and to increase their speed.


Membership

The clubs consist of honorary members, active members and short wave
listeners, who all have equal status. The clubs are open to membership from
all countries and language groups.

In all cases, computers, keyboards or decoders are not allowed. Reception

cards, a signed statement declaring that computers or decoders were not
used during the sponsor QSOs and payment of $10 or equivalent in ( EUR10 )
