Off topic completely, but when I was in radio school in the Navy, I saw a Flash Gordon serial episode in the base theater. Flash was communicating on what they called a skilliascope. It output morse code at maybe one character very two seconds.
Of course, Flash read the message while it came in at the speed of normal speech, producing probably 20 words in 10 seconds.
The audience of ditty-catchers laughed in unison.
