The combination of reasonably priced mass produced typewriters and the invention of Horace Martin's "Vibroplex" telegraph key shortly after the turn of the 20th Century greatly increased the speed of transmission on press and commercial telegraph circuits, thereby extending the life of manual Morse telegraphy well into the post World War Two era (1970s and later). A good telegrapher or radio telegrapher (maritime, military, radio amateur) will typically copy a word to several words behind the Morse circuit on the mill, thereby allowing for accurate, error free copy...
