Morse included on the Dutch amateurradio license?

    I got the message that fellow CWops CW intermediate course participant PA8E Jim has passed his CW exam last weekend. You can read his adventure here: https://pa8e.nl/morse-certificate/

   I never fully understood how to get "CW included" on your license here in my country. Since you can't do any CW exams here in my country. I knew there was a way going to Belgium for the exam. When passed the exam ask for a "CW included" on your license showing your CW certificate to the Dutch authorities. But how? My assumption was always that you needed at least do the CW exam for 12 wpm. But it seems that it is not needed. If you passed the exam with 5 wpm it is enough. However 5 wpm is not really 5 wpm but 5/12 wpm, so it is a little faster. Not expected but I learned that besides the 26 letters/10 numbers you need to know the questionmark, the slash and 6 prosigns. The prosigns are BT, AR, AS, BT, HH (error correction) and SK.I've listened a example soundfile and dicovered that they used a lot of QSO elements in the text. Like QRG, TEMP, CQ, PSE, 73 etc. This makes it easier of course, though you don't know when those words will appear... You also need to write while decoding, I've tried this and found it difficult. I'm used to typing in LCWO and writing while decoding needs another mind setting. Something I should train more often.

With this info in my mind and now written here in my blog I might do the exam some year in the future. The CW exam in Belgium is only held once a year.
