Good day folks..

I am curious I am currently stuck on 9wpm, and am seriously considering

the
purchase of an aid, to get me past this block. Any suggestions as to which
ones I should purchase?

Any help would be appreciated. Please if you are going to reply to me
directly, then please remove the N.O.S.P.A.M from the reply address.

Down load the G4FON software, which uses the Koch method for training.
Following the directions exactly. Don't add a letter too soon and don't
wait too long to add a letter. Set the letter speed on at least 15wpm.
Higher would be better if you intend someday to do contesting or high speed
CW.

It sounds like you got trapped by a method that allows you to count dots and
dashes or uses "sounds like" or "looks like" methods. Both of these create
a barrier at roughly 10wpm. If so, you are in the position of needing to
start from scratch so to speak and learn by sound only.
