Default CW isn't preventing the modernization of ham radio. Laziness is.

LOL!

I laugh when you lazy asses whine CW is keeping you from modernizing.

The code requirement isn't stopping anyone from modernizing. Hams don't
want to modernize and won't modernize unless they're forced to modernize.
That's what's stopping the modernization.

How does having a CW requirement prevent you from hooking a computer to a
rig? It don't. You don't want to modernize because you're stupid or lazy.
Just like you don't want to learn CW because you're stupid or lazy.

Naw, CW makes it too easy to communicate. CW is for lazy people. Real
hams want to struggle to copy signals through noise and QRM. That's
why they hate CW... it's no challenge!

Nonsense. Having to do something promotes laziness? Then exercise
promotes sloth and dieting promotes obesity. By your "logic", that
is.

Or when a couple ops with amplifiers move in a little too close to your
on-going qso. That does make things tough, and then they laugh at you
when you politely ask them to move up the band a little. LOL

LOL! It started a long, long time ago.

When gasoline was 17 Cents a gallon, hams were complainining about how
hard it was to get to the FCC office and wanted a mail-order license.
The conditional was born.

It's been downhill ever since.

Nonsense.


indeed the idea that refusing to expand ones horizon is nonsense


The idea that testing someone promotes laziness is nonsense.

Having to do something promotes laziness?


nope not chnaging and resting on lareuls does


So resting on your laurels and not learning CW promotes your laziness.
That's what I said and you agree.

not the test that was the subject
use of the mode promotes lazness


Learning something promotes laziness? Typical.

learning CW promotes laziness


Yep, as I said, typical. Of a lazy person. Learning doesn't promote
laziness, laziness promotes not learning.

Some German General went on the record as preferring
his officers to be *intelligent and lazy*. He said the most
dangerous officers are the ambitious and stupid ones.
Now if I could just remember his name.
