Oh, contraire!
Larry Roll has set up many a scenario where not only is amateur radio
the ONLY means to save the day, but only ONE particular mode is
suitable to save the day.
He's done it again and again.
Are we Not to believe Roll?
Billy:
My "scenarios" are always built around a simple premise: That there is, in
fact,
a licensed (and CW-capable) radio amateur at the scene of my "scenario," that
he has functional radio equipment at his disposal, and prevailing operating
conditions preclude the use of voice modes such as FM or SSB. I don't recall
making any inference that CW is the "only" mode that can "save the day" ...just
that unless you know the code, you can't use it when you may need it!
