And how long would it take a "new" Ham to master using a keyboard?



We had a kid come on and operate psk31 almost immediately...(SNIP)



That's my point! Almsot anyone can do it. So why give it par-level
scoring with Morse Code?


Just seems like the ones I participate in give double for the CW. I'll
need to look some more.



I am contemplating a trip to VO1 for Sweepstakes this year. I had hoped
to go last year but a family emergency canx'd that idea. Not sure if I will go
for CW or SSB weekend, tho...Can't swing both!



Now that should be a cool trip. One of these years I want to make it to
Newfoundland.
