It seems a little odd for people to get stuffy about 73 vs 73's, when
both are designed for Morse CW.

If you are speaking, neither is "correct".

When was the last time you heard 73's sent on CW? Of course I have
only been licensed for 52 years, so I will have defer to those more
senior than me.

It's OK - we didn't ask Mike anyway. He probably doesn't use CW or he
would realize that "73" is always used on CW, but on phone it is
quite commonly stated as "73s" whether the whiners like it or not!

Merry holidays!
