Who wants to use Morse code?

I do ! And furthermore, neither YOU nor nobody else can stop me.

It may be just the few of us.
My father directed artillery fire from a spotter plane with a key on a leg
strap.
Therefore I learned the code and the alphabet simultaneously.

I recall an article in Electronics World from 1962 referring to the genesis
of CB:

"The electronics industry needed a shot-in-the-arm." IIRC

The rule-makers "stabbed themselves in the back with their own ballpoints."
I will never forget that phrase; no "IIRC" needed.

I am still laughing.
