Bill:
Frankly, I think you should have to take a CW test... IF, and I say IF,
you are going to use CW, and perhaps they can "CW certify" a person to use
code--otherwise let them only use phone and machine protocols...
Do you also think one should take a keyboard (i.e. typing) test to
certify ability to use digital modes?
How about a speed profficiency test for using phonetics
in voice mode?
Bottom line, there is no minimum code speed required
for anyone to use morse code as a ham. That is the
case now and has always been the case.
Cheers,
