ADA wasn't needed because the FCC had already
provided a waiver process.

Did code waivers come first, or ADA?

I I think the ADA may predate waivers...
but that isn't of any importance anyway.

I think it is. IMHO anyway.

ADA didn't use any morse code after 1948.

The ADA didn't force anyone to immediately
do anything. Most or much of the ADA
impact has been with new accomodations.
Application of ADA in existing situations
has usually been the reult of a complaint by
an individual or a group of individuals.

Exactly - and *nobody complained*. It took
backdoor diplomacy by a foreign King to
get waivers, not advocacy by any US
group.

ADA still doesn't use any morse code.

ADA isn't subject to any "diplomacy" and is
responsible only to the United States Army as
Headquarters, U. S. Army Pacific.
