Therein lies the solution to the problem. Make A1 the
only mode allowed within amateur radio - solves all
the problems, doesn't it? No more mode arguments, no
more band crowding, no more expensive equipment, ...
The list of advantages is virtually endless.

OK, fair enough.

The Amateur Radio Service of the 21st century will be all CW without a
Morse Code Exam.

We'll go out of existance EXACTLY like we came in.

I'm sure that will make the Morseodists happy.
