Yes. That's understandable. Hams these days don't want to act like
hams, they like to be appliance operators. So kids don't see that CW
is important and fun. All they see is hams gabbing on a microphone
like any CB'er can do.

Actually a lot of tghe boy scouts know morse code, they still arent
intersted in ham radio.
Some old time ham in the area needs to step in and show the scouts how ham
radio and CW can save lives and help communities in emergencies.
Nickle Generals & Extra's have a hard time promoting amateur radio. All
they want to do is promote dumbing it down more. It's no wonder the scouts
aren't interested.
