Default My Take on CW - for Powerhouse

You know, CW may be obsolete, but having to learn the code instilled a
bit of discipline and sense of purpose in getting a ham license. Of
course things like mathematics, science and such that require mental
discipline are no longer politically correct so are generally not
required in education today because we certainly don't want to bruise
anyone's ego or tax their MTV indoctrinated brains. So, I guess the
code will have to go.

No matter what facet of radio you enjoy, the topic is to protect it by
improving the quality of the hobbiests involved. That's why most will
agree if you know morse code, you'll be a better skilled hobbiest and will
improve your nich of the hobby and/or radio service you're involved with.
A valuable knowledge base for those of coming into the services and
hobby.

Tnx, 73 Good luck in the contest.
