Now that Morse Code must compete in a free market, it is up to the
enthusiasts to promote the mode. Many of your arguments in favor of
Morse Code were legitimate for the promotion of the mode, but not for
the retention of a stand-alone Pass/Fail Exam which denies access to
the MF/HF privileges to many. The FCC finally ruled on it, without all
the usual fanfare, comment period, and at least on the sidelines, lots
of argument and name calling.

So, its time to go forth and multiply. The converts you get will do so
for the love of the mode, not because the government made them do it to
gain more voice priveleges.

Best of Luck.
