I think that your proposal is mis-guided and based on misinformation.

As I understand it, the purpose of the event was to welcome newcomers to HF,
not to "celebrate the end of Morse code."

Clearly, welcoming newcomers to our ranks is something that we need to do if
we want ham radio to survive into the future. If newcomers are shunned, the
future of ham radio will be dismal.

The planned special event operation this weekend by the American Radio
relay
League to celebrate the "end of Morse code" is insulting and indicates the
organization's desire to divide the amateur community. As such we are
calling for amateurs worldwide to boycott ALL PRODUCTS advertised in QST
and
email the manufacturers that you are doing so and why you are doing so.
