Switzerland, the UK, Belgium, Germany and Norway have now abolished the
code test, and the Netherlands will follow shortly on September 1st. New
Zealand have said they will abolish the code test later this year.


When will the US get rid of the code test?

We are lagging behind.


Lagging behind what?

Don't take it for granted that the code test willl be
eliminated.


Why?

We don't have the metric system, which is clearly advantageous.


Which has what to do with Morse Code?
