This shouldn't take long. I shall use short words with few syllables so
that you can understand what I had said. Obviously you flew over it
without any REAL discrimination to the actual wording.

I never claimed you COULD send that with CW.
What I was saying is that the majority of the CW-using crowd is
trapped in a time warp that keeps them set back 30 years or so
(evident by thier "hell bent for leather" desire to keep cw testing
around), and wouldn't understand the concept of anything modern
(such as updating the various requirements in ham radio.

My advice, in the future, is to think before you talk, lest your
foot winds up in your mouth and you look silly.

"better to keep your mouth shut and have people WONDER
if your stupid, than to open it and remove all doubt."

Clint my man .....you should have followed your own advice and not posted
that glittering generality of a Mongolian Cluster ...... I really think your
are able to do better than that pathetic attempt to ruffle the CWist's
feathers ... The fellows who I know who operate CW do so in addition to
digital modes and various ones at that. I don't operate HF fone for various
reasons but I can say in all honesty that the primary reason is that I talk
all day. It is a refreshing break for me to get on an avocal mode and
communicate with a fellow ham ....but Clint I know you also never operate
fone as you know the superiority of digital modes and the inherent moderness
therein.
