Do me a favor, John, and tell that to K2RSK next time you see him!
Who?
Larry was referring to Peter Liaros, K2RSK, a gentleman who both Larry
and myself know personally. Peter happens to be a rather gifted CW
operator - this is a guy who can and does operate 40m mobile CW and
who is good enough at it that he can do it while driving and not be a
hazard to other drivers. Peter undoubtedly would quickly disagree with
the notion that *nobody* uses CW anymore, and he would, of course, be
absolutely correct.
However, Larry's comment ignored the fact that what I posted was that
nobody *else* makes much use of CW anymore - i.e. within government,
commercial, military radio use, or anywhere else outside of the
ARS...which is also absolutely correct.
