If one wishes to operate legally on 11 meters do not use CW or tone CW.
The only legal modes of communicating there is AM or SSB voice. Tone
maybe used as an alerting mechanism but not for other methods of
communication.

Even though licenses are not required and most (not all) persons don't
follow the regs there, if you are caught violating the regs there you
can be refused an Amateur License. It can and does happen from time to time.

This is true! As the man said, tho most don't follow them - they DO exist.
They WILL be enforced - if so desired. Actually, an infraction of any radio
rule can deem you ineligible for not only an Amateur Licence but also any
other license from the FCC - even GROL. IF you hold a GROL and do something
stupid with it, it can cause your "amateur" license to be stripped.
Ignorance is no excuse. When you sign the forms - and your license(s) - you
agree to abide by the R/Rs.

In "Indepedance Day" morse code saves the world from the alien
invasion! They made a movie about it so it must be true!

Apparently if you have been convicted of a felony anything you can loose
your license also.

If I recall correctly the IDF officer said the US was communicating in
"old fashioned morse code".

You're correct - and just a few days ago - there was a case of a "licensed"
individual who "allegedly" molested children and was convicted - the FCC was
debating renewing his license. So, it appears they take a dim view on
"criminals" being "license" holders. I guess they feel if you can't obey the
law of the land, why would you obey their rules and regulations! I wonder if
they take into account any one who's been convicted and had "successful"
rehab? That would be interesting to know.

I once seen a copy of the "code" used by other countries. There were
"some" - if not many differences. I also seen a copy of "supposedly" the old
west code - used .......... Man, what a difference - IF ALL WERE TRUE - that
is........ I'm only reporting what I seen, can't say for sure if true or
not. It was interesting to say the least.

Maybe - and I"m going on a limb here to guess - the "differences" in the
other countries code - was short hand much like our Q signals.
