NO! I can't have a QSO with a no-code ham.
They can't copy CW!!! So, No QSO! How do you know? Just because they aren't licensed doesn't mean they can't copy CW. My officemate has no license at all but thanks to the military can probably copy better than I can. I'm not licensed to do LOTS of things that I can do. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra.

NO! I can't have a QSO with a no-code ham.
They can't copy CW!!! So, No QSO! Many use "QSO" as a signifier of a "Voice" contact as well, so "why" couldn't you have a "QSO" with a "NO CODE" Tech? Now, if the question were a QSO with one on a band he wasn't licensed to use, then the answer "could" be NO. BUT - if he has a "Control Operator" there with him to allow his use of that band, then by all means - the answer is still "yes". Its all in how it is looked at. Too many people split hairs............ |

Telephony has saved magnitudes more lives than CW. If you are CW only, you are not properly equipped to even attempt to save lives. -- 73, Cecil http://www.w5dxp.com |

How does one say mayday on CW? My radio only works on the bottom 25 KHz of the HF bands. Hmmmmmm - my how we belabor a point. MAYDAY IN CW = SOS............ SOS is usually sent in those cases. SOS for the CW and Mayday for radiotelephone. MAYDAY is "also" asked about in some RadioTelephone license exams for "marine" use and is even becoming part of the Fire service. There is a test specifically for "Mayday" and its uses. Mayday is "generally" used in "airplane" emergencies. |
