If code is eliminated the riff-raff that will overrun the bands will drive
a lot of people out of amateur radio. It's bad now even with a 5wpm code.

Back when I got my license there was alot of technical discussions,
experimentation and lot of hams improving their communication and
technical skills. Now with 5 wpm, convertions are mainly about appliance
operating, or how someone did something stupid and burned up their rigs,
things just like you can hear on CB.
