I have no use for it anymore whatsoever! I dont care if they ban it or not....I could care less. As an Extra class op with 38 years as a ham I do what I want when I want to. You Earned that right too, when you passed the 20 wpm code test, and you should flaunt it around like I do. Here are some ideas I like: No-code hams should have to stand up salute when you walk into a room, even ones in wheelchairs. You get to sit in a chair at club meetings and if all the chairs are taken you can make a no-code or nickel ham sit on the floor. First in line for the refreshments, ahead of the 13wpm hams and the nickel hams is always nice too. Don't forget your cattle prod. 73 to you my extra class friend, you earned it. Everyone else these days just wants a welfare handout license. even you admited you are a bad ham you have also admitted you want to kill Ham radio Even the ones in wheelchairs... Now, get me some coffee and cookies, then sit over there on the floor. SC |

: "W3JLU Al" wrote in message ... I also have mastered CW very well and have used it many times in weak signal work on 2 meters. I have an Advanced license and never felt the need yo go beyond if for my purposes. As to whether I still feel it's a hugh priority, no I don't. With today's modes of communication it does seem out-moded. My typing is better than ever and many new modes use a keyboard. :-) JMO Slow Code is not a true Ham. From the time the first Ham was born true Hams have always used the latest and newest technology. Slow seems to be stuck back in the stone age , still using 4 pins vacuum tubes. Run along now to the radio store, they might have your appliance on sale. SC |
