Whichever is the case, the remedy to guarantee that Ham Radio
remains the preserve of Radio Hams and not as CBers-masquerading-
-as-Radio-Hams is to increase the proportion of CW QSO's, to refuse
anything
other than CW for DXCC, and for all contests to become CW.

By this means, all those who spent their time whingeing rather than
proving their devotion to Ham Radio will be forced to learn CW at
a respectable WPM rate anyway.

Fine by me - never operate anything else ...
