Morse had become merely a licensing hurdle, Farnsworth a testing
scheme. Now if anyone bothers to learn Morse, it will be to use it.

You know something? Your probably right....and actually that is a good
thing.

People may not always agree with my opinions, but that's OK with me.

There were plenty of Code Tape Extra's out there who never worked a dit
in their lives.

Of course there were/are. Lots of folks never cared a lick if they actually
operated CW or not. And to them it was a hurdle to do 13 or 20.

But to those select few that actually enjoyed the mode it became a real pain
hearing about how hard it was to learn, how useless, how unnecessary, etc.

Now perhaps the debate will finally END. And those that like CW can
continue to enjoy it. And help those that want to learn it, learn it, and
also enjoy it. And use it and not have to put up with all the whinning any
longer.

You are an optimist Dan! The whining has only begun. Those writtens are
just too darn HARD!

Why?

I hope so.

I certainly hope so.

Just one question; why must I have learned Morse Code for you to enjoy
CW use?

And help those that want to learn it, learn it, and
also enjoy it.

I hope so.

And use it and not have to put up with all the whinning any longer.

That's a change of tune from you. When you're right, you're right!

b.b.:

Uhhh, we "code tape wizards" and "computer taught b*st*rds" are "out there"
(more ways than one, I suppose), and if a code reader can't display it on the
screen--we can probably live without those "words of wisdom."

Art Bell said, "CW is dead!" If Art Bell (even more trustworthy than Santa and
the New York Times!) says it, Victoria, it is true!

I have no problem with folks wanting to use CW. It just ****es me off
when they make claims of intentionally sending code so poorly that a
pimply-faced No-Code Tech with a code reader can't listen in.
