New club for Morse enthusiasts

If people don't use CW, it's because they don't want to, not because someone won't let them. I think that Jeff was referring to the club in question, not to CW in general. At least for me, the issue is promotion of the mode, how new Ops might be brought into the mix. For some folks, this is not an issue, for others, it is a concern. Some of the concern might be historical, some folks just happen to like something, and therefore like to promote it. But some of us believe that the mode has merit, and would like to see it continue. Now that element 2 is history, how do we promote the mode? I believe it does need a little promotion, at least at the present time, because there is a pretty big gulf between people like me, people that don't know it at all, and the really proficient operators. There aren't all that many people in the middle any more. Perhaps after a new balance is achieved, there will be less need for promotion, but at present, I believe it is critical. We don't need to convince the already proficient, we need to work with the new people. - 73 de Mike N3LI - |
