That says it all. CW is green. Hams interested in reducing global warming
will convert to QRP which operates much better under CW. Sure, I have no problem with those AM 1.5KW power hogs as long as they can spend the money but even affluent Hams with a conscience will convert to CW QRP to reduce energy. All hams should be given a carbon ration. Then, those who use tiny amounts of it on 5W CW QRP can sell their extra credits to allow the new and old uncoded 20m phone SSB blasters to continue their wasteful ways. Ham carbon credits could be traded and sold as a commodity at the ARRL site as a service. Solar, biodesil, ethanol, human powered generators and other carbon neutral energy sources would not need to accout for carbon ration questions. FCC would define an equitable ration for each ham. This might also inspire the creation of new off grid station power sources which would have several logistical advantages. How do you like my idea? :-) |
