Too bad the ARRL has put itself in such a bad situation. As soon as morse
code
is removed from HF operating requirements those that are mad about the
ARRL not
stopping code removal will quit. All those no code techs and new hams that
come
into the hobby will never join a organization that did everything it could
to
keep the average citizen out of the HF bands. The ARRL has kept ham radio
in
the dark ages by requiring horse and buggy morse code technology.

I was not aware that the ARRL was responsible for keeping the code
requirement. All this time I thought it was the FCC. Dang....thanks for
the correction Keith.
