Thanks Keith I'll add those to the copout list.

BTW SSB is probably 30 or 40 years old.

Better check you receiver and antennas -- the bands are loaded with CW
activity.

Morse code is horse and buggy technology. If you want to pass a vehicle
driving test maybe you should learn to ride a horse to obtain it? You
never
know when all the oil will dry up and you need to mount a horse to get to
work.
Listen to the morse code bands in the USA the signals are few and far.
3.600-3.725 MHz is a vast wasteland of morse code bandwidth that is hardly
used.

The 80M band is a wasteland all over the band. Try 30M -- hi hi. 20M has a
lot of activity also.

I worked a C6A from here in California on 6M CW -- ssb was buried in the
noise.
