Morse Code is *not* slower than "all" modes. Tis very true, but without any practical experience, how would he know??? Common sense, for one thing. Or intelligent observation. That is in rare supply. Suppose two people who can only hunt-and-peck type at 10 wpm sit down at a 100 wpm RTTY setup. The system then becomes a 10 wpm mode. Morse Code can easily go three times that fast and more. Indeed. And indeed rtty can go three times as fast as that. The limiting factor is, as you pointed out, operator skill. So I give back to you the example of a CW Operator who only knows Morse at 10WPM. I am now sitting down, calmly waiting for your observation. Therefore, Morse Code is not slower than all other modes. FAX is pretty slow until you try it by sending an image as a digitized file via CW. Encoding all of those x,y coordinates and a grayshade from 0-255... And WHY do you bother responding to him, Jim? To correct some of his mistakes - without shouting, name-calling, or insulting. I have now responded to you without Steve's shouting, or name-calling, and hopefully without you taking offense. Plus typing practice. Can you type faster than you can send CW? This, like most of the rest of the lengthy Lennie-vs-The World post, is that same as the rest. Just wondering, since you've made it a point of tweaking ME on several occassions over the very same thing. Don't you see a difference in the method - and the volume of posting? 73 de Jim, N2EY I certainly do. Call it "intelligent observation." bb Not only don't I see "civil discourse," I sense an unwillingness for you to discuss your own Morse Code statements. Don't expect him to. :-) Too much logic to overcome. |

I think Jimmie is running for Presidency of the newsgroup or something and is busy, busy calling everyone who does not agree with him as "wrong," "in error," or "you don't know anything about it due to 'no experience'!" :-) Hi hi. |

He can count out any ARRL appointment after his "~morse code test is a disincentive to morse code use~" idea. |
