It is not needed that I know CW in order to operate at all. Indeed even if we don't stick to band plans I don't need to be able read a CW signal to know it is there, and reconize the frequency is in use UNTIL the Code requirement is abolished for good - the is no need or proper reason if you prefer that wording http://kb9rqz.blogspot.com/ -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com OK, I'll buy that - but again, until the code {exam} is "ABOLISHED" - we are "required" to have it for H.F. I WILL agree, once many pass their code exams, they never see a key or listen to a code tape - again........... For what it is worth and THIS I've not kept up with - I have heard that there is a move afoot - by the FCC themselves - to abolish the code requirement. For some strange reason, September or October of this year comes to mind. I guess we'll have to wait and see. L. |
