thusly: " wrote in roups.com: Dee Flint wrote: "Opus-" wrote in message ... CW is as useful to todays Hams as carpentry is to a mechanic. A good thing to learn, and potentially useful, but should not be a barrier. This is where your analogy falls apart. CW is currently very useful to hams. It is in daily use. However, the arguments have already been presented and those with closed minds have rejected them. Pity the morse zealots and their closed minds... :-) Pity the lazy asses that just want to be appliance operators. They care nothing for the integrity of the service. Newsflash: ALL radio operators, code or no-code, are "appliance operators" as you colloquially state. A radio is a means to communicate. Knowing code just adds another way to use that radio. |
