There was a time astronauts were skilled and knew CW.

Did you mean to write:

'There was a time when astronauts were skilled and knew Morse Code.' ?

If so, let's add some other fun facts:

None of the Mercury, Gemini or Apollo astronauts was a ham. If they
knew Morse Code, it was because of their pre-NASA military training as
pilots.

We've had noncodetested Technicians as astroanuts since 1991 - almost
16 years ago. What's the problem? Are you just now beginning to figure
this out?

None of the spacecraft communications systems use Morse Code or HF.
They're all above 30 MHz.

As for being skilled - let's just say that all the astronauts have
quite an impressive skill set.

Could you do what they do? I think not.



NASA wanted me but I had to turn them down. To much work to do down
here on earth trying to educate radio amateurs on how to be better
radio amateurs.

But SC, you're much more like the solid rocket boosters....once they start
they don't stop, much like your mouth.
