It's extremely difficult to copy high speed CW like that if the signal is strong, but a weak signal or slower CW is just as easy to copy as noise as it is to copy as a pure tone. T1 doesn't mean uncopyable, it just means ragged tone. So now amateurs and SWL's should be Morse code proficient not only using tones but using the swishing sound made when a BFO is not present? The swishing sound is coming from aliens. Try making the same sounds back to them.

Why Should Only White Males "Know" CW ? ? ? - Women and Minorities Need CW Too ! ! !

We can call it the Uniform Education "Code" {CW} Law -and- Require that No Child Is Left Behind the "CW" Learning Curve ! Why should only White Males 'know' CW ? ? ? Equality Demands that Women and Minorities "Know" CW Too ! ! ! - - - We need an Urgent National Federally Funded Program to Close the "CW" Gap [.] oops - am i ranting ? ? ? . . . oh never mind ! ~ RHF |
If you had to use CW to save someone's life, would that person die?

.net: Slow Code wrote: SWL's should learn CW too. You never know when you might stumple across a station in distress sending an SOS and you might be the only one that hears it and can get help. SWL's normally listen to AM stations. How would they hear a CW station? Many SWL's are Ute listeners. They are the ones most likely to stumble across an SOS. Just like a person isn't a real ham unless they've passed a code test, a shortwave listener isn't a real SWL unless their receiver has a BFO. (SWL's who listen to shortwave with antique receivers are exempt.) SC |

There's no way you could have passed the written, let alone CW. May the lord bless and grant us peace from the mental illness that traps you by pulling the plug on your internet. |

That trumps CW at any speed. lol thank you for that I guess saving lives is saving lives only when it uses CW. Those firemen are way out of their league when compared to this bunch. |
