Is morse code/slow morse still used anymore. If it is what frequencies can I
hear it on?


Have the maritime shore stations dropped Morse? I did a quick scan of
the 6,8,12, and 17 MHz maritime bands and all I could hear was TOR or
other FSK stuff. They used to put their calls out as as idle channel
markers and put out traffic lists with automated morse. (Easy DX and
a good way to check propagation).

A measure recently taken that will have repercussions that will
indicate exactly how severely your actions have impacted upon fellow
keyclowns.

This measure was taken in your honor. You'll be hearing about it, but
not from us.
