Answer the question, stupid. What is the specific reason for learning an obsolete mode of communication?

Face the facts: morse code is obsolete, it has been for a long time, and the only ones who demand that the newbies learn it are 60 year old hams who had to learn 20wpm for their ham test in 1962. Code still has a few applications, yes-specifically airplane waypoint beacons, which broadcast in code. But those aren't actually copied by the pilots, instead a light goes on in the cockpit when the plane passes over a beacon, so the pilot knows he's on course. But for ham applications, and marine distress signals, and most everything else, it's obsolete. It's a requirement that was useful in 1920, but it's outlived its usefulness. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |
