The code was eliminated for one and one reason only, a certain
ethnic group claimed it discriminated against them. You can offer 1,000 other excuses, but that's the truth of the matter.

Not no more. What can be passed by CW that cannot be passed by voice??? Adhere to the ICAO's phonetic alphabet, and there need be no bi-lingualism nor a CW requirement. When things start failing communication wise worldwide, amateur radio might be all there is to relay messages, and the ITU just removed one of the legs of a three leg stool. Dear Slow, air traffic controllers don't use Morris Code, and they communicate with foreign speakers JUST FINE! |
