Default If you had to use CW to save someone's life, would that person die?

Many ham are American Red Cross first aid and adult CPR instructors.

That trumps CW at any speed.

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.

not even the Ham Code matter to them only CW


Part of that code is honesty. How honest is it to memorize answers to
a test?

How honest is it to memorize Morse code? Or should
Morse code be derived from first principles?

Lets face it folks to be a well rounded Ham one should learn CW. You never
know when it will come in handy. I am not that good at it, maybe a step or
less above a Novice, but I like to fool around with it. One ought to think
about learning it in do time even though it is not required.
My 2 cents worth.

Have you ever givin CPR to a person 500 miles away? You must have long
arms.
