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

So did your guy die or not?


Which one? You win some, you lose some.


Huh? How can a fast CW op *not* save a life? Have you read this thread
at all?
CW = Gift of Life.
Fast CW = Hand of God.


Where did anyone actually say that in this thread?

It's in the Extra Class manual....

And that's why I'm watching TV from a 12ghz satellite signal right
now. Putting the antenna that high makes all modes pretty much equal
as far as signal-to-noise goes.


AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGH!!
Holy crap.... I hope no one else reads that.. It'll kill the entire
Comm-Post pile we're making, and then
people will just go back to swapping radios or something. [Perish the
thought!]

Well, at the moment my radio is on 3729 LSB. But it will shortly be on
3652 CW.
