CODE....OR NO CODE??????

I enjoy CW as I find Morse code a very effective and efficient mode, which to date, has yet to be superseded by other forms of communication that can be proven to be as bandwidth efficient; effective during poor band conditions and can provide the higher QSO rate during expeditions and contests, as CW. CW continues to demonstrate higher efficiency then any voice mode. All amateurs should allow themselves to understand and be able to use CW in some level of proficiency to complete the balance of communication modes offered and used globally. Morse Code has and continues to contribute to the advancement of the radio art/hobby through the development and advancement of newer and more exciting digital modes. CW continues to evolve info more modes of communication whereas archaic voice modes continue to remain stagnate; a very inefficient form of communication which has been proven to be unreliable, difficult to use in poor band conditions, exhibiting limitations and obstacles. This is not a code-no code debate. These are just FACTS; give it a try. Once you understand the benefits, you will love the mode. But IF IF IF you asked me about a code requirement...I would give you a choice.... Either bring back the code requirement OR get rid of the ridiculous MEMORIZING OF THE DAMN tests! Learn it or play checkers.... And people want to know WHY THE HOBBY IS NOW FULL OF REDNECK, COUNTRY, UNDER-EDUCATED, NO ELMERED HAMs.... Come on people.....you all can't be that stupid!!! BAA
