I personally don't have the desire to "take advantage of" CW.


No problem ....

nothing more than a necessary evil--a means to an end--to licensing in
amateur radio.


Evil .... Satan is evil .... I find no mention of CW in the Bible being the
preferred mode of the anti-Christ ....

I also found it uniquely lacking in any pertinent
application to the process of amateur radio, overall.


Pertenent as of pertaining to ...I suggest Kim that you turn on your
receiver and listen to the CW activity that is there ...albeit contesting.
Wall to wall signals and on 30 meters essentially likewise for those who
don't contest. I really get tired of the old CW is dead ...AKA pertinent to
ham radio. Especially since the squashing of this myth is just a turn of
the knob away for those who have the ambition to do so instead of repeating
untrue crap.

CW is a wonderful skill to have if one enjoys communicating with it.


What you don't use you loose but in a lot of ops cases they will never loose
it because they never had it to begin with ...... therein lies the real
sadness.
