What makes you think that real CW ops won't learn/use manual Morse
if the mandatory testing requirement is dropped?

I might even use it if the test is dropped! Some of these guys are
terrified that they will have no-one to work. Not that I would want to

work
Dan, who is on record as saying that all phone ops are lids..


Good Hams that know CW are more than willing to reduce speed (QRS). In fact
real CW ops know that it is idiotic to keep sending faster than your contact
can receive. It's a waste of time.

As for you not wanting to talk to me for saying my opinion of phone only
ops. That's ur choice Alun. And your loss. You would enjoy working W4NTI
on CW.
