Do you think no-codes give the impression that ham radio is just a bunch
of appliance operators?

Group poll.
 

Code or no-code it's largely been a bunch appliance operators having
their "slam bam thank you mam" QRM contests for the last 15 years. The
no-code situation is just going to exacerbate this. Just refer to it as
"CB extra class!"

JS, why are ya putting up with the "BS"? Let's forget him and start using
this group for what it was meant for. His comments are null and void. The
argument is a horse killed many times over. This has been going on for
"months". Time to move on. Nothing is going to change from this "crap" and
besides, he has yet to prove to anyone - he even had/has a license.

No, not at all.

I've been a radio amateur for more than 39 years, and have known
"appliance operators" of every license class. They are no more
prevalent among Technicians than among any pther license class.

How about a positive suggestion?

I think that when we call anyone we should always identify our stations in CW.
There is no requirement to use SSB to identify when on SSB. So, try using CW for
all station ID requirements.

BTW, I'll slow down to 20 wpm.

Any interest?

Depends. Have you built and operated any radio gear lately?
