Not too long ago, I was of that mind, but then I was able to see CW in action
in the 1997 F5 tornado in Jarrell, Texas. So, it was then I decided to get my
ham license (I got it in November of 1997). However, I didn't have time to
study the code yet and haven't had until now, with major life changes such as
a divorce and a move to reestablish myself.
Hopefully, I'll be able to get a tone generator soon and work on learning the
code the old fashioned way. ;)
