[Mldxcc] [NCCC] KALW An Ode To Morse Code

[Steve Dyer via Mldxcc]

Tom the curmudgeon :-).
Let's not lose sight that someone did almost 10 minutes long on morse!

What would be interesting is to see the actual number of morse operators today vs when morse was a commercial tool.

I listened to it right up to the point where the reporter chick said there
were only a handful of people who still used CW. She needs to hear CQ WW CW

quickly see why.
