[TenTec] FCC says CW dead? Naw...

[Ira Franklin]

Guys you know it was an amazing thing before the sub bands came about I dont remember any great big problems, so why does the thought process have to be that it going to be a disaster.  And the statment " all those new extras who memorized the test"  that was the problem that incentive created   - a caste system where your not as good as me because you dont have the same grade license I have or you passed a slower code speed. I firmly believe that the largest majority of hams in this country passed their test my memorizing answers. So what is the big deal.
  As some one said earlier this is a hobby or is supposed to be any way

It will make a difference for those who do operate CW, because there are 
no CW exclusive sub-bands. All those new "Extras" who have passed the 
memorization tests and have hooked up their computer sound cards to 
their radios, many with no understanding of TX audio level setting, will 
have legal access to the entirety of the HF spectrum. Remember to 
operate digital modes no speaker is required. Those CW signals on their 
waterfall displays will not bother them at all.
