JAMES, YOU'RE A GENIUS!

Now if we can only get one of our Engineers here to figure out a way to
convert the energy from pounding a code key, into electricity, we will have
(virtually) perpetual energy!  :=)

Heck... at that rate, you could power the receiver with one of those
hand-crank flashlight dynamo chargers . . .   but you would likely
have to really crank it while transmitting. . .

Probably inconvenient to be cranking while you are pounding
a code key.   So, never mind.

(ER... please forgive an old man's late night silliness...)
