[1000mp] FT1000MP Key Clicks

Tue, 31 Dec 2002 17:34:32 -0800

I would like to throw this little rabbit into the midst of the wolf-pack if
I may:

There is a strong chance that WRC-2003 or WRC-2006 will repeal S25.5 (the
requirement for Morse code proficiency as a precondition for access to the
amateur bands below 30 MHz). If this does occur, and the FCC does not
footnote the requirement back in for the US, it is highly likely that within
5 to 10 years of the change there will be precious little, if any, CW
activity left on the HF amateur bands. The whole question of key-clicks will
then become more or less irrelevant.

There is no doubt that this possible course of events has also come to the
attention of the product planners at the "Big Three".

Cheers for now, 73, Happy New Year,
Adam VA7OJ/AB4OJ
