"First a strong belief that Morse testing is the big difference between
Amateur Radio and the Russian version of Citizen's Radio Services.

The Russian Federation also points out that lowering the code requirement in
many other nations has not led to a significant increase in the number of
hams in those countries.

The Federation says that it surveyed Russian radio operators and found
overwhelming support for retention of the code and the Russians say Morse is
one of the most effective means of communication in emergencies with clear
benefits in reducing interference on the high frequency bands".
