[Elecraft] CW in Emergencies?

[EricJ]

The riff raff was deeply entrenched on 75 before VEC. I never tuned it for
visitors as there was always something embarassing I had to explain away.
Some of the AM vs. SSB wars on 75 were truly twisted events during the
transition.

The code requirement hasn't been an effective riff raff filter and it hasn't
provided skilled traffic handlers in emergencies so it is no wonder the
REQUIREMENT is going by the way side. By all indications, Morse itself is
very alive and doing well.

This is definitely **not** a certainty, since the VEC process took over the
operator licensing exam process.
