You can't copy PSK31 in your head.
You can't copy PSK31 from a flashlight.
You can't copy PSK31 from touch.
You can't copy PSK31 from sound.
You can't copy PSK31 to fight sleep on long trips.

You can't send PSK31 by touching two wires together.
You can't send PSK31 by honking a horn.
You can't send PSK31 by pressing a buzzer.
You can't send PSK31 by light bulb.
You can't send PSK31 by touch.
You can't send PSK31 by tapcode in a Vietnamese prison.
