The other night I was working on my KX-1 
and had hooked it up to an antenna for the first time.
There was not a CW signal to be found. 
Just to check, I tuned in Radio Aussi on 7240kc, with a different radio
even.
It had a booming signal.
Just no hams on the CW portion of the band.   :-(

Imagine my delight this weekend when I plugged in my radio to the
antenna again,
RTTY all over the place.    :-)
It was so crowded they were pushing down into the CW
part of the band.  
SO there are still home hams out there. 
How refreshing.
How delightful.  
Correct me if I am wrong, but There are no lack of places for a CW
operator to work?
 CW is allowed ANY where in the Ham band?

Thanks,

Soon to be re-learning the CW aspects soon.
