now there's a thought, definitely have to study for my advanced if for

was able to impart this pearl of wisdom:
>> Since the FCC decided to throw away Morse code, courtesy has all but

>> little places to go and have a CW QSO anymore.  Most of the CW ops 
>> nowadays seem to be contesters so you either join them or stay off the 
>> air.  There seems to be no place to go anymore on HF.
