[Elecraft] ot u want lots youth to do Morse?

Yes, I love it, have often considered what it would take,... and the answer is almost nothing to implement. The telcos could charge for the the decoder.... and it could be another money maker, (how to sell the idea to the phone co.) The user would have the oppurtunity to use it, learn it, and do away with the decoder, (save money) At best it would allow more bandwidth on the current system for calls, (I know, someone will fuss with that, but that's ok, it works that way) the interference of talking on a cell phone while driving, may not be all that much different, however, you wouldn't have to have both hands on the phone to text, and that is a plus, while driving. The final touch would be marketing, and that is a slam dunk! for everyone, not to mention, that sense the 200 wpm barrier has been broken, cw is rather quick now.
