Actually CW spotting:
Modern: "Enemy of the State" starring Gene Hackman and Will Smith: The
ubiquitous all seeing spy satellite that constantly sent "CQ" in high
speed CW.
Ancient: "On the Beach" atomic submarine tracking erratic CW from bombed
out US finds working transmitter with coke bottle tied to window shade
and resting on still working CW key and transmitter. Sailor who
discovers this rapidly sends "coke bottle on key". Gregory Peck waits
two seconds and adds, "Window shade tugging on coke bottle." I actually
impressed my date with ability to copy the code.
