Subject: Old Ham Radio Movie

Here's the rest of the story. Clyde de Vinna's carbon monoxide  
poisoning was
not recognized by his verbal cries for help.  He wasn’t on phone, he  
was on
a key at the time and his sloppy fist is what caused the other op to  
realize
something was wrong. See Chapter 5 of Clinton DeSoto's "Calling CQ" at
http://www.qsl.net/ng3p/haminfo/desoto/chap5.html

Long live CW.

Here is some interesting history:

A short distributed by Metro Goldwyn Meyer in 1939. (?)

It's about 10 minutes long.
