[Yaesu] changes in rigs when CW dropped? W5YR

Yes,
I'm sure , that CW will always be on New Transceivers...  same as AM is
still on most Transceivers but naturally that is a different story all
together....
Maybe You are correct in assuming Hams think that if CW is dropped from
examinations that CW will cease or CW bandwidth will decrease, but its only
the CW examination that will be dropped...   NOTHING MORE...
