I dont think many people know morse code these days, apart from maybe some radio operators, I certainly dont and I dont think the masses do either.,
PS: The ham radio operators saved a lot of people durring the Katrina mess and the hurricane that hit puerto rica. Hams will be there when all other fails!! Have you noticed the First Net trailers being placed in position around the country now?
