    EH@> I don't understand why someone would be against the no-code test. I was   
    EH@> a no code tech, and then I passed my General, but could not get passed   
    EH@> the code part, so I stayed a no-code tech until the requirement for the   
    EH@> code was dropped. I re-tested and passed (again), and now I am studying   
    EH@> for my Extra class. Would you rather let the hobby languish and   
    EH@> disappear than be invigorated with new hams? besides, most new hams I   
    EH@> have heard on the air, are much more appreciative of the privileges   
    EH@> that the so called 'original' hams.   
      
     People are learning the Morse Code now because they WANT to...NOT because   
   they HAVE to. I understand in the weeks surrounding the removal of the CW   
   requirement for U.S. Ham Radio Licenses, Vibroplex couldn't keep up with the   
   demand for CW keyers.
