Richard,
Interesting comments about Morse.  I got first ham license at 12 and spent
many hours with the bug.  Forty years later, though I no longer have a
license or do much copying of code, I have lost little ability.  I used to
be able to copy about 30wpm even on a typewriter.  And I remember vividly
those 3 am sessions prying faint signals out of the ether.  I sure learned a
lot about geography and enjoyed the hunt and the mystery and the exotic
contacts.

PS.  need to get license again for sailboat cruising--still the best way to
communicate worldwide.  Hope I can get an old call sign back.
