Yes I have seen the latest FCC proposel and I myself haveing been a Ham for the last 37 years realy hate to see CW go. It is a mode of communacations that gets through when no other can. QRSS (VERY SLOW CW) is the only mode that can make a trans atlantic contact on the 2000 meter band (156 khz)with 100 microwatts of power. Thats .0001 of a watt. Just go and try that with single side band or packet. Thought I would put in my 2 cents. _ _ ... ..._ _
