Oh it's useful and if you want to use it that doesn't change. However a number of us are interested in the digital and experimental side of ham radio, for that morse code doesn't really offer anything and it's a non-trivial hurdle to cross.
The hobby already struggles with gatekeeping/driving off people who don't "ham right" and so making the hobby more accessible is a big positive in my book.
- lostapathy 3y agoExactly this. Current ham regs in the digital modes really, really limits what you can do, and keeps it in the dark ages compared to what goes on in 900mhz and 2.4ghz with unlicensed devices. We need to get back to where having a ham license means you can do cutting edge things!
- kmbfjr 3y agoGive it a rest. No one holds you back in amateur radio and if the comments of old farts bothers you, perhaps you need to evaluate what prompts them to tell you that. As long as you are Part 97 compliant, what exactly is your problem?
- vvanders 3y agoThanks for confirming that attitude still exists :)
