Me neither, I'm just going by what the Copyright Date on the Collins
book and what is written in the front pages of the A.R.R.L. books about
when their "Handbook" was created.

 <BG> is easier written and read, hi.

I knew that You and some of the others here could decode my Morse msg
for the word  GRIN  without looking at a Chart, and to create a puzzled
look on the readers of my msg that feel like CW is a Lost Art.

IIRC an old "Carl and Jerry" article told of them tearing into a
portable AM radio and modifying it so they could send an Emergency
Message on the local CW Traffic Net Frequency to get some needed help.

They did that because they didn't have any Ham Gear with them, just the
portable battery powered radio.
