A shining example of what can be achieved especially by a disabled person . It shows some radio amateurs up in a bad light!!!!!! on MF/LF some class A operators dont know a DIT from a DAH and I assume they are able bodied. It used to be that a class A amateur had an advantage over the general public by being able to converse in morse code, just like another language except it was totally international.
Even a worse senario, a lot of persons today cannot write, the norm is to use a keypad and send text messages using some abbreviated gibbirish, grammar is not required, sort of pigeon english.
