I had a morse key, sold it at a rally recently - got quite a lot for it surprisingly.  An old airforce brass pounder thing that some enthusiast wanted. 
I used to do CW occasionally.  Once took part in NFD (Farnborough club) station that came runner up on 80m back in the early 1980's.  That was my first and one and only exposure to contest CW ever - wouldn't want to do that again, ever ever.  Every bird was sending its callsign for days afterwards. 
 
Use CW on 10GHz when absolutely essential But I'd never use that mode for choice now when efficient narrowband data modes do the job a lot better.- its just not fun at all.   I just do not like it.  So you people who do like to use CW, please stop digging at those who take no pleasure in lilstening to on off tones and decoding by ear.
 
Its not a case of  "can't" , its "won't", do not like, using CW not fun !
 
Mind you. there's only one data mode on 10GHz that is useable when rainscatter comes into plays - that's JT4G with 315Hz tone spacing.  CW works almost as well, but I think JT4G still has the edge when tones are spread out to 200Hz wide.   S
 
Opera may work on 10GHz RS, have to try it one day.

This statement sounds like a self confessed Appliance Operator Amateur you could at least try CW for a while. Intensely dislike seems strong. I even tried Opera and do not dislike it or any Data mode but I prefer CW where the skill of the operator is evident when communicating instead of pressing GREEN for tx and RED for stop and AMBER for wait incase of a DECODE as in Appliance Operator.
I would encourage you to get a morse key and have a Go, one has to be positive !!

That''s OK Dave, if Mal's opinion won the day, then this amateur would never use the band.  I will not use Morse.  I intensely dislike it   So one way or the other one of us would populate the frequency. 
 
However, more than likely commone sense will prevail, as it always seems to in the Am bands and operating in this country,

If such a rule built into the permits for this band then this amateur
for one will never consider using it.
