[QUOTE="Dave70968, post: 3191363, member: 13624"] FWIW, Morse is still used in some real-world applications, not just in the amateur service. For instance, all aircraft navigational stations broadcast their identifiers in Morse; you're expected to A) listen for the presence of the identifier (the transmission is disabled if the station is out-of-service), and B) decode it to make sure you have the [I]right[/I] station. Granted, NDBs and VORs are going away, but they're not gone yet. [/QUOTE]
