How does one comment?

I was just about to engage in my code-learning phase of rehab, my
typing having been authorized, and my waiting only for the return of my
laptop with the installed nav software before beginning.

I was quite happy to learn the code - but find it a total anachronism
today.

YO! Skip! Welcome back! Just be patient. FCC is, once again, going to
be telling archaic ARRL to take a hike. It's 30 years too late, but
they're coming around.

Ham radio is dying of OLD AGE and FCC know it.

I know code is a waste of time but all you need currently is 5 wpm.
You can get to 5 wpm in a day. They do it at the Pacificon expo here
in the SF bay. At 5 wpm you can copy individual characters or even
write the dot-dashes down and transcribe at the end.
And who knows you may find that you like it. I never did but I did
push myself to 13 wpm.

Get well,
