Hello Martin,

Thanks for that, I'll see what paperwork I can unearth.

I started teaching the kids morse code at the
weekend - we found a couple of cheap walkie-talkies
for them with morse `buttons' and the alphabet in
morse on the front. It set me thinking about giving
it a go again, though I never got around to sitting
the morse test when I had my licence - I was more
interested in TV transmission, and other technologies
beyond my means :-/

Anyway, I'm thinking of relicensing, then getting the
kids to build a rig - iirc they can transmit with my 
licence, under my supervision?

We can also try morse over IP ;-)

 - Richard
