You’ll have to learn the ways of the Morse, if you’re to come with me to Dayton.

The Morse is what gives a Ham his power. It’s an energy field created by turning a carrier on and off. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together.

I have something here for you. Your father wanted you to have this when you were old enough, but your uncle wouldn’t allow it. He feared you might follow old dittybopper on some damn fool DXpedition like your father did. Your father’s Morse key. This is the tool of a ham radio operator. Not as clumsy or random as a microphone; an elegant device for a more civilized age.

For over a thousand generations, CW ops were the guardians of peace and justice in the Aether. Before the dark times… before No Code…

May the Morse be with you.
