Hey #hamradio folks. I know we use the acronym CW to mean morse code (via “continuous wave.”) I also know we are encouraged to use hashtags to make our content more easily searchable. I agree with all this.

But be aware that #cw typically refers to Content Warnings. And that convention has existed on the Fediverse/Mastodon for a very long time.

I suggest we use #morse instead. It’ll prevent confusion, and your posts are less likely to be filtered out.

Please Boost for visibility.

Or perhaps #MorseCode
@W8HF yep. Several have suggested that too. Clear, and screen reader friendly.

Plus to a non ham Morse is vague. #MorseCode they will know plus may inspire someone to do some digging and discover that it is very much alive and well!
