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.

@smitty
I need to move away from the "CW" hashtag. The recent discussion has convinced me if that.

But isn't #MorseCode a better choice? The plain #Morse you suggest refers to a person, not the code. And I find #MorseCode more naturally integrates into the sentences I typically write.

@dj3ei I'm good with #MorseCode
