Norm, power authorities have been sending signals by the power lines for
years. I casn remember about 40 years ago complaints that tones used to do
this were interfering with hi fi setups and spoiling the enjoyment of
those listening to music.

I question your statement that amateur numbers are going to swell if morse
testing is abandoned. Figures published by ZL2CA indicate quite clearly
that the non code licences are  dropping in number at least as quickly as
the full licencees.
