Is it still around, and anyone here one of them? And, in general, how many have handled traffic and delivered radiograms. I used to love to do that.

I remember that it was an honor given to those that handled a lot of CW traffic. I don't know if there is even CW traffic anymore.

There are still CW traffic nets, but I don't know if anybody makes BPL (Brass Pounder's League) anymore. It wasn't real easy 30 years ago. I believe most of the traffic is generated expressly to keep the NTS circuits alive.
