Morse code is a good thing
I agree 100% with WWW and WX Man.
Morse is an invaluable skill that should be taught at FTOs and the Morse test should be brought back, I think. I can’t see how you can identify a beacon without it. And anyway, the way I see it is that if you are PIC you want to be sure you have the right beacon selected so as not fly into a cloud full of rocks by tracking the wrong beacon and killing yourself, it’s in your own best interest to know it.
I was lucky to know Morse before I started my training. However, if there is any advice that I can give you it is as WX Man writes you must end up being able to receive Morse as a sound or a musical note if you like and not as a series of dots and dashes and trying to convert them into text as your doing the Doogle A22 departure.
All the best and have fun with it, it is something worth having under your belt.
