Nope...you lost a "Y!" Code transmission (which, BTW, uses
the "International" code, not the Morse code...!) is regarded by
the FCC as "wireless telegraphY" or mode "A1" (voice is "A3!").

I was K9JOO (ex-KN9JOO) from 1956 until sometime in the
late seventies...I was better at code than the technical exam, and
as a "Novice" used to hang around 7150 KHz trying to QSO
the General-class guys (for whatever reason, most of us "hams"
were guys, NOT gals...?!)
