CW is fantastic, but RTTY has a couple of advantages that I can see.
1) RTTY has a larger character set than CW, so although slow and bandwith restricted (over low frequency) it would be easier to send "data" over the link.
2) It absolves the user from having to learn anything, which is a requirement for modern society. Rather than having to learn Morse code 'i jus typ in dis box &pres snd lols!'
So sadly not easier, as CW requires learning:(
a single source?
urm... no.
But i went through a Lubavitch (the really orthodox jews that wear all the black) primary school, and this was a point that was brought up on a couple of occasions.

There are some mystical schools of thought that believe resurrection is not a one-time event, but is an ongoing process. The souls of the righteous are reborn in to continue the ongoing process of tikkun olam, mending of the world. Some sources indicate that reincarnation is a routine process, while others indicate that it only occurs in unusual circumstances, where the soul left unfinished business behind. Belief in reincarnation is also one way to explain the traditional Jewish belief that every Jewish soul in history was present at Sinai and agreed to the covenant with G-d. (Another explanation: that the soul exists before the body, and these unborn souls were present in some form at Sinai). Belief in reincarnation is commonly held by many Chasidic sects, as well as some other mystically-inclined Jews. See, for example Reincarnation Stories from Chasidic Tradition. [/quote]
-found the bit above by typing in "judaism resurrection" into google and clicking the first link.
if you remember the story of Jacob and Esav then when Esav tricks his father into giving him his brothers blessing, it says that Issak (his father) saw chinum (hell) opening up before him.
Jews also sit 'Shiva' for the dead. 7 days of prayers to help the spirit leave hell and arrise to heaven/to be born again.
