We oughta have a pool on how long it takes The Congress and FCC to get through the various levels of rubberstamping. My wild guess is no more than a year from today. I would think about the same, but surely we should each guess a particular date, and the winner should be whoever is closest. Put me down for March 15, 2004.

"Alun Palmer" wrote in message ... Anyway, CW testing is all over bar the shouting. The unanimously agreed language, now passed through all the commitee levels, makes it optional. It just has to be nodded through at the plenary session. This allows those countries mentioned, plus Germany to retain CW testing without it seeming that it no longer relates to ITU rules, whilst also allowing every other country to dump CW teasting. Actually, the German radio administration support the deletion of ITU rule S25.5. They are record that they will not continue the domestic requirement. It is the German IARU society that supports code exams. Larry kc8epo |

Word has it that the UK will drop it within a month or so. Does the UK have to take the new treaty before Lord So-and-so who takes it into committee and then to the House of Lords for a debate followed by a vote and thence to the Queen to make it binding on the UK or can the Director-General of the RA do that at the stroke of a (ball-point quill) pen? I'm sure in Somalia it gets done whenever Warlord Biggshott says so. -- 73 de K2ASP - Phil Kane |

In my sporadic dealings with them in the mid-1960s I was always impressed by how the GPO (predecessor to the RA) could cut corners where the FCC couldn't - or wouldn't ..... -- 73 de K2ASP - Phil Kane |
