Len, like any Americans who've shown an interest in the ARS, have a
disincentive. It is the Morse requirement for HF access.

Your claim might ring true if Len had bothered to obtain a code-free
ticket at some point. He hasn't.

Of whom are you speaking, old man?

I've had HF access several times in the last half century, all legal,
all involving actual communications. No amateur license was
required at any time. No morse skill needed whatsoever.

Any CBer has "HF access" everytime s/he pics up the mic...so
what?

You have NOT had "access" to the Amateur Radio Service, save via
this forum or as a guest operator.

You are unlicensed.

The discussion should be about the federal regulations for an amateur
radio license regulation, not the individual "motivations" of any
aspirant to an avocational radio activity.

Thank-you, SuperModerator. You may now retire to the nearest
phonebooth to resume your secret identity as Sir Anderscum of
Kaliphornya.

You constantly insist on personalizing everything about those who do
not share your holy and illustrious viewpoints. That is your problem
and you continually foul this newsgroup with arrogant remarks against
the person of those of opposite opinions. Not my problem but
certainly yours in attitude.

Amateur Radio IS a "personalized" service. It can be
whatever the licensee wants it to be.

As for any remarks made in THIS forum, this is NOT Amateur Radio,
and YOU have NO RIGHT to whine about any name calling. You are Number
1 on the Hit Parade of Name Callers and Antagonizers.

You reap what you sew.

Amateur radio is supposed to be a recreation, a fun activity involving
radio, licensing required only because of physics of EM waves and
federal regulation. Instead, you've turned it into a battleground of
your own, arrogantly demanding adherence to your personal view-
points. You join several others in here in so doing, some past, some
present. That's counter to the original purpose of "the service," isn't
it? Or is it?

Better re-read paragraph 1 of Part 97 again, Sir Putzalot.

Once again you insist on ignoring what the FCC says. Although it
obviously IS fun and great recreation, that is ancilliary to it. The
one here who is arrogantly demanding adherence to personal views is
YOU. Anyone who dares to suggest anything contrary to the Words of
The Professional is immediately attacked by you.

Perhaps you embody modern amateur radio, a constant striving for
leading the pack in competitive activity? A competition complete
with taunts and jibes and outright insults against those who
"challenge" your arrogant expertise? If so, there is no wonder that
amateur radio has not increased in number commensurate with
the growth in population.

With people like YOU "promoting" it...?!?!

Enjoy your little clique of morse code uber alles in amateur radio
where the "bands" are only on HF. Feel superior that you've met all
the criteria and standards established by long-gone amateurs of past
times. You are important, superior, vital, and that is all that matters.

Here we go with more accusations and assertions by the ALLEGED
"radio profesional"...Of course they are NOT substantiated by ANY
facts, either from posts made herein or from third party media.

You should be demanding that ALL test for high rates of morse in
order to become fully FDA licensed as a ham. Condemn all those
who cannot learn, will not learn, nor share your opinions.

We have YOU for that, Lennie. You do it constantly.

May Santa bring you an irrepairable intermittent in your favorite HF
transceiver along with a truckload of dusty, high-sulphur-content
coal in your stocking. Merry Christmas.

"I am only here to civilly debate the Morse Code test
issue"...LHA

What a liar...again...and again...and again...
