actually Tech Pluses whom the FCC renewed as Techs since April 2000.
Still on that standard excuse, ey?
Tsk, tsk, tsk...back BEFORE restructuring there were about 200
thousand NO-CODE Technician licenses granted. That was separate
from the "Technician-Plus" class then.
You haven't admitted that so many NO-CODE licensees got their
license grants in the first 9 years of that class.
You keep waltzing around that, misdirecting into other rationalizations
such as "they won't renew" or other statements of invalidity.
The Novice class was dropping in numbers before restructuring and
it continues dropping. The League of Misinformed Gentlemen finally
acquiesced and stated that the Tech license is the "entry level"
class for US ham radio.
Now you keep making the pitiful case of "Tech-plus renewals get
made Technicians and thus 'distort' the no-code numbers" and
conveniently forget the numbers prior to restructuring.
I guess mighty macho morsemen are into Convenience Amnesia.
