Feet firmly planted in the past folks and elitist snobs......



Why wouldn't they WANT the Morse code testing eliminated so that they
could get on the air and only associate with like minded individuals?


Removing the test would be the ultimate filter.

Because we can do that right now Mike. I don't consider it being

elitist to
want to continue with a known effective mode. Those that want to get

DAN, Dan, dan, it is the -EXAM- that we are getting rid of. If we got
rid of the psk practical exam, would you think we are trying to get
rid of the mode?


There is no psk practical exam. The ONLY PRACTICAL exam we have in ham
radio is the CW TEST. Most of the rest is mainly BS memorization, that for
the most part is not even relevant to real world ham radio.
