Your "student operator" idea would create an unnecessary intermediate
step. A
"licensed ham" who cannot operate unsupervised. Bad idea, I say.
Control freaks are big on supervision and rank and being in charge.
People who propose the freedom to take sole responsibility for their own
actions scare the bejeebers out of them.
There's nothing in anythiing I've said, Hans, that makes this THE way for
somoene to get into Amateur Radio...This is but ONE way.
This is not about "control"....It's about a way for TEACHING others to be
licensed, SKILLED Amateur Radio operators.
There are already 675,000 people out there with Amateur Radio licenses who
are "in control" of thier own actions and I hope there will someday be another
675, 000.
Sorry you think differently. Seems to me that those who yell the loudest
about others being "in control" are themselves the ones worried about WHO is
going to be in control.
Kinda like you.
