The author of the article made a major error in that he stated

bands plus voice on 10meter.

It's these "Which way did he go?" screw ups that form my opinion
that there ought to be a stabilizing of the licenses and grandfathering
of existing Advanced and Novices into one of the three existing
classes.

He was fundementally correct that a General class license is the
"basic" HF license...NOW. Of course we still have the "loophole" for
Techs who pass the 5WPM being allowed to use the Novice sub-bands, and
the Novice class license itself...

Waddanitemare!
