Brenda:

Have you ever looked at older tests???

Get real!!! Silk covered wire, TRF receivers, phenolic insulators,
regen receivers, coherers, "crystal detectors" and tubes are already
seen mostly in museums...

Those old tests look difficult because the methods are now understood
better, are totally out-dated, or the equip no longer used!

Yanno, even the bandwidth/freq allocs have changed and most would
guess wrong on those old questions!!!

ROFLOL!!!

YEAH!!!

Hide all the answers and require 'em to come up with the answers
psychically!!!

ROFLOL! Get real, any college is test smart, any CS/EE technology
student will blow the doors off any test any panel can come up with
in
damn short order.


The ARS written test has been a joke for years. All the answers are
published, all one has to do is buy the book and memorize the
answers.. no
need to actually KNOW anything. How many of these damn 'appliance
operators' nowadays can actually build their own equipment? How many
can
repair the appliances they buy from HRO or Universal Radio (beyond
looking
on the internet for mods)?
