DIRECT as in laying on of hands,
moving controls, operating, all that stuff.

I get the feeling that your knowledge of radio operating might be a
little light. Are you of the opinion that operating a radio falls under
"all that stuff"?


Len does not consider "operating skills" to be of much (if any) value.


a fair enough assesment of len views


I disagree, Mark. I do not consider a RADIOTELEGRAPHY TEST to be
any "operating skill" worthy of being part of an amateur radio
operator's license.

The FCC has had that viewpoint. They said so in public documents.

Stupor-patriot morsemen think morse code telegraphy skills are
all that is "operating skill."
