jesus, let's just do away with the written test *and* the CW test. let's
just open the doors to anyone. we'll set up a webpage at the ARRL site, and
you'll just point and click. it will be as easy as becoming a Reverend.

you could license your dog, a terrorist, anyone.

honestly, i am very glad there are minimum requirements. this keeps out
people who are not serious about the hobby. people who don't know what they
are doing should not be transmitting (esp on HF).

this whole CW debate is what we call the dumbing down of America.

i mean we have minimum standards for driving in America or becoming a
citizen, why is ham radio so different?
