forget cw

have a fill in the blank test where the questions strictly made sure
one knew enough not to hurt themselves or others. not technical,just
safety.

fcc agents travel to clubs at various times to conduct exams.

The newly issued license would be issued as an "amateur radio
license".............. all current license holders would be issued a
new "amateur radio license" along with their current call sign.
All license holders would enjoy all frequencies assigned to the
amateur service. No more FCC ordered subbands. we can do that
ourselves.

Thats my idea to save ham radio,
signed: 13 WPM Advanced

there have been worse sugestions made


dude, we have to try something new.
stop seperating folks by class of lic.
just make sure they aren't going to hurt anything, then have at it.

one class, all frequencies



I hate that idea.

I'm a 20wpm Extra and I don't want to share my sub-bands with retards.
