forget cw

forget the q/a written

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.

But we share our groups with you,
even though you have no clue.



Well, lucky for you, your CB buddy's and Markie, you dont have to pass an
exam to use the internet. If passing a test were required, you and your CB
buddy's would only have telephone, snail-mail, and the smoke signals from
your burned up linear finals to communicate with each other.
