Default Is the code requirement really keeping good people out of ham radio?

Most of the new hams I know lose interest in a couple of years, long befor
the licence expires.


Those darned new hams. They never should have been licensured in the
first place. Didn't have the ooomph to get licensed when the tests
were harder so they weren't really that innerested in the first place.
Didn't show the proper dedication.


and of course none of the failure of hams to reamin hams is due to
bull**** they must endure from other hams


Of course not! Ham radio is a swell fellowship of men. What you see
on RRAP n't ham radio.
