4 Steps for better amateur radio operators.

I'm re-posting this because Markie took a crap on it last time and some of
you might have gotten confused.
Step 1: No more automatic renewals. Individuals must retest and
pass all elements required for their license class.
Step 2: The passing score for written exams needs to be raised to 85%.
Step 3: Code elements should be 13 wpm for General, and 20 wpm for Extra.
Step 4: Make the no-code license one year non-renewable.
Tnx, 73, Good luck in the contest.

Imagine what step #4 would do to two meter HT sales. The no-coders would be
selling them on Ebay at a record rate. Or selling them to fellow CBers.
Of course there is the added benefit of not having our local two meter
repeaters jammed up with no-coders telling one another, "You are full
quieting here.." (DUH??)
Simplex two meter freqs will be safe, however. Most no-coders don't know
what simplex is.
