If code is eliminated from US requirements, will you quit amateur

No one is going to quit amateur radio because the code requirement was
eliminated, maybe a couple might. It's the retards that will flood the
bands afterwards that are going to drive good hams out of ham radio.

We already have one CB service, we don't need two.

Hey Slow Code,

Did'ja totally forget about the 2 meter band? Oh yea. . How about
the 70CM band as well? Boy-O-boy Slow, I tell ya' right here and now,
I've heard just as bad "Ratchet-Jaw" or Drooling idiots who think
they HAVE to talk on those two bands, (Which of course require
Expensive Equipment and Testing with Licensing.), as I've ever heard
on the C.B.


Right. Eliminating the code requirement for the Tech license was a bad
idea and it let riff-raff on our VHF and UHF bands. They need to require
passing a CW test for the technician license again, or make the no-code
license one year non-renewable.
