Default ARRL Now Only Wants No Code Hams - Holding Midnight Exams

Actually, I should have been more clear on this.

Our representatives, and though the gov't agencies they design, should
set these "rules and regulations." "We the people", should vote in and
support only those representatives which serve us and our public
interests. Yanno, like they are supposed to work in our best interests?

Yanno, like the public airwaves are a natural resource given man by his
creator. And, since we realize that some of us "common citizens" might
work in our own best interests if not watched closely, may indulge in
stuffing our own pockets if not watched closely, may use "public
resources" for our own personal use and that of our friends if NOT
watched closely, so that we may pay attention and CLOSELY to giving all
citizens use of their creator given resources.

In my humble opinon this has not been done for decades past, indeed, the
same old protectionist policies and guidelines are being hoisted upon us
again.

We need the FCC to accept total control of these things, away from
public enterprise and interests. We need the public servants to control
these things so we can kick their butt when they start working in their
own interests.

The arrl has been working in its' own best interests for decades. They
have been able to do so because the avg citizen is ignorant. The avg
citizen doesn't even know how to wire an electrical outlet in their own
home--let alone build an xmitter or power amp.

Get real, time for private interests to be kicked out of control of
public airwaves!
