Well, I wouldn't worry about that too much. Unless they can make a
legitimate argument that the questions are
unnecessary/irrelevant/illogical or are "self-protectionist" and simply
meant to make the test over-difficult so as to control numbers or who can
enter amateur radio, what would give them a leg to stand on?

Isn't this what they claimed the code test did?


Perhaps they could also make the argument that the tests are "obsfucated",
deliberately misleading or "entangled with deliberate complexity" in an
effort to confuse and mislead.

Clearly, this is a fully 100% accurate statement, since 3 of the 4 options
presented as answers for each multiple-choice question is incorrect.


No, unless they would have a legitimate argument, they would most likely
be dismissed along with any of their false claims.

I believe others made similar comments regarding elimination of the code
requirement 20+ years ago.


The trend in amateur radio licensing is to make things "easier".
