Default libel and VE Testing

Not at all. You're the one who claims Steve "lied".

No, he didn't. You may not agree with his statement, but just because you
disagree with it doesn't mean he "lied". Factually, Steve's statement is
correct. There are 19 licensed amateurs in Chasell, MI.


the lie is asserting that the number of chassell hams is relavant to
to the question


The number of area hams *is* pertinent to the question. If you live in a low
population-density area, then the likelihood of having an adequate number of
hams who are Extra-class VEs is likewise low, and thus, the number of
possible test sessions low as well.

Compare this to a high population area, such as Boston:

or NYC:

http://www.arrl.org/arrlvec/examsear...10001&dist=100

which have 83 and 133 test sessions, respectively, scheduled in the near
future.


but indeed how could his refusaul to schedule a testing for his own
personal affect his license? you are lying a big one there


Your statements clearly indicated that you were denied a test session
locally because the VEs in the area are "procoders" -- specifically in
Message-ID:

Being denied a test session because you're a codeless tech would be a
serious offense and could result in a VE teams credentials being revolked.

However, as I (and many others) suspect, you were not denied access to a
test session because the teams consisted of "procoders", but instead because
the VE team probably thinks you are an utter retard, or you made some type
of "demand", such as a special examination session on Feb 23rd, when the VE
team already had a test session scheduled for April 14th.


he is welcome to explain why refused a request from myself and others
to do what was promised by him when he changed the number of test
session the club sponered team would hold to 2 per year and as many as
might be needed


Refer to what the first letter in the term VE stands for. Volunteer. If you
asked for a special examination session, VE teams are in no way obligated to
hold special test sessions for you, especially when they already have a
session scheduled in a mere 6 weeks.

However, in typical Morkie Perpetual Victim fashion, you whine, stomp your
feet, and cry "i discriminalgated agist by porcodrs!!!!"


If you feel there is adequate demand for more than 2 test sessions per year
in Chasell, then you're welcome to take the requisite examinations, obtain
VE certifications, and form your own VE team. However, if you do that, I
suspect you'll be in here whining that "nobody showed up 'cuz we're no-code
Extras".


My wife would also be delighteted to discuss it with him since it
mean't she is still a tech since both of us could risk traveling to
Milwakeee or anyplace else for session this time of year


A quick search yields a test session which was held yesterday under 100
miles from your home, by the Hiawatha ARA. What was wrong with that one? Are
they all Procoders too? Otherwise it looks like you'll have to wait until
CCRAA has their next test session on April 14th.
