Actually, for the reasons already stated, I think they are concerned with
what is in the best interest of the ARS. The Amateur Radio Service is not
(or should not be) defined solely by CW/code, so that one mode does not
solely define what is in the best interest of the ARS. However, as it is,
testing of that one mode does continue to define the ARS. I personally
think
it is time for that to change.


Regardless of one's stance on the code, reviewing the history of the FCC
shows that they are NOT necessarily concerned with what's best for the ARS.
If they were, BPL would never have gotten as far as it has.
