Man you got that right Mike. It was that way, decades ago. The
extra used to mean something. Now it means squat.

Don't believe me? Look at the before and after code gutting. I was
going to get a fancy 1X2 years ago. Glad I didn't now.

All the 1x2 sequentially assigned calls were gone long before the
20wpm code was dropped.

The real observation here is to note a complaint about extra class hams
not knowing
what the length of a 1/2 wave dipole was on a given frequency; has
nothing to do
with sending and recieving morse code skill.

Kinda showed your colors there.

It was a dead giveaway. Anyone who thinks that 20wpm code operating skill
means you know all about dipoles has a serious problem that no amount of
discussion will ever change.
