Anyway,, Back in the old days, we used to walk 5 miles in the snow to the FCC field office to take our exams. We had to kneel on radiators while we took the test. We used slide rules and crayons AND WE LIKED IT!!! Then we'd wait 3 years to receive our license which gave us time to teach electrons to enter and exit all the tubes...stupid little buggers, those. Boy, those were the days. When a ham was a ham, brass was for pounding and AM signals were as wide as the day is long. These "young" whippersnappers get off too easy. I say, rank priveleges on the basis of how big an RF burn you can take, or on the basis of personal weight. I may have said it befo take the FCC out of it completely and go with the FDA. Those boys know how to grade. (Too much tea this morning!) I avoid answering question from that admit to using too much of any drug legal or or not John AB8O |
