I am interested in expanding my freeband hobby but do not wish to take t
he General class hammie test until the code is dropped. My question is d
oes anyone know when the code will be dropped and how long woould I need
to wait until the written General test is simplified such as the Tech t
est is now?

Plase email me a WAV of morse code so I can hear what it sounded like wh
en the old hammies used it.

I will probably be dropped soon, but the FCC has to go through standard
procedures with all the pending petitions. The international requirement
was dropped on July 5th, so by next July it should probably be gone in the
US.

Alun (sic) IS the committee.
Besides,,,it's widely known I LOVE code....it's why the nocodes profess
their devotion to me on a daily basis....they can't handle nor stand the
fact that many have real licenses (above the nocode street-entry level
license) also play with cb.....it's why certain hammies that claim they
plan to upgrade remain nocodes.....they are unable to learn code....it's
a terrible thing, their levels of frustration. Please don't be too hard
on their impotence and incompetence,,,,,,,,when they are too busy
failing and performing for us, they are not on the air. Tis a good
thing.

It's a difficult question. Do we applaud him for wanting to go legal? Or
do we slam him for ever having operated illegally? I have known former
pirate radio ooperators whose behaviour on the ham bands after they got a
licence was exemplary.

How is it a difficult question? You're not a hammie, so utilizing the
term "we" is nothing but a deliberate false impression. So much for any
credibiliy you were attemping. Go back to your other ID, since you have
the need to feel accepted by others.

Where's the difficulty?
To quote the nice lady at the IRS office, "It's never too late to come
clean".

Pretty good trick Twistie - reply to them only in rec.radio.cb WHICH
THEY'RE NOT READING BECAUSE THEY'RE READING REC.RADIO.AMATEUR.POLICY

Then let us hope that he is a shining beacon of behavior for the cause
of those who do away for the code test!
