pass all elements required for their license class.

4: Make the no-code license one year non-renewable.

5. No more "multiple guess" code test. One minute solid copy with
lots of numbers, punctuation, and intentional misspellings

6. No more VE sessions. Re-establish testing at FCC Field offices,
and train test administrators in the mold of Jules Finkelman.

7. No more pass the theory one day, the code another day. If you
expect to be a ham, you should know both the same day.

8. No more transceivers. Separate receivers and transmitters,
preferably with tubes, that you have to tune separately. For first
year of license, crystal transmit frequency control only.

9. Fill in the World Trade Center hole, re-establish the old grid of
streets, and re-establish radio row on Courtlandt Street.

The council of VECs has already eliminated the multiple choice test. Now
it's fill in the blank or get solid copy.

There go most potential hams. Finkleman's look could curdle stone.
