How to get Amateur Radio Licenses
 
Subject: Amateur Radio Licenses
Washington D.C.-

It was announced today that Kellogg's and the Federal Communications
Commission have signed a pact to issue Amateur Radio Licenses on specially
marked boxes of Corn Flakes.

In this unprecedented move the FCC believes this will not hurt amateur
radio but allow all individuals to receive an amateur radio license without
having to
demonstrate any skills with the exception of being able to use a pair of
scissors to cut out their operating permit from the breakfast cereal box.

Kellogg's spokesperson commented that they were proud to have been selected
by the government to be the issuer of licenses for amateur radio in the US
and
hope to soon make an agreement with other cereal loving countries. They
also expect that will be issuing certificates of achievement for DXCF for
confirmed
contacts with 100 corn flakers.

How long are we going to have to read all these posts from the cry-babies
waaa-waaaing over getting rid of that out-dated and out-moded code test.
Fer cripes sakes, get on with it and use this modernization of the service
to attract more people into ham radio.

Isn't that what was being discussed all along; and, isn't that what an
amateur license is really worth?

It is only the person who gives the license credibility, give a license
to an idiot, he just becomes an idiot with a ticket, or an appliance
operator, a idiot who sends CW and has a license, etc.
