"N2EY" wrote in message
om... "Mike Yetsko" wrote in message ... From what I heard, (from a posting on QRZ) the NCVEC group yesterday filed a petition with the FCC to abandon CW testing. The petition, unfortunatly, makes no provisions to preserve CW subbands... Mike, What CW subbands? I just read the thing on QRZ.com, and it looks to me like all the NCVEC wants to do is dump Element 1 and allow Techs who have not passed a code test to have the same HF privs as Novices and Techs who have passed a code test. No subband changes, written test changes, etc. Just elimination of Element 1. Did I miss something? Odd that NCVEC beat NCI to the punch on this one. 73 de Jim, N2EY If you read the proposal, it's a bit confusing in how they specify frequency for privilege. The only two scenarios that make sense is that they propose rolling in novice CW space with generic space, or that novice space is allowed into the CW space even though they've never been tested for CW. The second I approve of. I think right now, today, all tech operators should be allowed on HF in the CW space for novices. Ie, give them the CW space to play with IN CW ONLY. Mike |
