Do Hams get 11 Meters Back

Do Hams get 11 Meters Back, as soon as all the CBers upgrade to there
Free Handout Ham Licenses?


There has been a free ham license ever since the codeless tech was
introduced a few years back. The 5 wpm code requirement has further
moved things in that direction. Idiots on the ham bands.

11 meters has come to the ham bands. I listen to the bands and it's
certainly not the way things were in the 1980's when I got licenced. I
might as well just listen to CB channel 19, it all sounds the same now.

ARRL plan back fired on them. They worked to dumb things done in order
to produce more licensee's who might join the organization and fill the
corporate bank accounts, but instead, they got a bunch of idiots who
don't care bacause getting a license is easy now and when you don't have
to work to get the benefits, the benefits you get don't mean a whole lot.

All real hams out there who remember how the bands used to be, send the
ARRL a nasty-gram and cancel your League memberships. They screwed us
over big time by not protecting the integrity of the Amateur radio
Service.



No Code.... No Ham!

Sounds like you old pro-coders are getting upset! I worked and had to
pay to get my no-code ticket. Now that Im a coded tech, I still say,
rid the code test. You may say it dumbs it down, to me it makes for
more conversation and more to converse with. Who wants to talk on a
piece of equipment that cost $1000 + but no-one to hear you? Why not
let these CB'rs get there license so they can learn the principals of
ham radio instead of bootlegging. I realise that you guys are all
stuck in 1950, but WAKE UP!!!!!! This is 2003!!!!! This reminds me,
Wasnt it quite a few years ago that a bunch of HAMS like yourselves
were complaining about solid-state over tube? Oh my god! There dumbing
down radio with RF transistors!!!! What is next!!!!! Quit whining and
get involved in making the radio better for all. All you pro-coders
are just wasting your breath. They still make tubes, but you have a
choice if you want to use tube or transistor equipment. Isnt that
nice, To have a choice? I chose to advance in my hobby by going to
Extra soon, and I dont need a code holding me back. Do you actually
think that the bad CB'rs are going to go get a license so they can JAM
and CUSS at you? NO!!! The good ones will! So where is the FREE at?

Cya, wouldnt want to be ya.
