Advanced class licensees passed the Extra class written exam, and passed a 13 wpm code test. Furthermore, most Advanced class licensees took the older Extra exam -- an exam that's a lot tougher than the current Extra exam. Possession of the Advanced class license proves that the holder met higher standards than the current crop of Extras. So thanks, but no thanks. When I want to downgrade, *I* will make that decision. Just go away, ARRL, and keep your grimy paws off my license. Truly weird. As a 20wpm Extra I don't see you as having a higher licence than me, oddly enough. |
