....amateur radio has been given over to the masses. The technical part of
ham radio has never really been that complicated. The segregator was the
code requirement.

Personally, I am glad to see a trend toward opening up the hobby. This
implies that more X'mitters will be around during the time of an emergency.

Wrong tense. WAS a technical pursuit . . .

Ham radio and the ideals you mention is dead. Killed by
the RSCB in favour of the new hobby radio, now
designated "Multiband CB"

With the average age of an M3 being about 12 - and with an
IQ to match - any notions about hobby radio being a "technical
pursuit" are simply silly.

One must assume, of course, that you are not addressing the likes of the
potty-mouthed fifty going on fifteen year old types that lurk herein.
Wiseman will take issue with that comparison.

That's right, morse blows goats anyway.
