: No, please tell us how requiring code tests and more difficult technical testing creates a "more proficient" ham? When code testing was 13/20 WPM and the technical tests were much harder, we still had all the idiots on the bands. Those idiots are not more proficient. You are simply ignoring reality. Do you live in a cave or something? You must be one of them lazy hams. |

The 146.715 repeater on Long Island in the early 70s. We've had our share of pre-VEC idiots. But it was never as bad as even some of the things you hear on 75 these days. I rarely plug a mic in. |
