wrote: 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? The claim was "more proficient", not "generally nicer and better able to get along with people". There will always be idiots in insert any field but a ham who can't copy code at 1 wpm isn't more proficient (or as proficient) at communicating under any and all conditions as one who can. Someone who can do something is, by definition, more proficient at doing it than someone who can't. Requiring code tests and real technical testing (the current tests are a joke) makes sure that most of the people who get licensed are more proficient at receiving code and with technical matters. |
