I am interested in expanding my freeband hobby but do not wish to take
t he General class hammie test until the code is dropped. My question
is d oes anyone know when the code will be dropped and how long woould
I need
to wait until the written General test is simplified such as the Tech
t
est is now?

Plase email me a WAV of morse code so I can hear what it sounded like
wh en the old hammies used it.

I will probably be dropped soon, but the FCC has to go through standard
procedures with all the pending petitions. The international requirement
was dropped on July 5th, so by next July it should probably be gone in the
US.

It's a difficult question. Do we applaud him for wanting to go legal? Or
do we slam him for ever having operated illegally? I have known former
pirate radio ooperators whose behaviour on the ham bands after they got a
licence was exemplary.

Then let us hope that he is a shining beacon of behavior for the cause
of those who do away for the code test!
