If that's true, it's certainly a change from half a
century ago when we HF hams observed the VHF/UHF
hams revolutionizing amateur radio with their
technical expertise.


And half a century ago those VHF/UHF hams had passed a code test. They
weren't no-coders, they were motivated and did what it took. Today's
no-codes aren't motivated and don't want to make an effort, therefore
they're probably not going to be motivated to move things forward either.

Your defamation is well noted. Democracy just sucks, doesn't it?

Actually, the Technician License was offered with
reduced code requirements for hams who were more
interested in technical experimentation than in
ragchewing.

Uhhhhhhhh...Cecil...??!?!

Did you actually make that up, or just quote someone else who is
equally ill informed?

Most of the people who were "moving forward" half a century ago
were ALSO folks who were active on and well known in HF circles...

Unless, of course, you're now going to take Lennie's spin and tell
us that any / everything reported in QST, CQ, etc, was only
"self-serviing rhetoric"...?!?!

Try again.

Anyone that puts out an argument to keep the code requirement gets teased
by Cecil. He loves to throw out some goof-ball counter reply to try to
be-little the original argument.

if you want to stop ham radio being dumbed down you need to turn in
your license and BAN the use of CW which has made mindless wrecks of
people like yourself I presonal don't advocate that course of action
but it is the way stop the dumbing down of radio

Oh PuhlEEEZE!!! Spelling Canada with a "K" is a good sound argument?
Calling me a "lazy ass" is a good sound argument? Claiming I get a
handout is a good sound argument?

You have NEVER put out ANY kind of argument at all!!! Why don't you
try to cite some source that back up any of your "good sound
arguments".

Free hint: Hurling insults and innuendo does NOT a "good sound
argument" make.

Hope this helps.

I'm sorry Opus, but I refuse to lie. You did get a hand-out, and you're
Lazy because you refuse to learn CW to 20wpm, and too lazy to to use it.
You don't want to be a good capable communicator in every way. That's just
how it is. I'm sorry if the truth seems like an insult. You're right
about one thing, I spelled Kanada wrong, I meant to type KKKanaduh. Eh.
