Default 4 Steps for better amateur radio operators.

Step 1: No more automatic renewals. Individuals must retest and
pass all elements required for their license class.

Step 2: The passing score for written exams needs to be raised to 85%.

Step 3: Code elements should be 13 wpm for General, and 20 wpm for Extra.

Step 4: Make the no-code license one year non-renewable.

I'm re-posting this because Markie took a crap on it last time and some of
you might have gotten confused.

Imagine what step #4 would do to two meter HT sales. The no-coders would be
selling them on Ebay at a record rate. Or selling them to fellow CBers.
Of course there is the added benefit of not having our local two meter
repeaters jammed up with no-coders telling one another, "You are full
quieting here.." (DUH??)
Simplex two meter freqs will be safe, however. Most no-coders don't know
what simplex is.

Hi Lardass no coder NOVFP Lloyd Davies. When are you going to upgrade your
license, after the code requirement is dropped? NO! You're too stupid to
pass the written part too!

Oh BTW, try eating a salad every now and then instead of all that pizza you
delivery boy lardass loser.

It won't be that bad, a lot of no-coders will uprade. Only the sick,
lame, and lazy will get out and flood eBay with ham gear, but since the
sick, lame and lazy are like CB'ers we don't want them in the amateur
service anyway. They aren't motivated enough to improve it, or themselves.
