The test may be dead, but the mode lives on.

Note that the link takes you to an announcement, but not the actual
R&O. And while the R&O is dated today, it doesn't say when the change
is effective.

The way it's stated, one COULD assume it's today.

Look at the .pdf file again. I missed it the first time. It is in very
*small* print between the bars at the start of the note. It is an
announcement and will be effective when the FCC releases the whole text
(whatever and whenever that is).

Where the heck is Phil when we need his expertise at sorting this kind of
stuff out

I lost his e-mail address on my last system crash. Windoze is pretty good
at that

VE's will now be testing applicants for their ability to program their
cell phone interface to the car communication system, in order to assure
proper data transfer between amprnet and arpanet using AX.25B protocols
in a TCP/IP environment.

Element 1 hasn't been retired, it has been revised: it will now consist
of a test to identify buzzwords with 70% accuracy.

Hello Mopar,

Heck, the VEs will still be testing the other elements.

If the loss of CW bothers you, I can always send you something via "Morse
Mail" )

Hope you and yours have a Merry Christmas!

Hello Mopar,

Hello Jim

They can use a scan card instead now right? It won't be long before the how
to color it instructions are available on google.

No worries either way with me over here Jim, Go ahead and send it anyway!


Hope you and yours have a Merry Christmas!

Thanks and the same backatcha!
