FCC announced today that Element 1, the 5 wpm Morse Code test, will no
longer be required for
any class of US amateur license. Technicians will get Technician Plus
privileges.

See news item on

www.fcc.gov

The effective date of this change isn't clear but should be soon.

Hello, Jim

Now, perhaps, everyone can put this code vs no code thing behind us. :D

Perhaps, just perhaps, the group can quiet down a bit and get back to more
serious discussions ...

Hopefully.

Actually it should come as no surprise. Things have been heading that
way for a long time. Frankly, I'm surprised it has taken so long,
considering that FCC could have done the same thing more than 3 years
ago.

Perhaps when Paul Schleck's moderated version starts up.

--

btw, I'm still keeping the "ARS License Numbers" thread going. It will
be interesting to see how the number of current US licenses held by
individuals changes after the new rules go into effect.

The public announcement doesn't say when the new rules will go into
effect, though.

Only if moderation is used in moderation have I ever seen it to be
successful, else the newsgroup goes the way of CW and only a few
devotees participate. However, it just might be worth it to be rid of
the "gay agenda" who plague usenet these days.

I can put the issue away, but not some of the hard feelings developed
along the way. There are several individuals on this group that I
would never care to meet on the air or in person.

Perhaps now we can discuss N2EY's proposal for a No-Test service. I'm
sure he's eager to roll that one out again.

The "Gay Agenda" is Steven J. Robeson/K4YZ/K4CAP/Tennessee Nurse who
mines the internet and brings back to this amateur newsgroup things
which have no place here.

There was never any such proposal. You are mistaken, in error, and just
plain wrong.

I can't roll out what doesn't exist.
