Those Old Study Guides

I'll post them if you are interested. Always am. Here's a sample - lots more to come. From the 1976 ARRL License Manual: Study Question #31: Well, I can see why those types of questions are no longer being used. It's more about who is giving the tests than it is about who is taking it. Every tried grading essay questions? Yes - but you missed the point, Bob. In 1976 the tests were all multiple-choice, same as today, except that most of them were 5 choices rather than 4. But the FCC-provided *study guides* were in essay format, as given above. The exact Q&A were not publicly available - at least not officially. And this benefited the ARS in which way. If someone knows the task...they know the task. To be honest with you, I've known some CB'ers who knew as much or more about radio than ham's. However, I've not known any CB'ers since about 1974 or so. |
