Yeah, tough stuff alright.

How about handing 'em a crayon and a piece of paper, have 'em draw a
rig first.

Then, hook two styrofoam cups together with a string, have 'em chat
with one another.

Next, have 'em build a model of an antenna with coat hangers.

ROFL!!! :-)

Ahem...two HARD-PLASTIC containers such as Emerald-
brand nuts. The "elmers" can get their nuts off (the
containers) and help with the string... [support California
tree fruit]

But, siriusly speaking, NOTHING has been said about
GETTING OUTSIDERS *in* THE CLUB in the first place.

THAT is the first step. Nobody seems to have done
anything about that very important FIRST STEP.
Muy importante, that.

Len:

DON'T LAUGH!

I was just a gittin' to the part of grabbin' up their wallet and
ordering the gear, coax and antenna off the net, or ebay. Following
the manuals and gittin' the rig on the air.

However, all the previous takes for granted the licensee can read, and
didn't qualify under some hidden illegal alien clause which gives 'em
a ticket with their green card.
