First of all, FCC Rules and Regulations require that a VE team consist of three unrelated (to the applicant) members. According to QRZ, I find less than 2 dozen licensed Amateurs within 20 miles of you. You're shacked up with one of them, but in any case he's only a Technician and ineligible to test you anyway. Secondly, the VE team members must be of at least equal licensure to the level being TESTED FOR...Not already in-hand. That means that only SEVEN of those number were even ELIGIBLE to be VE's to test you to the level of General, and only ONE of those persons holds an Extra, so no matter what, you'd have to drive somewhere to get above General. Now we get to the root of the matter. Unless the rules have changed, a VE (with the exception of Extras) must have a license class higher than the exams they administer. Thus the General class licensee can only administer Tech class exams. To get above Tech, he would most likely have to drive somewhere else. The Advanced and Extras can administer Tech & General Exams. The Extras can administer Tech, General, and Extra exams. If your data is correct on the number of licensees in the area, they could NOT have tested him for General unless there were also some Advanced class licensees around who were VEs. So it would seem that he asked for the impossible. No wonder they would not schedule an exam for him. Dee, N8UZE |

Dee, N8UZE While all of this makes perfect sense to you and me, and is indeed the order of the testing hierarchy, methinks Mark will STILL somehow view himself to be the set-upon "victim". It may even further irritate Mark to learn that I am a VE, so thanks, Dee, for setting the record straight. |

It can be quite difficult for anyone without a background in electronics and trig. It isn't like a whole truckload of college exams I've taken. Correct, and it was all meaningless without the code exam... Hi! It was 120 questions, multiple-choice, done in three parts...on a Sunday afternoon in an old fire house now housing part of the Los Angeles Auxilliary Communications Service, managed by the LAFD. It was all of a mile and a half from my house, across from a food market (Ralphs - no apostrophe) where I've shopped for 43 years. Too bad it wasn't snowing or I would have taken off my shoes like them olde-tymers did. It is slightly downhill (by about 30 feet) to it, but it IS uphill coming back. The Old Tymers have stories about those who didn't make it back. "Bridge Over The River Kwai" kind of stuff.... It wouldn't be so bad if there weren't all these sunsabishes waiting in the bushes to say I'm a "newbie, tyro, beginner, etc., etc. in radio." Jay-suss. They can't get a grip, can they? There's one who has nothing to grip, constantly envying all others with accusations of "Putz." Nah...business will return shortly to the usual in here... like in a few minutes... 73, Len Tick, tick, tick, ah, I meant dit, dit, dit... |

In fact, Dee rightfully defended the VE's So less than two dozen ( 24) amateurs aren't enough to make up a VE team? *That IS news to me. Then you need to read the appropriate FCC rules about the class of license required of a VE for a particular license class. You obviously aren't up to speed on certain aspects of Part 97. that Mark wrongfully accused of being "pro code", and who, according to Mark, refused him a test session. So who was this VE? *What did he/she tell you about the discussion he had with Mark? Dee has a great amount of credibility. Dee is a cheerleader for Morse Code and the ARRL. *That's known as "bias." Mr. Cheese, you have just performed a textbook example of the classic "ad hominem" attack. N8UZE's opinion of Morse Code testing and/or ARRL has nothing whatsoever to do with the actual FCC rules about VE testing, yet you claim "bias" of some sort. Mark has none. Dee has never misled or printed falsehoods in these groups. Mark has. So has Robesin and Deignan. *How many amateurs are in their "Hoods?" *(Good luck on getting a valid address for Deignan.) Another example from you. Try sticking to the fact that there simply aren't enough amateurs who hold the required licenses within 20 miles of Mark in order to hold a VE session for General or Extra. That's one of the downsides for choosing to live in an area with low population density. --- It seems to me that an important point about VE testing has been missed in thise discussion - that of VEs being, well, "Volunteers". VEs aren't paid, unless you count the refreshments and maybe some expenses. They have to do a lot of paperwork and legwork to set up, run and document a VE session, all on their own time. Their amateur radio reputations and licenses are on the line every time they do so. Yet some unnamed VEs are being attacked and accused of bias simply because they didn't put on a special VE session for one amateur who chooses to live in a low-population-density area. Mark wanted VEs from outside his area to come to him, rather than he going to them, and blamed it all on them being "procode". As if there's something wrong with being in favor of Morse Code - not the test, the mode itself. There was no requirement that any VEs put on special sessions because of the rules changes. They did so anyway, as a favor, not a requirement. I am reminded of someone who accused certain VEs of "fraud" simply because they presided over the license testing of a young amateur, even though the accuser did not know of any real fraud, was not present at the VE session, and in fact had no evidence and did not know any of the people involved at all. How about a little respect and thanks for the VEs? They certainly deserve it. AFAIK, "Mr. Cheese" is not a VE. Nor am I, or anyone posting to this thread except N8UZE. So I'll say "THANK YOU" to Dee, and all VEs who help with the licensing process. And all who have done so for more than 20 years, since the FCC abdicated the responsibility of testing for amateur radio licenses. Without those Volunteer Examiners, there would be no possibility of the so-called "Revolution". And I'll put my first name and call on this post. Jim, N2EY |

What did he/she tell you about the discussion he had with Mark? I'd like to know that myself. We have only Mark's "word", and Mark has been known to twist the facts to suit his eternal victim status. No, we have Robesin making accusations. I'd like to know which VE he talked to and got this information. Dee has a great amount of credibility. Dee is a cheerleader for Morse Code and the ARRL. That's known as "bias." Dee is well educated. That apparently rankles you and Mark. Well educated people can be biased. No collitches even specialize in it. Mark has none. Dee has never misled or printed falsehoods in these groups. Mark has. So has Robesin and Deignan. How many amateurs are in their "Hoods?" (Good luck on getting a valid address for Deignan.) Why would I want same? Better yet, why would YOU want same? I could care less how many amateurs have to suffer with those two on their local repeaters. |

As if there's something wrong with being in favor of Morse Code - not the test, the mode itself. Pretty much. A textbook example of how a large segment of the "No Code Agenda" isn't about simply removing the code test, but instead is interested in destroying the mode itself, due to some irrational hatred of the mode of operation. The funny part about Mark's rant is even if there were an adequate number of Extra-class operators around to give him a test, it is not outside the realm of possibility that those Extras might have been licensed after 2000, and could have only passed the fairly trivial 5wpm code examination to obtain their Extra-class license. I am reminded of someone who accused certain VEs of "fraud" simply because they presided over the license testing of a young amateur, I seem to recall that too. And, if I remember correctly, the accuser wasn't even a licensed amateur at the time of the accusation. So I'll say "THANK YOU" to Dee, and all VEs who help with the licensing process. Most definitely. I've been to 4 VE sessions in my lifetime, and that was enough for me. 73 kh6hz |

Only Pro-Code Test Advocated trivialize the 5WPM Exam. Am I a pro-code test advocate? For the vast majority of people (say, those who are not severely mentally retarded), the 5wpm is a trivial examination. It involves little more than a mental table lookup... "Dadidadit..... ummm... that's a C'". Of course, there are always exceptions, and that's why VE teams could do a variety of things to aid people in passing their code examination (changing the tone of the tape, giving people more time to write things down during the test, etc. I'm sure Dee could tell us more on how VE teams can accomodate folks). Memorizing the table requires some effort... but in reality probably little more effort than people put into 'memorizing' the question pools prior to taking an examination. And exactly how does the 5WPM Exam disqualify them from being a VE? Did I state somewhere that a 5wpm examination disqualified them from being a VE? I must have missed that, or typed in invisible ink. I can't see it in my original posting. I seem to recall a world famous DXer working out of band Frenchmen on 6 meters. I wouldn't know who world-famous DXers are. Virtually all my contacts are stateside. Never been much of a DX chaser myself. I seem to recall an RF Commando telling others how to live their amateur lives, all the while faking up a bunch of clubs and using an out of CONUS PO Box to glom up a whole bunch of DX callsigns. Who might that be? Can you give an example how these folks tell "others how to live their amateur lives"? Perhaps (for example purposes only) you mean some of these amateurs may have filed comments with the FCC calling for a reduction in code testing to 5wpm with a 'sunset clause' eliminating it altogether once the treaty requirement was removed? So, you don't like those types of amateurs telling you how to live your amateur life, a-la removing the code test? Well, I suppose if you're a die-hard 20wpm code tester, I can see how you'd be upset by that. Have no fear though, Brian, you can continue to make those 20+wpm code contacts all you want, even with the pesky little code test gone. How many COLEM exams? I've been to two. One for my General Radiotelephone and a 2nd for my GMDSS Operator/Maintainer license (needed that for my ocean-going trawler based in Washington, dontcha know). How about you? |
