CWProtest Yahoo Group Hey Techs Lets Liberate Ham Radio
 
Um, Keith, what about element 3? You are aware there is an additional
written exam which will have to be taken - even with the elimination of
code. Or do you believe that if you can spell your name correctly and put
your address (also correctly) on the application, that is a difficult enough
test?

Join up and let your voice be heard. There are 200,000+ amateur radio
technicians that deserve the right to use the HF bands. Hams in Europe

have
already been allowed access to the HF bands and America should take the

lead
and let it's citizens enjoy HF amateur radio as soon as possible.

As of July 15, 2003, there were 257,319 Technician class licensees,
some of whom already do have the right to use parts of the HF bands.
No way of telling how many, unfortunately...basically anyone who was a
Tech+ and has renewed now has a license that says Technician on it,
but they retain their HF privileges, and anyone who upgraded from
Novice to Technician also retains their HF privileges.

America already lets it citizens enjoy HF amateur radio. In addition
to the Techs with HF privileges, there are also (as of July 15, 2003)
33,662 Novices, 67,055 Tech Plus licensees who haven't had to renew
yet (not that it matters since they keep their HF privileges anyway),
141,180 other Generals besides me, 83,239 holders of an Advanced
license, and 104,301 Extras.

THERE IS NO WAY FOR THE FCC TO VERIFY IF A TECH HAS PASSED A MORSE CODE TEST.


The louder you shout, the greater the number of people who will
discover how ignorant you are.

The burden of proof is on the licensee to prove that he or she has
passed the code test. All FCC has to do is ask to see a copy of your
license or CSCE.

TECH SHOULD FEEL FREE TO OPERATE ON YOUR TECH BANDS AT WILL.


Yes, they should. They should also understand (unlike you, apparently)
that, without Element 1 credit, "your Tech bands" means full amateur
privileges on all of the VHF/UHF bands.

I didn't say that techs have more then one HF band. God no wonder ham radio is
dying with jack asses like you around.


Then why are you so anxious to operate on the same bands where all of
us (supposed) jackasses hang out?

You f*cking hams are like the golf clubs
that refuse to admit jews and blacks. You are a dying bred.


Whereas people like you who can't spell, can't read, and don't know
the rules can be found on every street corner...my eighth grade
science teacher was right, inbreeding really IS a bad thing.
