Perhaps FISTS should consider sending this in as a comment to be
considered with RM-10787, rather than a separate petition.

If FCC grants the "no Morse test" petition, then it is unlikely to roll
back that decision at a later date.

I suspect that this will work equally as well as a comment since the FCC
will be required to weigh all the diverging and conflicting petitions that
have already been submitted to come up with whatever ruling they may decide
to put out. There are now at least seven different petitions filed although
not all are yet open to comments. The fact that it is a petition may even
give it more weight than just a comment.

And, the FCC upheld its R&O in 98-143, denying all petitions
for reconsideration asking for reinstatement of higher speed
Morse tests.

Does NCI I have the latest 10 Codes out yet?

The same old Morse code is necessary for ham radio HF operation
line of thinking. There is nothing that prevents anyone from
learning Morse code if the FCC drops the Morse code test & requirement
for General and Extra Class license holders so their petition is
silly.

Having not seen a public notice from the FCC on ANY of the petitions,
it would appear that NONE of them are formally open for comment.

If I missed an official FCC public notice, I'd appreciate it if someone
could tell me the date it was released. (I check the "Daily Digest" and
the Federal Register daily ... though it's possible I could have overlooked
one ...)

How many *US* licensees are members of FISTS, Dick?

Enjoy!


I thought that FISTS sold themselves as a non-political club?
