om... (N2EY) wrote in message . com... The following isn't exactly a new idea, but some may not have seen it yet... Maybe the way out of the mess is for a Smith Chart test to replace the code test. So you still want the Amateur Radio Service to be the exclusive domain of the Electrical Engineer's? I don't think that's what the FCC wants, but since the NCVEC can do any damned thing they want, go ahead and put it to them. I am not an EE or, for that matter, an any-type-E. Majored in History, in fact, with a useful minor in Comparative Religion. Work experience consisted on sitting in an office, drinking bad coffee, attending boring meetings and writing REALLY useful memos (I was high enough in the organization so that I didn't have to read any memos). With that as background ... I do no think I am brilliant, but I have not found Smith Charts all that difficult. When I learned about them, I found them interesting and potentially useful. Perhaps, just perhaps, the NCVEC thinks selecting for people who find such things a Smith Charts interesting is a reasonable filter for entrance to ham radio. If this be true, perhaps, just perhaps, that's a reasonable filter? Paul AB0SI |
