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 ...

If only more people had three hour work schedules...

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?

FILTER? Who the hell thinks a FILTER is necessary or JUSTIFIABLE?

You're a perfect example of why filters absolutely are necessary.

You'se guys Socialists or what?
