That document spells out what the NCVEC leaders are thinking about in
terms of changes to the license structure as a result of WRC 2003.

Jim,

Your statement is very misleading. Here is a direct quote from the
document: "...it must be made clear that this document does not in any
way reflect official NCVEC policy, and has not been approved by their
leadership".

Thank you for pointing that out, Hans. I apologize for the inaccuracy. I shall
refer to the paper as "the KL7CC paper" from now on, and I urge others to do
the same.

In point of fact, it doesn't really matter because the NCVEC is only a
handful of people without any mandate as regards the future of our
service.

The paper claims to have three authors. Have you read it?

Some of them (W5YI comes to mind) tend to adopt "official
titles" and use them as a bully pulpit from which to attempt to
advance their personal agendas, but their influence with the
regulators is no more or no less than anyone else.

Somehow I will not be surprised if the NCVEC adopts something very similar to
the ideas and attitudes in the KL7CC paper as its official position. They have
already done so wrt code testing.

Thanks for the pointer

73 de Jim, N2EY

The paper claims to have FOUR authors. Yes, I have read it,
apparently more carefully than you have.

At the very end, only three people are named - the principal author, "with
assistance from" two others. That's three, last time I checked.

Yep, it most soy-tainly am!

And at the beginning of the paper he names himself, W5YI, W3BE, and
W4WW. That's four, last time I checked.

Maybe he's trying to confuse us.

HAW!!

Of course!

But if you read that paragraph carefully, (the one where he names the "Gang of
Four", which is his phrase, not mine), you'll see that the Four named above are
the NCVEC Rules Committee, not necessarily the authors of the paper.

I say it's three, based on the signature.

To-may-to, to-mah-to, what matters is the content. Some very good ideas and
some very bad ideas.

Both of you seem highly confused at the moment.

Hokay, Hans Bigguy, have you figured out yet how to intelligibly
voice-modulate a spark transmitter?

Huh, huh?

Come on, show us technically how Reg Fessenden did it, sparking
up a song one Christmas night in 1906.

Rotsa ruck on dis wun naow...
