... On the last page of
his voluminous reply comments to the restructuring NPRM
back in 1999, Len requested that the FCC enact a minimum age requirement of
14
years for any class of amateur license. When challenged, however, he could
not
give a single example of on-air violations by licensed radio amateurs under
the
age of 14.
Neither would he respond to questions about his parenting
experiences that might lead him to make such a suggestion.
Steve,
Parent or not, everyone's entitled to an opinion about age limits for an
amateur license. My opinion is that they're a bad idea.
But the main point is that Len was proposing a draconian solution to a
nonexistent problem. It's not the under-14 hams that are causing problems - far
from it! The fact that Len could not cite a *single* incident shows how empty
his argument was.
Yet nobody told him to shut up.
