You're probably right. Everyone who holds an amateur ticket likely had
some incentive. Len had none.

Of course I'm right! ;^)

Len, like any Americans who've shown an interest in the ARS, have a
disincentive. It is the Morse requirement for HF access.


Lennie's "disincentive" had/has NOTHING to do with Morse Code, Brain...It
has to do with having absolutely NO understanding of what Amateur Radio is all
about, what it's purpose and capabilities are, and what it means to be a "part"
of something.

He's ALL about being an antagonist.

The "disincentive" was not an "ARS" or "ARRL" issue...it was a matter of
the United States complying with treaties it was signatory to.

Lennie is a loser. He will never be more than a sideline observer to
Amateur Radio, and he was hardly more than that in his "professional" career.
This I have from people who knew him personally. His "contributions" to
certain Naval projects were more significant when he stayed out of other
people's way and let the REAL engineers do their job unimpeded.

Lennie alledges a "professional" career spanning four decades...Well, An
Amateur Radio license granting access to over 97% of all allocations WITHOUT
Morse Code was available for a fourth of that. So where was Lennie?

Lennie makes issue about how Amateurs allegedly don't "move on" in
technology. Current technology places almost all advances far above the HF
spectrum. The Technician Class license has granted those privileges since
1991. So where was Lennie?

One can only surmise that this "argument" about Morse for HF access is
simply yet another LennieRant for "I don't wanna do it", and nothing else. If
he were a TRUE leader in electrical engineering and technology, he'd be out in
front showing "us" how it's done...But WHERE is he...?!?!

On the sidelines...No plan...No experience...No interest in contibuting to
the program.

Just an observer...never a player.

Steve, K4YZ
