The FCC would also recognize a copy of your former Novice license as proof you passed 5 wpm. Yes that is true but I was addressing the case of someone who's first license was a Technician. If it was a tech plus, that means that they passed a 5wpm code test. Which should also be good. What strangely enough happened is say someone who never passed a 5wpm test but passed 13 or 20, doesn't get the lifetime credit. Some FCC brearucrat writing the rules didn't realize that he should have written "5 WPM or faster". He might have thught 5 was harder than 13 or something like that... Kinda scary, eh? Should serve as a reminder to all who repeat the "but the FCC says..., but the FCC says..., but the FCC says..." mantra solely because it serves their current agenda. 73 de Bert WA2SI |
