Stirrings in the veldt
 
It seems that the South African authorities have dropped their recent
licencing proposal and replaced it with a new one.

Their existing licencing scheme in South Africa has a Full (ZS call)
licence and a Restricted (ZR call) licence, the latter having privileges
above 30 MHz only, both taking the same theory test, but the ZS calls
having to pass a 12wpm code test. IOW, exactly as the UK A and B licences
were back when I first got a UK licence.

The authorities in South Africa reacted to the demise of the ITU code
test requirement in a truly bizarre way, by suggesting a third class of
licence with a ZT call, with a 5wpm code test and limited HF privileges.
This has been shelved, due to what they say were a large number of
comments. No such licence will now be implemented, so don't expect to
hear any ZT calls anytime soon.

Instead, they are proposing a dual route to a full licence, offering a
choice between either an advanced theory test or a code test for each
candidate. This was proposed by many people in many countries whilst
there still was an ITU requirement for a code test, but this is the first
time I have seen it resurface since it ended. If South Africa does
implement it, they will be the first and probably only country to do so.

They are also proposing to give the same limited HF privileges that they
would have given to the new licence, to the existing restricted licence
instead, without any addtional testing.

Sounds like a very reasonable compromise.

Why? Perhaps it could be a way out of the constant arguments. It wasn't
possible before, due to the treaty.

How many has in South Africa, anyway?

TAFKA Rev Jim, I'll explain it to you. SA has two existing coded HF
licenses. ITU says you can drop code, so they come out with a third
coded license. Bizarre.

Not quite right, the ZR licence is no-code, but yes, it is bizarre to greet
the end of the code requirement by suggesting a new licence with a code
test.

And Jim, I didn't say it was a bad idea to have a dual track system with
code and theory alternatives. It's actually quite a good one. No doubt now
someone will put that in petition number 18, or whatever number we are up
to now.

I won't though, because it isn't going to happen. We don't know exactly
what the FCC will do, but we do know two things that they are on record as
saying:-

1) They don't beleive that the code test serves a useful purpose;

2) They won't rearrange subbands until a consensus emerges amongst us.

So, we do know really (although some are in denial) that the NPRM will dump
Element 1 completely.

We can be rather less sure what it will do to reform the unnecessary
proliferation of licence classes, and the equally unneccessary slicing and
dicing of the ham bands that goes with it. I hope it might do something in
this regard, but it is perhaps more likely that it will do nothing, or at
least as little as possible, as they probably will decide that we still
don't agree with oneanother.

Why?

The revised treaty says that each country shall determine for itself what the
code test requirements for an amateur license will be. It appears that South
Africa is in the process of determining what it shall be for South Africa.
Perhaps there will be no test, or no change, or something in between.

And Jim, I didn't say it was a bad idea to have a dual track system with
code and theory alternatives. It's actually quite a good one. No doubt now
someone will put that in petition number 18, or whatever number we are up

I first suggested such a thing several years ago in my "Chinese Menu" license
concept. The idea was that there would be a "core" test requirement for the
lowest level of license, and upgrading could be accomplished by accumulating
credits in a variety of ways, such as specialized written tests, and code
tests.

I won't though, because it isn't going to happen.


Why not? Nobody has suggested it yet in the USA because in the past it would
have violated the treaty to have an HF license with no code test. Now it could
be done.

We don't know exactly
what the FCC will do, but we do know two things that they are on record as
saying:-

1) They don't beleive that the code test serves a useful purpose;


Not true!

They said it "serves no *regulatory* purpose"

2) They won't rearrange subbands until a consensus emerges amongst us.


I sure hope they don't!

So, we do know really (although some are in denial) that the NPRM will dump
Element 1 completely.


It ain't over until it's over, and even then it ain't over.

We can be rather less sure what it will do to reform the unnecessary
proliferation of licence classes,


What "proliferation"? We have 6 right now, with one scheduled to disappear in a
little over six years even if no rules changes at all are made. Two others are
disappearing by attrition.

and the equally unneccessary slicing and
dicing of the ham bands that goes with it.


Would you have only one class of license and no subbands by mode?

I hope it might do something in
this regard, but it is perhaps more likely that it will do nothing, or at
least as little as possible, as they probably will decide that we still
don't agree with oneanother.


And we don't.

Because, TAFKARJ, the country already has coded licenses. And they've
had since 1912 to perfect them. Now its time for them to try
something new and different, but instead they get more of the same.

I agree that Jim is being a little obdurate, but don't lose sight of the
fact that South Africa have dropped that plan. They at least are somewhat
open to persuasion.

That scumbag you run with likes to do that. Jim has never

Lennie does that because he cannot "argue" or "debate" Jim
otherwise. He has to make Jim appear less-than-adequate in order to
promote himself. The weak minded and the foolish HAVE to do
that...It's a defense mechanism.

Are YOU that weak minded and foolish?

He did the same thing with me when he launched into allegations

etc etc, when I had not so addressed him. He is treated and addressed
in the same tone and with the same viciousness as he unleashed.

I have a problem with you following in the footsteps of a person
who is a known pathological liar and antagonist. It's embarrassing to
see a contemporary Veteran and Amateur licensee resorting to Lennie's
tactics.

As for what "sounded good to (you)"...My question STILL

than "Brian"...?!?!

If not, why do YOU find it necessary to do so...?!?!

Are you, after all, as shallow and immature as I thought you

I SAID "please"...And to have fulfilled my request would have only
served to explain why YOU find it necessary to be demeaning and

Instead, you choose to be even MORE argumentitive and demeaning,
even further cementing your reputation.

That would be between the scumbag that I run with and TAFKARJ.

Do you often get involved with other people's issues?

He can. He has. And to a reasonable person, effectively. But
TAFKARJ remains in another world. A Ham in a Bubble.

He has to make Jim appear less-than-adequate in order to

Perhaps. But TAFKARJ has made himself less-than-adequate by altering
posts. It is a cross that he must bear (Mel, forgive me).

Are YOU that weak minded and foolish?


Don't know.

On a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the most weak-minded and foolish,
how high would you rate me?

He did the same thing with me when he launched into allegations

Stebe, you misunderstand (what's new?).

I am the ONE who has tagged N2EY with the title "TAFKA Rev. Jim" after
his dishonesty in altering Kim's posts. He previously put forth the
image of being as pure as the driven snow. But after that little
stunt, he can no longer be referred to as Reverend Jim. So, "formerly
known as" sounded good to me.

You got a problem with it?


I have a problem with you lying.


I have a problem with your lies, and your insane behavior.

I have a problem with you following in the footsteps of a person
who is a known pathological liar and antagonist. It's embarrassing to
see a contemporary Veteran and Amateur licensee resorting to Lennie's
tactics.


Len is also a Veteran and a Radioman.

As for what "sounded good to (you)"...My question STILL
remains...Did Jim refer to you by any name, title or endearment OTHER
than "Brian"...?!?!


No. He no longer refers to me at all. He keeps tripping over his own
tie, and won't acknowledge or explain his most recent irrational
policy positions WRT amateur radio.

If not, why do YOU find it necessary to do so...?!?!


Jim has tainted himself by altering posts. I can no longer revere
him, thusly, he is no longer Reverend.

Are you, after all, as shallow and immature as I thought you
really are?


No. Perhaps even more so. Perhaps almost as much as you are.


Brain, you will NEVER be as much as I am...good OR bad.


True. You're manic. Go see the definition.

Please give some specific example of how Jim has belittled or
demeaned YOU in a like manner...


Why? Shallow and immature people don't have to follow your orders.


What "order", Brain...?!?!

I SAID "please"...And to have fulfilled my request would have only
served to explain why YOU find it necessary to be demeaning and
rude...OR have proven why you were right and I was wrong.

Instead, you choose to be even MORE argumentitive and demeaning,
even further cementing your reputation.


Jim has been found guilty of altering posts.

Stebe, take a chill pill or whatever meds you forgot to take.


Uh huh....Just after you take your distemper shot, Brain, and
answer the question put to you. WHY do you find it necessary to be
rude and demeaning when no such epithets were addressed to you...?!?!

Steve, K4YZ

PS: I will assume any answer to the question that attempts to
redirect or obfuscate the response to be "I am unwilling to directly
answer the question as I know the truth to be other than what I
stated". Simple enough?


See above. Questions answered. Now what?

Steve,

Isn't the reason obvious?

That scumbag you run with likes to do that. Jim has never
refered to him as anything but "Len", yet "Len" finds countless ways
to belittle him.


I have also used the term "Mr. Anderson".

He did the same thing with me when he launched into allegations
of being a "jack booted thug", "Nazi", "elitist", "Dill Sergeant", etc
etc etc, when I had not so addressed him.


Don't forget "nursie" and being addressed by the wrong gender.

He is treated and addressed
in the same tone and with the same viciousness as he unleashed.

You've got kids, Steve. Haven't you had the situation where a kid
argues with you about bedtime - at bedtime? By arguing with the kid,
bedtime effectively becomes later because the kid isn't in bed when
s/he's arguing. But if you refuse to argue, you get less of a hassle.

Of course you don't, Brain. Probably due tot he fact that it's
your failure to understand why YOUR behaviour is the one in question
here...

YOU claim to have operated as "DX" from an area of the world in
which you obviously had no permission to operate from. I say
"obviously" since you cannot produce a single bit of evidence that you
DID have permission.

When asked to provide some documentary evidence of this
operation, you cannot provide a single QSL card, a single callsign of
somone who can verify they "worked" you, etc.

You then follow up THAT act by publically expressing admiration
and claiming as your "mentor" a person who ahs been clearly and
repeatedly documented as intentionally untruthful and openly spiteful
of the very radio service of which you are a licensee.

Several folks here have expressed disdain of my poking at you and
the Putzy one...Not because you don't deserve it, but because they
believe if you are "left alone", you'll go away.

I did that for a while and you didn't...Neither did your lying
friend.

I for one believe when you try to placate bullies and liars, you
only serve to embolden them.

Just as it is your right to lie and misrepresent, it's my right
to challenge and expose your lies and misrepresentations. You and
Lennie certainly give me plenty of opportunites to address them.

I think you're nuts.

Not at all, but you would like to think so.

Of course I do, Brain. Why would a rational person say something
he DIDN'T believe?


He could be:

a. lying.

b. not rational and doesn't know what he's saying.

I think you're not rational (nuts).


Of course you do.

You (and your "mentor") are the one's with credibility problems
here.

So.....How do YOU go about "fixing" it...?!?! You do your best
to try and put the onus of inpropriety off on anyone BUT yourself.
Since I work the hardest to keep your frequent foolishness in the
public eye, I catch the flak.

No problem. The worst YOU have to suggest is that I am "nuts" or
"irrational" for not allowing you and Lennie to get away with bullying
and lying.

So far, you've failed. Try again...?!?!

Steve, K4YZ


Whether I've failed or not is immaterial to your being nuts. You
would be nuts with or without my presence on rrap. Best of luck.

I am not the one who sets the rules, Brain.


You set your own rules.


Only when it comes to not accepting bullying and lying as
acceptable public behaviour.


Correct. You don't follow that rule, but you should.

You're favorite rule is "Do as I say, not as I do."

If he yells at you again "FALL DOWN AND GIVE ME TWENTY!!!"
tell him you have no cash but ask if he'll take PayPal instead... :-)

I am curious as to what training eithr of you ahve had in psychiatry...?!?!

The same "training" that Lennie has had in Amateur Radio, no doubt.

And Brain, you have indeed, in public, failed...

Luck is not needed here, Brain.

That which you call "nuts" is simply your attempt to writhe away
from being publically humiliated over and over, Brain.

Perhaps if YOU reconsidered YOUR own rhetoric and conduct, that
which you consider "nuts" would cease...?!?!

I consider anyone who publically expresses admiration for a

person who has been thoroughly documented as a liar and antagonist as
"nuts".

I consider anyone who makes public assertions that they

either cannot substantiate or validate via some third party source as
"nuts".

I consider anyone who's been caught doing those things who

then PERSISTS in doing them, contrary to evidence against them, as
nuts.

All of those things, Brain, would be you...

If calling me "nuts" makes you sleep better, or you feel you got
your sucker punch in, well then, I hope it makes that warm fuzzy
feeling for you. I think the evidence of odd behaviour rests on YOUR
shoulders, Brain...not anyone elses.

That I (or anyone else) apparently manage to effectively rub your
nose in your own errors and foolishness doesn't make me (us)
nuts...Just glad for the entertainment you provide. For that I (we)
thank you.

Your only contribution in here seems to be one of FIGHTING your
own little personal battles with imaginary foes and generally
coming unglued at the slightest provocation. That's unstable
behavior, obvious to lay people.
