"Mike Coslo" wrote in message ... William wrote: We've recently seen NCI criticized for commenting on restructuring proposals not directly related to the Morse and Farnsworth Exam issue. My concerns are not the NCI has an official position. It is that we have been told that their *only* agenda was the elimination of the Morse code test. THE agenda of NCI is elimination of code testing. NCI has recently received member input asking NCI to take a role in the ARRL petition and as a result, NCI conducted a member survey. Subsequent to that initial survey, NCVEC petition became known and NCI conducted another survey on the ARRL vs NCVEC differences. In addition, some prominent members are on record that they would never support reduction in the written qualifications, and now they do. Neither ARRL nor NCVEC proposes any lowering of written qualifications for General or Extra from what I have seen. If they were to have said "We are in favor of elimination of Element one and a reduction of qualifications for the licenses", I would have disagreed, but I can respect the position. I don't understand the "reduction in qualifications" argument you claim. But if the story keeps getting changed, both on a personal and group level, I am a little disappointed, and future assertions from them will have credibility in proportion. I doubt that they care what I think. It is not about caring what you may think, but rather what our (NCI) membership wants. Cheers, Bill K2UNK |
