My attitude toward many of the current crop of new techs is one bathed
upon five years observation, since returning to the U.S. I haven't
chased
them anywhere. In fact, it has been just the opposite. I've tried to
encourage them to use simplex on FM. I've tried to encourage them to
try
6 meters along with 432 and 144 MHz SSB and CW. I can't be faulted
that
they don't act after being encouraged. If these folks are, in fact
"trapped" in a world of 2m only FM repeater operation, they have
fashioned
the trap themselves by not being more curious about the rest of VHF/UHF
amateur radio. There are avenues open to them but they aren't
participating.

Man does that say it all in a well articulated paragraph. Valid points
out
there
in tech land.

Indeed it does. David has articulated, and Dan has agreed that a Tech
really isn't worth much as an amateur if they don't do the things that
Dave, Dan and Dee want them to be doing. I'm sure that your attitudes
spill over into your communication with those unworthy Techs.


Not only a Dip****, but a dumbass as well, eh N0IMD? Just keep making up
what you want.

The FCC wants the Technician to UPGRADE. So do we......whats wrong with
that?

The Technician ticket originally was envisioned to enable those that had
a
technical
slant that needed a place to play on the "air". It has degenerated
into a
defacto
"entry level" to present day Ham Radio. What a bummer.

Degenerated? Dan, I'd like to introduce you to the FCC sometime. It
was the FCC that turned the Technician license into your disdained
entry level to present day "Ham Radio."

Sure was.....and the FCC has degenerated into a home for Lawyers sucking on
the Federal tit. Got a problem with that? Truth is truth. The FCC
makes the
rules...yep they do. And they haven't a clue. Yep thats true too. Argue
that one.


I bet a lot of those out there don't know that the original Tech written
was
exactly
the same as the General. The ONLY difference was the General had a 13
WPM
cw test. Send and Receive. And the Tech had a 5wpm......and was
available
by
mail.

Perhaps the FCC should sent out invitations to upgrade if they want so
desperately for it to happen.

Plenty WRONG, "dip**** dumbass Dan." FCC did NOT "want anyone" to
do anything but obey the law.

Here's a clue, you southern-fried Einstein: FCC is NOT in ANY
position to endorse or motivate any radio amateur. They aren't
charterd by Congress to do so.

"Wanting anyone to upgrade" is a subject for clubs and private
organizations. Mostly that means the ARRL. Here's another clue:
The ARRL does NOT regulate U.S. amateur radio...regardless of
what they infer.

Sunnuvagun! [thank you Hans for originating that into the
mainstream of American colloquialisms over a
century or so back... :-) ]

Tsk, dip**** dumbass Dan, the southern-fried Einstein (wannabe).

Good luck with that now...
