And yet, I've never seen any evidence of them lobbying Read the Report and Order for 98-143. The comments most quoted by FCC in its restructuring decisions weren't those of ARRL, NCVEC, or even NCI. Not those of any individual, either. The comments most quoted by FCC in its restructuring decisions were those of Kenwood of America. 73 de Jim, N2EY |

OK, here's my current thinking....
July 1, 2006 Cheers, Bill K2UNK wrote in message ups.com... Here's an update on the "when will FCC drop Element 1?" pool. Note how almost everyone's date, including mine, has already passed: WA2SI: September 13, 2003 KF6TPT: September 29, 2003 KC8EPO: December 31, 2003 K2UNK: January 1, 2004 K2ASP: March 15, 2004 AA2QA: April 1, 2004 N2EY: April 15, 2004 N3KIP: May 1, 2004 KC8PMX: July 1, 2004 WA2ISE: August 1, 2004 K3LT: September 15, 2004 WK3C: December 30, 2004 N4PGW:May 22, 2005 N8UZE: July 1, 2005 AB2RC: July 1, 2007 KB3EIA: July 5, 2007 W5TIT: June 1, 2008 Anybody want to add a prediction? If so, the "rolling rule" (thanks Dee, N8UZE) applies: If your prediction on this list is a year or more in the past, you can add a new one. At this point N3KIP and everyone before him can add a new prediction. All predictions stay on the list. 73 de Jim, N2EY |

![]() "an_old_friend" wrote in message ups.com... Bill where do come up with that date (july 1 06) in case google edits all down Just curious Just a SWAG based on several things: 1. Prospect (unknown) of an NPRM from the FCC before the end of this year (2005) which then... 2. requires a set of comment phases...followed ultimately by 3. an actual rules change with an effective date usually several months from the published date. Cheers, Bill K2UNK |

![]() Bert Craig wrote: I will go on the record with the prediction that Element 1 will NOT go away completely as first thought. It will be dropped for Tech "+" and General privies, but retained for the Extra. I am willing to bet that you've got the right combination, at least for now, Bert. I see a two class license structure on the next "restructuring" round. That's not to say I like it or support it, but I bet that's where we end up. I think enough folks have written to the FCC, as well as their elected officials, (Some of whom have a say in the FCC's budget.) and expressed their wishes that we not follow suit with the nations that have completely dropped the code from their licensing process. A-yup. 73 Steve, K4YZ |
