Your strangle hold on the amateur service may not
end until the actuarial tables kick in, but they will end.

Jim has a "strangle hold" on ham radio?

That claim is incorrect.

Probably. And you've probably never hammered a rivet into place,
either.

Gee, I didn't know!

Me neither.

Hey, Jim --- loosen up and let me breathe!

;-)

It seems very odd that I'd be accused of having a stranglehold
in a thread where all I did was post people's opinions about
when FCC would drop Element 1.

I've learned that people's opinions are now assertions of fact. As
assertions of fact, they are either right or wrong, truthful or
intentionally decitful (lies). At the end of the day, you either had a
right opinion, or you lied. You have Robeson to thank for that.

So, did you have a right opinion about the elimination of El. 1? Or
was it the latter?

If it were up to me, all amateur radio licenses would require
at least a 5 wpm code test. And they'd all have better (not
harder) written tests too.

I'm going to recommend 60wpm for the Extra exam, everyone retests, no
waivers.

But it's not up to me.

It's up to some of your PCTA Cronies employed by the FCC.

So I'll continue to give FCC my thoughts, ideas and opinions
on the issues, and my reasons behind them. Maybe FCC will
agree, maybe not. Hardly a "stranglehold". Just democracy
in action.

73 de Jim, N2EY

I hope you're prepping for that 60wpm exam. You could start by not
wasting your time here.
