I especially liked the bit about using a code reader as a handicap accomodation for the Morse test! I am a VE and never thought of that! Can you imagine if we had tried to get that past the ARRL VEC - they would have flipped for sure, but I think it may well meet the rules. I am certain as is a Lawyer I know, if I were not certain other means would prevail (even thought hey have taken longer than I thought) I would likely have tried the formal complaint under DoJ rules to find out It's all academic now, or will be soon. The NPRM abolishes the code test, and the R&O will do the same. The pro-code test side have lost the war. Roll on VC Day (Victory over the Code Day, LOL!). now or soon it is time to pick up the peices, 73 de Alun, N3KIP (A 20wpm Extra who wasted years learning Morse code that I will probably never use) |
