Well, well, well.................... After I posted my comments and recovered from laughing at Other than myself and Lennie, I only found ONE other semi- regular of this group had cared enough to comment: WA2ISE. Missing? K0HB, W5TIT, N8UZE, W5DXP, K2UNK, N2EY, AA2QA, K3LT, W3RV, KB9RQZ, N0IMD, WK3C, W1RFI, N3KIP, KC2HMZ, K8MN. Steve, W5DXP, K3LT, WK3C, and W1RFI haven't posted to rrap in a long time. Cecil decided to focus on antennas soon after the 2000 restructuring. He said in here that 5 wpm was the right level, he resigned his NCI membership and went on to other things. Larry's work and other interests caused him to spend his time differently. Carl has shown up once or twice but his main focuses have been his job, house, anti-BPL and NCI duties. Heck, he was so busy it took him a year to get his Extra and vanity call. Ed has been focused on fighting BPL. He's also an ARRL staffer, so he may prefer not to even give the appearance of a conflict. Soooooooooooo...... Where is everyone from BOTH sides of the aisle? It's only been a few days. There are weeks to go yet. Look at the responses - most of them are "Brief Comments", meaning a short yea or nay. Many are embarrassing in their poor spelling, grammar, capitalization and punctuation. Better to spend some time proofreading and polishing. There's also the perception some have that the whole thing may be a done deal already. Suppose the majority of commenters want code testing to stay, either as it is now or maybe just for Extra. Will that make any difference at all to what FCC does? Back in 1999, a member of NCI read and tallied up the comments and found that the *majority* wanted either two or three code test speeds. Yet FCC went to 5 wpm only. On another note, I notice both Maia and West haven't said a word either...guess they figure they'll sell books one way or the other... Almost everything NCVEC wanted in their second petition was denied. 73 de Jim, N2EY 313 btw, you missed the biggest hoot in Len's comments - the part where he says he offers an "objective" view...AS IF! |
