It's pretty clear you won't believe them.

It should be clear to you that lots of US don't believe YOU!


I also support written tests. There are folks I know who have
repeatedly flunked the written tests - something about "math

ADA is about rights. A ham radio license is a privilege.

"ADA" is the callsign assigned to the Headquarters,
United States Army, Pacific (USARPAC). That callsign
has a proud heritage dating from 1946.

Have you thought of getting a tool that FITS into today's

and incomprehensible to those of us living in REALITY.
