Putting the "Real" back into _REAL_ Ham Radio
 
_REAL_ Ham Radio is a technical pursuit.

One area that remains easily open is the construction
of CW rigs - you need little more than an
oscillator.

Off-the-shelf talk-boxes are the stuff of which
CB is made, and not Ham Radio.

Therefore let us move to ban voice communications
from Ham Radio - a listen to 20m shows up inane
conversations from CB types only.

CW comms has always been the essence of Ham Radio,
and remains a feature of Ham Radio now that the
commercial world has moved into Sat comms.

So.....
1. Restore the 12 WPM Morse test around the world.
2. Cancel _ALL_ licences where the licensee has not
passed a 12 WPM Morse Test.
3. Remove all band plans - only Morse is now allowed.
4. All new licensees to be limited to their first year
op operation to 10W home-brewed rigs (And, of course,
on CW as there will be no more voice)
Let us fight the insidious march of the Mongolian
Hordes of CBers-Masquerading-As-Radio-Hams before it
is far too late!

The Armenian judges gave this a 9.8 on the Olympic Troll-O-Meter,
but they were overruled by the umpires in instant replay, who
awarded it a 2.6.

The Armenian judges lodged a formal protest!

It was sufficiently trollish, of course, but way too obvious.
It was poorly written, poorly executed, and was so incredibly
lame as to lack the true drawing power of a really masterful
troll. Maybe as high as a 3.1 for the intense stupidity of the
premise, but a 9.8? Never! The Armenian judges tear their
hair out, throw their balalaikas down in dismay, and perform
the traditional Armenian Dismay Chant! They demand a recount!

you don't even know what he Means?

good greif I know what Steve Stone means and I think the ARS would be
better off with Morse Code USE banned (but I don't addvocate it in the
US becuase I beleive the Code users have the right do such things even
if I find them wastefull or counter productive
