We're in agreement on the first part, anyway. But I doubt it will make any difference. Many of the 18 petitions included various changes to entry-level license privileges, including the very obvious one of giving Novice/Tech Plus HF privileges to all Techs. Yet FCC repeatedly denied all of them. In the NPRM, FCC makes it clear that their vision of the future looks like this: wrong again How is it wrong, Mark? by not being right first proble is in asuming the FCC has a vision of the future second that saying such a vision is clear All the FCC proposes to do in the NPRM is to drop Element 1 from the requirements. Nothing else - in fact, other changes have been specifically denied. If that is done, the following will be the inevitable result: Technician: Entry-level license. All VHF/UHF, no HF With no Element 1, the only way for new hams or existing noncodetested Techs to get any HF will be to go for General. the NPRM is anything but clear that is the result they intend. inddeed for the sake the ARS I hope it is what they end up doing. amusingly so Does Jim Heaney (sp?) of the ARRL General: Mid-level license. All VHF/UHF, most HF/MF As it is today, without Element 1 Extra: Top license, all privileges. As it is today, without Element 1 Novice, Tech Plus, Advanced: Old license classes that will disappear with attrition. Which has been going on for the past 5-1/2 years. No free or automatic upgrades. Specifically denied by FCC. Nobody loses privileges and nobody gains privileges. No HF for Technicians who haven't passed a code test. That's what Hans is trying to fix. Unfortunately FCC doesn't seem to see that as a problem. |
