Scattered around several other threads there have been several
dialogs as to how many licenses the USA should have for
amateur radio.

The options suggested so far seem to be:

(a) 1 License
(b) 1 License plus a "lerner's license"

i go for choice a or b
(c) 2 Licenses plus a "lerner's license"
(d) 3 Licenses
(e) 3 Licenses plus a "lerner's license"

What I wonder about these is how the individual
proponents of each would set the "difficulty
level" of each in comparison to current Tech/Gen/Extra
AND how they see privilege differences (in terms
of power levels and/or band segments and modes)
in multiple license options.

I see no merit in power limits unless the point is to drop some sorts
of questions out the learner license pool to keep it smaller

but the difficulty of the main test should be enough to be roughly
famier what what is need for safe operation without undue accidnetal
interference

I aleraner liecen priveldge simlar to the old noivce adding 2 m and 6m
(no p[ower limits except preahps as above hf access bas before with
voice mode premitted (by either sliding the sgement up into voice or
sliding voice down to old novice bands both have merit both have
problems)
