license renewal
wrote in message oups.com... From: Slow Code on Fri, Aug 18 2006 4:26 pm 2: The passing score for written exams needs to be raised to 85%. Wayyyy too low. 100%! Nothing less... Hey now wait a minute, 85% is probably the absolute best he (SC) could do - thus making that the ceiling! So, if you make it 100% - he too wouldn't be licensed! DAMNED........... that would be a shame. :) L. |

It's amazing what people will say to try to justify dumbing down Amateur Radio.

I had to take my license in front of the FCC and not so VE who may or may not help you out to get a license. As I am a big VHFer I don't know how these NO Code guys are going to understand beacons. They are all code and most at 10 ~ 20 wpm. I guess the next thing will be, they will want all beacons either digital or voice. YUK! Not up in the GHZ range yet but maybe some day. 73, Bill, WA0KBZ Right on, Bill! Thanks for your thoughts. NT It's funny, and most telling. The no-code hams have everything over 30 MHz, but it's the code hams that are the one's moving ham radio forward and doing anything technical wise. I guess the no-coders are still trying to figure things out. SC |

If that's true, it's certainly a change from half a century ago when we HF hams observed the VHF/UHF hams revolutionizing amateur radio with their technical expertise. -- 73, Cecil http://www.w5dxp.com |

And half a century ago those VHF/UHF hams had passed a code test. They weren't no-coders, they were motivated and did what it took. Today's no-codes aren't motivated and don't want to make an effort, therefore they're probably not going to be motivated to move things forward either. SC |

Actually, the Technician License was offered with reduced code requirements for hams who were more interested in technical experimentation than in ragchewing. -- 73, Cecil http://www.w5dxp.com |
