Elimination of CW is a loss in the number of ways we can communicatewith other.
somebody wrote ... Code elements should be 13 wpm for General, and 20 wpm for Extra. Make the no-code license one year non-renewable. .... and new aircraft pilot license requirement: Demonstrate an engine start by spinning the prop -- by hand. Even if you intend to fly only jets, some old "prop-job" might be the only thing that can get through in an emergency. I wonder: Did the radio amateur community go through anything like this for the transition away from spark? |
