*NO* code test for an amateur radio license means FREEDOM
for amateur radio hobbyists to pursue the OPTION that the
FCC gives all licensed operators...the OPTION of using
any allocated mode in any band below 30 MHz.


They have that freedom now, Len.


only if they are willing to violate the law, JIM I do not and if you
have your way never will have that freedom

I spent 5 years trying very very hard to get it. I have little (if
anything) to show for that effort.

in most form of law something become permenet or impossible if attemped
for a full year

from the ProCode side we see NO room for anything exhalations to work
and slave I am certain I have put far more effort on code along than
you put into in ALL of your licensure(not your day to day haming)

no the world is not fair and while in principle my satus even if I am
the only american should allow for an exception it seems I am far from
alone I recall reading of someone spending 10 years and finaly making
it. why is such effort justified for the option to never use it again
esp in a world where Computers can if not operate the mode WELL (how
well they do it is debated) can certainly operate the mode better than
I (and others) ever would be

would you ask a man with with hearing problem not to use a hearing aid
to take the code test he can't do the deed without it? then why deny me
and others our right use your pcs or other devices that allow to use
Morse Coded CW

I have operated quite abit on machine Morsed CW . did a lot sending
practice stuff for my firend working on the higher code speed required
in 1997- 99. anybody that can could follow my typing with zero proofing
(instead of the minimal proofing here on RRAP) could pass a test . OTOH
I found I could read there "buig sent stuff fairly well certainly
enough for my brain which is used to seeing text in a distorted manner
could follow indeed during this code practice on 6 I even scored some DX
