Question For Hams
 
Why the gnashing of teeth about the elimination of code? It's not like
the collective IQ of the hobby could sink much lower. The airwaves are
dominated by inbred white trash with so little gray matter activity it
makes one wonder how they received their license in the first place.

Either the test isn't as difficult as they pretend it to be or more
likely, their cousin Earl was administering the test and grading it
with a wink and a nod. There is simply NO WAY many of these hillbillies

could pass the Extra exam without help. So SHUT THE **** UP about no
code marking the decline and fall of ham radio!

Sour grapes? Have you tried taking a ham test? Failed maybe?
