FJF: Bill, are you referring to the ARRL's executive action regarding
"incentive licensing" (when they proposed slicing away General class privileges
to make way for the newly cordoned-off Advanced and Extra spectra),

I think that was it, and I was an Extra then. (In fact, I've been an Extra
since 1952.)

There were a lot of good General 75M nets messed up by that. Of course, back in
1951, I believe, the Generals, nee Class B, were first allowed in the 75 and 20
Meter bands. (I was a Class A er Advanced at the start of that. I got my Extra
just for funsies.) So, to this day, I guess I have mixed emotions about it all.
I do dislike any executive action anywhere that counters the popular desire.
