Quote: 3.Based upon the petitions and comments, we propose to amend
our amateur service rules to eliminate the requirement that individuals
pass a telegraphy examination in order to qualify for any amateur radio
operator license.

It is long long overdue, but welcome nonetheless. I hope that it is in
time to turn around the trends that are so well known.
