The FCC may indeed rule, but that ruling won't change the facts!

You sound like the atypical code snob Steve. Getting rid of the code req. is
the best thing the FCC has done in a long time.

Nothing snobbish about it at all.

I suppose it is for those who are unwilling to learn it!

You seem to have this idea that no-code hams are somehow "dumber" that ones
who know it.

A large number are. What challenge is there to getting a ham license when
the test pool questions are available to anyone that wants them, and all
they have to do is memorize the answers? I actually had to know something
about what I was doing to get my license. I started like most with a Novice
ticket and 5WPM code. I taught it to myself by writing a BASIC program to
send to myself using my old VIC20 computer. A month later, I got my Tech
Plus ticket. I never could work my way up to 14WPM because I have to
'translate' in my head (like I do with all the human languages I have
studied), so didn't get my General till April 2000.
