Let's keep the CB'ers on CB. 1: No more automatic renewals. Individuals must retest and pass all elements required for their license class. 2: The passing score for written exams needs to be raised to 85%. 3: Code elements should be 13 wpm for General, and 20 wpm for Extra. 4: Make the no-code license one year non-renewable.

I have a better idea.
Lets require all Ham radio operators take an I.Q. test. Only upon passing the test would an operator be allowed Amateur privileges. A score of 130 would be required. This would eliminate 98% of hams and also eliminate overcrowding of the band. The 98% of Amateurs who flunk would automatically be termed CBers. This shouldn't be a problem because 98% of Amateurs are nothing but self glorified CBers anyway. They just would never admit it. Problem solved. |

The point I was trying to make is that the amateur radio hobby matured
about 3 decades ago. It's membership is aging rapidly and the number of active participants is declining. As the baby boomer generation dies off at an increasing rate the amateur radio hobby will continue to fade away. Fiddling with the test requirements isn't going to magically entice younger blood away from the many other license-free ways of communicating. I would venture to say that you could open the ham bands completely CB style and not get a big jump in membership. There are just too many other interesting, easy to use ways of communicating that that younger people are accustomed to using. I wish it were otherwise. Making the ham radio test more of a challenge as you suggest misses the point completely. The point is that there will be a diminishing number of people with any interest becoming a ham, no matter what the requirements are. L. wrote: "John S." wrote in message oups.com...

The point is that there will be a diminishing number of people with any interest becoming a ham, no matter what the requirements are. You "could" be and may very well be right in that regard as to the numbers increasing or not if the bands were completely opened. But since most of this crap evolved around CODE and then the "learning" ability of "exam" material - those issues are not the complete problem. As I said, if you want to "learn" anything, effort is the key. All through our lives, we all have to LEARN "something" to make us who/what we are in life. You learn to do your job, even if it isn't from a text book. But, you have to admit - except for sweeping floors, pumping gas, washing windows, etc......... it DOES take "effort" to learn the tasks. Once you master them - then usually it is a piece of cake. "Learning" should never end for anyone - until their number is up here on earth. In code, you learn ._ is "A". In driving - you learn to put your left turn signal on and then turn the wheel left - to make a left turn in your vehicle. In a factory or on a construction job - you learn hand signals to instruct a crane-man at a job site. Whatever it is - you learn "something" to get you by in life - be it a job, hobby or whatever. In most cases (except code) - NOT learning - could get you or others injured or killed. I DOUBT - anyone jumped in a car the first day and went and passed their drivers exam - it took EFFORT to learn to drive (safely). I DOUBT anyone - jumped in a plane and passed their pilots test the first time in the plane - it took EFFORT. Even to pass a physical ability test for some jobs - TAKES EFFORT. Any SOLDIER or PRO or even high school/college athlete who has excelled - will tell you that. To the screwball who said BULL **** to "effort" - he claims to be an EME user on his website. I'm DAMNED sure he didn't just wake up one day and decide to try EME - and be eh - fair(?) at it! SOMEWHERE along the line - it took EFFORT to acquire the knowledge, license and materials to do so. Too bad he doesn't make some "effort" to "spell" properly - MOST of his bull **** has been misspelled so poorly, he comes across as a tard. No wonder he gets picked on......... Misspelled words, "NEEDED" wars, etc.......... SHEESH. I misspell a word here and there once in a while in error - as do many others. BUT there are SOME who seem to KILL IT when it comes to spelling. They never heard of "spell check"? Can't even make effort to use THAT to make them look a bit brighter. It doesn't matter how easy or hard the tests are - Code or NO Code - the point here in this thread and others similar is - it seems some want it "handed" to them and all I'm saying is EFFORT will help you get it and you'll be rewarded - your achievement - be it a license, an upgrade in license OR a job promotion with subsequent pay raise or position. So what if you never use the code again to save a life or just to chat on the air - who cares? To pass the muster for some promotions in the service, you have to prove physical ability, and some of those things needed to be done - you may never have to make use of again. Tell your senior officer you're not going to do it and see what you hear in return........... IF YOU WANT IT BAD ENOUGH - YOU"LL DO IT. Of course - weinie boy who thinks effort is bull **** and believes we NEEDED wars - wouldn't have a clue. So the quiestion is now - did he cheat on his exam and had his license handed to him OR have the equipment donated to not have to make the EFFORT to acquire it all? Opening up the bands won't be the answer to the "population" of the bands. IF I were God, had a Crystal Ball, I might be able to give the "exact" answer. I've "never" claimed to have it nor do I now. All I can say, is we know where we're headed and it will be interesting in say 5 years or so - to see how we do indeed end up. Changes "could" come about to revive it, open the bands up OR shut them down. Right now, they are somewhat protected by Vongress, but the Congress members are usually able to be bought out by special interest groups - so - NEVER SAY NEVER............ we could be sold out next year if enough of them get their heads together. Then - all of these threads will be moot points. Hell, we may end up paying to type/read this - over and above our ISP payment. There WAS a move to do so......... Nothing to say it couldn't happen if someone tries it again. L. |
