So increasing the speed requirement will get us better & smarter hams. Who is "we"? Who is Robesin? FCC makes the rules. They're the ones who have to be convinced. For more than 25 years, FCC has been convinced that the Amateur Radio license exam requirements should be reduced. The changes have come a little at a time, but the direction has been the same since the late 1970s. So what's the hold up? Code has nothing to do with intelligence, not6hing to do with dumbness. I know, but we can send them emails and tell them we won't go for anymore dumbing down or simplification. Do you plan to take up arms against your government if they drop the code? They'll do what they want, but at least we tried. SC You tried to be a Luddite... |
