Learning is part of the basis and purpose of the Amateur Radio Service,
not the basis and purpose of the license exams. The basis and purpose of the
license exams is to make possible the basis and purpose of the Amateur Radio
Service. In other words, to bring people into the Amateur Radio Service so
they can learn. The real learning comes after the exams in what we actually
do.
