Citizen Band was created when they started issueing licenses without a CW
requirement.
From someone who entered via no-code and advanced to extra within a year
I take issue with that.
Perhaps the no-code license was the best thing that happened to amateur
radio. It removed an obstacle I wasn't ready to face at the time but
after a couple months I got my 5WPM code. And then a couple months later
my 13WPM and then the 20WMP.
What ticks me off is the watered down code requirement that we have now.
But in essence, we're all appliance operators now anyhow. It doesn't
really matter. And I think the days of amateur radio are numbered what
with BPL and such.
