AT THE TIME (1998-1999), it was IMPOSSIBLE to eliminate
the morse code test for ANY U.S. amateur radio license
having privileges of operating below 30 MHz. The barrier
was S25.5 of the ITU-R...colloquially known (or mis-known)
as "the treaty." [there is NO specific treaty on morse
code, only the honor system whereby all administrations are
supposed to adhere to ITU decisions on standards and
allocations]
Nebbermind that the US of A has broken lots of treaties that Jimmy
No-Serve has never protested.
and not to mention that the Treaty never said what a code test was, by
plain reading one could argue that sending a did and requiring the
teste to Id it it as E would be a test
