It's amazing what people will say to try to justify dumbing down Amateur Radio.

It's funny, and most telling. The no-code hams have everything over 30

If that's true, it's certainly a change from half a
century ago when we HF hams observed the VHF/UHF
hams revolutionizing amateur radio with their
technical expertise.
And half a century ago those VHF/UHF hams had passed a code test. They
weren't no-coders, they were motivated and did what it took. Today's
no-codes aren't motivated and don't want to make an effort, therefore
they're probably not going to be motivated to move things forward either.
Your defamation is well noted. Democracy just sucks, doesn't it?
