Easy there fellas...The TREATY requirement may be negated, but we
are still under FCC regulation...let's give them a day or two to see
how they are going to handle this.

No one said otherwise.

Actually, didn't the FCC say back in 2000 that the ONLY reason they kept a
code element in the requirements was the International Treaty requirement,
which has now disappeared?

That's how I read it.

Look at the thread title, Bill. "CW Requirement Abolished" - not "Treaty No
Longer Requires Code Test" or "S25.5 Revised" or anything like that. The
casual observer would think the code test is gone. Not yet,

Clearly the issue of code testing now becomes
a country by country decision.

Only once the new treaty is accepted by the various countries.

Simple: Congress ratifies it and the next day, the FCC creates the "no code
extra."

Naw, simpler than that. FCC just says "Element 1 waived for all applicants" or
"All applicants get credit for Element 1" or some such. One sentence and done.

You put a date in The Pool yet?
