Here are mine Keith;
I think the total ellimination of the Morse Code (CW) requirement will
prove detrimental to the Amateur Radio Service. I believe it will make
it so easy for trash to get into the ARS that it will eventually sound
like CB Radio.
The testing has already been reduced to multiple guess. The CW test is
a ten question joke. In general you should NOT reduce the requirements
ANY MORE.
I base my comments on over 40 years as a FCC licensed Amateur Radio
Operater, I presently hold a pre give away EXTRA class license.
Thank You for your time.

the elimination of Morse Code testing as a requirement
to operate on HF.
Scan of the Original document submitted by Ham Radio operators to
eliminate all requirements for morse code testing to obtain a Amateur

I have filed my comments too, with a copy of the petition I would have
filed if NCVEC had not filed first.
