Hans:

I am curious why you want the two year "no upgrade" period. I would think
such a rule would greatly reduce the appeal of ham radio. It certainly would
have caused me to spend my time, effort, and money on another hobby.

The "Class B" license would have an entry-level test (basic
regulations, safety, operating procedures, basic DC and AC
electronics). This class would have full frequency and
mode privileges, power limited to 50W output. The license
would be issued for a period of 10 years, and be non-renewable.
Holders of this license would be required to have 2 years
experience as a licensee ("time in grade") before being
eligible to upgrade to "Class A".
