(whole bunch of Len's errors and insults snipped in the interest of
time and space)

Tsk, M. Superior does ruler-spank and forgets her habit needs
cleaning. :-)

The fact is that the "incentive licensing" changes were an attempt to
*return* to a system something like that which existed before February
1953. The complexity of the final result was due in large part to it
being pieced together from the numerous non-ARRL proposals mentioned
earlier.

If that is true (and it is not) then there were FIVE classes
of amateur radio licenses prior to "incentive licensing."

Actually, there were six classes of amateur radio licenses in the USA
from 1951 until the mid-1970s. They were Novice, Technician, General,
Conditional, Advanced and Extra.

Clever, casually omitting the period between the "mid-1970s"
up to 1991 and the creation of the no-code Technician class.

Why?

YOU didn't mention it...Why should he have?

That period of time ALOS falls into YOUR "I had an on-going
interest" rants. Pointing out that there was the creation of a class
of license that would even allow a non-hacker such as yourself to get a
license for access to 97%+ of all Amateur priviledges in that interim
only serves to show that despite getting EASIER to get on the air, you
STILL can't manage to get past the basics....

The number of amateur radio license classes in the USA remained at 5
until the Technician Plus lucense was created in the early 1990s.

"Lucense?"

"focussed"...?!?!?

YOUR favorite typo, Lennie.

False. The Technician with 5wpm code ran concurrently with the
Technician license without code. That lasted for about two years, then
we got the "Plus" as a marker for the code accomplished.

But then the strangest thing happened. It went back to "Technician"
and you have to keep track of your code "accomplishment" yourself.
Doesn't sound like the FCC values the code "accomplishment" all that
much.

The FCC didn't think that manual morsemanship was worth their
decision in granting ANY amateur license in the 1990 NPRM.

Yet they still REQUIRE it sixteen years later, despite having had
thier hands un-tied almost three years ago.

Obvioulsy it IS still an issue, even to them!

Those are the plain and simple facts, Len.

Those are almost the plain and simple facts, Jim.

Jimmy is a Code Bigot -and- Code Zealot. He CANNOT be corrected
on anything by a no-code-test advocate.

So Jim Miccolis is a "bigot" and a "zealot" for his beliefs, yet
YOU are an "advocate"...?!?!

Nice spin-doctoring, Herr Goebbels.

How is it a failure for someone to state the facts?

Simple. Your "facts" failed. I corrected them, but you need not thank
me.

Jimmy "thanks" only other morsemen.

More diminutives thrown in the face of a person who treats you
with respect.

Pretty much leaves all of your "I'M A PRO-CODE-TEST-BIGOT VICTIM"
rants in the trash, Lennie.

btw, the 1951 restructuring that gave us the license classes with names
rather than letters was not primarily driven by ARRL.

Sweetums, do NOT go into your smokescreening by diversion
routine again. That's SO transparent.

You don't really know what caused the 1951 restructuring, do you, Len?

I didn't think so.

Tsk. M. Superior at it again.

In 1951 I was graduating from Senior High School, coming up
on Draft eligibility and the Korean War was going hot and
heavy in northeast Asia.

Uh huh.

Still lot's of people managed to pass the Novice tests then.

Even more managed to pass the Exams for the other classes.

You were not one of them.

I went to work full-time as an
illustrator to get enough money to attend a good art school.
A radio hobby was way low on my priority list then. [I would
voluntarily enlist in the US Army in early 1952]

Hmmmmmmmmm......

In 1972 I was a Sophomore in High School, working two part time
jobs (without the benefit of yet having a driver's license),
hitch-hiked out to the airport to start my flying lessons, and was
active in the Civil Air Patrol Cadet program.

Oh yeah...I also got my Novice license, WN8OAH, in the middle of
all of that.

I would voluntarrily enlist in the US Marine Corps in 1974.

Where was Jimmy in 1951? Did he exist? No. 1951 is 55 years
ago. Was Jimmy somehow "impressed" with the moral necessity
to be an amateur morseman before conception?!? Probably so...
morsemanship is in his jeans.

Here's Lennie taling sexual innuendo lessons from Morkie.

Jimmy thinks it HIGHLY IMPORTANT that all get amateur radio
history (as told by the ARRL) CORRECT. Failure to do so,
showing the slightest imperfection of factual detail (as
lectured by Jimmy) is a moral and ethical felony
punishable by ruler-spank and personal denigration.

So far, we've not been treated to anything of a "historical"
nature by Jim Miccolis that WASN'T true.

So it seems the "moral and ethical felonies" alluded to by Lennie
were Lennie's.

(rest of Len's errors snipped for sake of time and space).

Are you going to tell us again?

(Jim's errors kept for posterity)

His errors should be pasted on his posterior.

I doubt Jim's "error's" need any more room than the tip of one,
maybe two fingers.

However considering the number of times YOUR hide has been left
exposed in this forum, I'd say it's a pretty good thing that YOU have
the "vast expanses" to archive upon, Lennie....

Steve, K4YZ
