Here's an update on the "when will FCC drop Element 1?" pool.
Note how almost everyone's date, including mine, has already passed: WA2SI: September 13, 2003 KF6TPT: September 29, 2003 KC8EPO: December 31, 2003 K2UNK: January 1, 2004 (first prediction) K2ASP: March 15, 2004 AA2QA: April 1, 2004 N2EY: April 15, 2004 N3KIP: May 1, 2004 (first prediction) KC8PMX: July 1, 2004 WA2ISE: August 1, 2004 K3LT: September 15, 2004 WK3C: December 30, 2004 N4PGW: May 22, 2005 N8UZE: July 1, 2005 N3KIP: December 31, 2005 (second prediction) K2UNK: July 1, 2006 (second prediction) AB2RC: July 1, 2007 KB3EIA: July 5, 2007 W5TIT: June 1, 2008 Anybody want to add a prediction? If so, the "rolling rule" (thanks Dee, N8UZE) applies: If your prediction on this list is a year or more in the past, you can add a new one. At this point everyone before N3KIP can add a new prediction. All predictions stay on the list. 73 de Jim, N2EY |
K=D8HB wrote: "K4YZ" wrote It was one of your many unsubstantiated assertions. Rrap is like the bible .... it's all unsubstantiated .... just take it "on faith". Steve takes nothing on faith. I don't even want to think what he would call those who penned the Bible. |

Steve takes nothing on faith. Not from you and Lennie. You're proven liars. Why would I take anything on "faith" from a proven liar, Brain? What have YOU done to disprove my allegations of your dishonesty? I don't even want to think what he would call those who penned the Bible. I call them "men". Why? What do YOU call them?

sorryJim but failing to back up an opinion doesn't mean they can't, may
mean they simply choose not to bother |

It will be dropped for Tech "+" and General privies, but retained for the Extra. I am willing to bet that you've got the right combination, at least for now, Bert. I see a two class license structure on the next "restructuring" round. That's not to say I like it or support it, but I bet that's where we end up. I think enough folks have written to the FCC, as well as their elected officials, (Some of whom have a say in the FCC's budget.) and expressed their wishes that we not follow suit with the nations that have completely dropped the code from their licensing process. A-yup. 73 Steve, K4YZ |

I see a two class license structure on the next "restructuring" round. That's not to say I like it or support it, but I bet that's where we end up. I'd vote for all of it myself. Problem is though that crystal-balling what the FCC actually comes up with is like playing Russian roulette with three rounds in the cylinder. Maybe four rounds . . . Like Shultz would say "I doan bet on NOTTING!". In this game. Which is why I haven't. And won't. I think enough folks have written to the FCC, as well as their elected officials, (Some of whom have a say in the FCC's budget.) and expressed their wishes that we not follow suit with the nations that have completely dropped the code from their licensing process.
