Len:

I can see the new issue of "Hot Mama Truckers" when it hits the stands. A
leather thong clad "Mama Trucker", with the mike of her KeenWood in her hand,
her other hand resting on a custom made 3KW Davemade Amp. Cowboy encased foot
on the side board of her Peterbilt and a wide, and somewhat, toothless grin.
And, leaning against a rather phallic shaped object which is actually a 1/2
wave mobile antenna for 10 meters... ahhh, what a centerfold!

Doesn't that just present a beautiful visual to your mind? Doesn't she look
like a darn angel on that "video screen in your mind?"

I tell ya Len, life is good...

My gawd, get out the antacid, laxatives, etc and pass them out freely!!!!

I need them not...but what IS needed for some of these beeping
bleeping PCTA extras is SMART PILLS. Geez, what a group of
conspiracy thinkers and those who SEE things that aren't there!

This belly-aching is going to go on forever, fact is CW looks almost certain
to
fall. And, the CB'ers are on the march to get their "KeenWoods" and
"davemade"
products now, in anticipation...

shrug

... amateur radio is about to take on a new personality.

Damn good! The OLD personality was getting terminally
geriatric what with all the "pioneering by morsemanship"
triumphed as the Second Coming in radio...in 2005.

Truckers with extra licenses, house wife's as generals, kiddie techs, the
possibilities are endless...

John, ANYONE can get a ham license if they want one.

Some PCTA extras have blabbed that over and over and over
again to me.

"TRUCKERS!?" Hell no, they can't go! They used evil,
wicked, mean, nasty, and HIGHLY ILLEGAL CB!!!

cry bye

How many folks are actually going to do all that?



Hundreds of thousands of us have done it to date.


And no doubt that many people will. There will probably be a larger
percentage that do not, as the requirements ease. Soon a good
"test-taker" will be able to get that license with a lot less effort.
There will be a lot of casual Extras.

No big deal, but it *will* be a side effect of the new testing
requirements.

I wonder how much credence the FCC gives to a person that uses their
feedback gathering mechanism to attack other people?

But what would be the rationale of giving the priveliges of a class that
tehy chose to remove (not test for, and eventually merge with
Technician) earlier?

Oh, my, all that SPECULATION and the "bearing down heavily!"

WT Docket 05-235 is about ONE thing and ONE thing only: Delete
or retain the morse code test...(SNIP)

Hey Mike...

See what I was saying in another thread about certain posters
always dragging any discussion into his realm, no matter what...?!?!

Yup.

Kinda like the Rush Limbaugh show. I listened for several months, and
then I knew exactly what he was going to say on any given topic. So I
didn't have to listen any more.

I still read every word the lad writes though. Then I simply choose not
to respond. Kinda like a zen revenge, I guess! ;^)

Yeah I think we won't see any major changes. There will be a noticeable
blip in upgrades but that's about it. Actually the fact that it is being
implemented at the time of a sunspot minimum means we are at risk of losing
hams as they upgrade, find the HF bands difficult and then drop out. We'll
really need to do some exra Elmering to help the new people and keep them in
the hobby.

Maybe we should ask NASA to launch ECHO again, but make it miles and miles
wide, just to reflect HF signals. That way they will have perfect
propagation and make life so much easier for the poor babies.

I may have to follow your advice, I have noticed the neighbors have began
locking up their dogs, and pulling them away by their leashes as I walk
past them.

At first, I did not think much about it... now that I have
looked in a mirror, I do see a slightly "deranged" look which must be a
dead giveaway...

Actually using that forum to comment and debate the issues...
