"I got me???"

And you complain about other Ops?

Indeed.


Oh come now, it doesn't count, because he was already a ham! The other
guy was just a CBer that managed to pass a test!

Let's get a grip on reality here folks.

It must be human nature, when you get something for nothing, you don't
appreciate it as much, or try to take care of it the same as something
you had to work for. That's why dumbing down ham tests is bad. Having
a license doesn't mean anything.


If we made getting a driver's license more difficult, would
people appreciate it more?



Easier EE exams will produce better engineers?

I didn't answer because he: 1. chose to change the subject and
2. refused to answer my question. So he didn't deserve an answer.

I wouldn't appreciate my EE degree any more if it had been harder
to obtain. I just might not have obtained it. But that is an
irrelevant diversion thus no answer from me.

If the goal is "better" amateur radio operators, let's make
obtaining a license so difficult that only two people can
obtain it.
