Well then, why not just declare deafness to be a

problem with deaf people?
don't give him any ideas he comes close to express such a solution to
many of those that don't make the grade in some fashion wrt HIS
personal standards

Wonder why no-code ass hats like lee scott, eric oyen, doug adair, and mark
morgan can't get it done? (they're not deaf, just brain dead hud dwelling
sissy's)
but we all but have and I know we are aon the edge of success

CW is for old people anyway aint it?

Testify! That asswipe is too dumb to come in out of the rain. He's best

yet funny you can't do that neither of you

you go on and on about me and yet you insist you are ignoring me?

Can you dunk a basketball? If not, get back to us when you can.

I didn't know that was the hitch..can you still dunk?

If I don my knee braces, I still can. Can you?

The point is that some things are possible for each
individual and other things are impossible. Anybody
who can't dunk a basketball or pass a MENSA exam should
know how a person feels when they can't learn Morse code.
Cecil as good as it is your analogy still fails thanks to the fact that
if I can drunk (and I have no idea wether I can or not) it only means
something In Basketball. now if one inabilty to duck a basketball
barred them from all sports then you rise closer to the level of what
the code test is in the ARS
I personally think it would improve the ARS to only allow
MENSA engineers to be a member. How does that make you feel?

One of the brightest engineers I know, who has a commercial
FCC license and was the engineer at an AM broadcast station,
couldn't get past 5wpm so he was condemned to Tech class for
30 years. He knows more about radio than any ten other hams.

What you don't seem to realize is that dunking a basketball
and knowing Morse code are equally useful in the ARS.

well If Could dunk a basket ball it would be useful in being able to
put up antennas and such, but I begin to see your point

try 5 years at 40minute per day, I frankly prefer not to do the math to
come up with the nuber of hours

and still NO sucess

now of course if you respond to me at all you blame my metohod or my
unkonwn to you teachers etc.

everything to avoid the central issue why is Code knowledge more
important than the rest of Ham radio combined

that is the issue of course I say more important since their question
in pools about cw that tip it from equal to the rest to more important

But that certainly doesn't satisfy the letter of the regulations.
To do that, they must "copy by ear".

No, it does satisfy the alternative methods of copying code as
specified by the FCC.

but never satified the treaty lang on the subject and therefore in
violation of international law

Dave WD9BDZ

Why not get rid of the code? Really, why not make the written exam easier?
Just make exams covers enough to make sure some idiot doesn't kill
themselves or some body else.

Have only one class of license called "Amateur Radio License", with full
access to all bands. No matter what class a person holds now it would be
renewed as only "Amateur Radio License". Novices would be grandfathered
in.You couldn't get any worse class of ham than we do with the 20wpm
wonders.
