[CW] What it Means.

[David J. Ring, Jr.]

Don,

NIGHTMARE:  Is there a International requirement that amateur stations be
"LICENSED"?
I don't know... but let's say there isn't.  Let's say it just defines how
Amateurs are permitted to be on the air...

Now, if FCC said - NO MORE TESTS, NO CW, NO THEORY, we will just give you a
PERMIT to operatel

Would that by-pass the Part 15 regulations because Amateurs are NO LONGER
LICENSED?

I see this happening within 2 years.

not  cause harmful interference to licensed services, and must accept all
interference to  licensed services.  Plus, the hf allocations are governed
by international treaty, which the US and all other countries are required
by international law to respect.  Couldn't this be the basis of a
class-action lawsuit on behalf of ALL licensed users of the hf spectrum?
