Tony,
There is a guy here on 2 meters that tells us his daughter "learned" only
half the letters, and NO numbers and took the 5 wpm test.
Guess what? She passed! Her dad wasn't happy at all, saying she should
have at least learned the whole alphabet.
Then she grabbed a microphone and like ARRL says: "Now you're talking!"
She is now an Amateur Extree Class Licensee.
