[Elecraft] RE: Sad day

[Stuart Rohre]

I invite those seeking answers to why the code testing requirement was
dropped to read the FCC's definition of the ham radio service given in the
NPRM, as well as the detailed FCC comments to each of the petitions they
considered.

They clearly made a case of why test by mode, as CW is a mode; when there
are so many other modes.

They also made it clear the VEC was free to establish the test topics based
on input from the tested community and existing ham operators.

So, when the time to revise question pools is announced; be sure to notify
the VEC of what you would believe hams should be tested upon.
