[Elecraft] FCC exams

[Fred Smith]

I have heard such statements as that about the FCC testing and the way it
was done. I have also heard how easy it was to get a license back then not
like today where you have to have photo proof (3) pieces in hand to even
take the test. Not like when the FCC gave them a DL and old license was
given to someone to take the tests for them friends, brother-in-law or a
paid for the task. It was a common event because on a lack of identification
that we have in testing now.

Just another good reason that it's been done away with to have stopped that
abuse.

And I was denied entrance to the exam. I was literally almost across the
threshold of the door. You can't imagine how PO'd I was.

I hope you will remember that experience the next time you're tempted to
take a hard nosed, arbitrary approach to a person or a problem.
