Ham radio is a TECHNICAL hobby. We are required to pass an exam 
demonstrating that we understand the underlying principles, our 
privileges are based on our having that understanding, and it is our 
LAWFUL responsibility to transmit clean signals.

A major problem is that many hams have never bothered to learn the many 
fundamentals of radio, audio, and electronics, stopping after memorizing 
only enough Q&A to pass the exam for their license.
