[Fists] Maia Wastes No Time

[Jeff Davis]

The following from the ARRL Web today reporting on The National Conference 
of Volunteer Examiner Coordinators (NCVEC) having formed a committee to 
develop an FCC rule making proposal for a new entry-level Amateur Service 
license.

Of particular note was this little plum:

(Fred) Maia (W5YI) offered up the possibility of asking the FCC to 
eliminate the Morse testing requirement immediately, easing code exam 
format restrictions and giving serious thought to dropping CW-only subbands 
as well.
