While I supported the no-code and still continue to do so, I must
agree with Chris that testing is lacking as well as a good technical
pool of questions.  Kudos to the Houston ECHO society for the way that
Charlie, N0XFD et al is teaching the tech class.  I do not like the
week-end memorize the question pool enough to take the test method
either.  It IMHO really cheapens the process of those who have gone
before and produces a substandard product.

And, I would contend that there are a few repeaters in the Houston
area that IMHO have already been lost to the 10-4 good buddies.
