> This past weekend the ARRL Board of Directors approved, with very minor
> modification, the proposal developed by its Executive Committee late
> last November.  This proposal is ARRL's suggestion for dealing with the
> elimination of the international treaty Morse code requirement at WRC-2003
> last summer.  A formal petition to the FCC is to be filed in a few weeks.
>
> You can read the proposal and supporting rationale as the lead news
> article on the ARRL web site at:  http://www.arrl.org
>
> And before you ask, I voted YES on the proposal.  Only one director
> voted against it and I understand his reasons for doing so had nothing
> to do with changing the CW requirement.
