ATTENTION AMATEUR RADIO OPERATORS


The FCC has issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking regarding changes in the Amateur Radio License Classes. ( WT Docket # 98-143 ) The ARRL RESTRUCTURING PAGE contains the ARRL proposal for restructuring, along with a copy of the FCC's proposal, and subsequent Errata to WT Docket No. 98-143. Please take a moment to read NO CODE INTERNATIONAL's recommendations regarding changes to the licensing process.
Remember YOU can file comments with the FCC regarding proposed licensing changes!

EDITORIAL

The FCC's notice of proposed rulemaking came up short of my expectations.
The only things that the FCC directly addressed was their desire to eliminate the Novice and Technician Plus licenses. Also, as a side issue, they proposed to permit V.E.s who hold an Advanced class license to administer exams up to the General class license level, and, the elimination of RACES station licenses via non-renewal. Morse code and other issues were left for comments.

After reviewing the FCC, ARRL, and NCI proposals, I have come to the conclusion that the ARRL proposal, WITH A MODIFICATION , would be the best route for Amateur Radio licenses into the 21st century.
My MODIFICATION would have only one (5WPM) morse code test. When the International Treaty (ITU S25.5) is repealed, all code testing would cease.

MORSE CODE TESTING METHOD
The morse code testing method should be standardized to a 10 question MULTIPLE CHOICE test (the test method most VE teams use today), one minute of copy can be used if the applicant does not achieve 7 correct answers out of the 10. This testing method is the best for all concerned!

*****I DO NOT SUPPORT THE*****
ARRL'S AMENDED RESTRUCTURING PLAN
REGARDING CHANGES TO THE MORSE CODE TESTING METHOD (NO MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS) AND CHANGES TO THE RULES REGARDING CW TEST MEDICAL WAIVERS.

LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK!
