Well once upon a time you had to have a license and display it on your crystal controlled <5W AM 11m rig so no bets on the "Friendly Candy Co." Robert ad0qo 1396

Seriously, I read somewhere that a large percentage of hams who receive OO Notices are Extras ... kind of makes one wonder if being an Extra gave them a bigger hat size ? BTW, I;ve never subscribed to that mantra that "if I had to pass this or that test; then everyone else should, too". It's whatever the FCC deems necessary to grant a license to the operator.

I, too, am an extra-lite. I was just reaching 20 wpm when the
requirement vanished. I once asked a competent social psychologist
(not a ham) whether someone who had the diligence to learn the code
would be less a jerk (read more profane description) than one who
did not have to learn code. His response was 52% vs. 48%, less a
jerk. read "not much". my 2cents. Marcus, KM5EH On 10/7/2015 9:41 AM,
