- Mostly, I agree. Morse code is an important part of ham radio, but it isn't
- *the* most important part of it. That is why I feel the current code tests
- are obsolete. I support the idea of making it part of the written test. Say,
- the first ten questions. (Maybe even add more regualtions and theory, too, if
- you are a supporter of increased theory tests.) Then, it would be as much of
- a requirement as any of the other modes. Also, not passing all the code
- questions would not disqualify you automatically like it does now.
-
- The specifics need to be worked out, but I think we have the start of a good
- plan. Now, we must decide how to do it, and what we want to include. To keep
- with the ITU treaty, maybe we would need to continue to keep a separate 5wpm
- (or comparablly slow speed) test, but drop it when the treaty changes. This
- would keep us from breaking the treaty anymore than we are now (*sending* is
- also required in the treaty), and cut down on objections.
-
- Anything else we need? I'd be interested in more (civil) input...

- Morse has had 146 years to be innovative. By that argument, we should
- require auto manufacturers to put buggy whip holders on all their cars.
- You never know when it might be innovative to hitch a pair of mules to
- the old heap. :-)
-
- Note, I'm not saying Morse is worthless. It makes a fine repeater IDer,
- and knowing Morse can be *convienent* in that you don't have to write
- down the dits and dahs and look them up in a chart to see who that odd
- signal you just heard belongs to. But it's unlikely that Morse itself

-

-
- Historic preservation is not a basis or purpose of the amateur service.

-

-
- Well an amateur license is a permit to enter a lifelong LEARNING process.
- We don't expect you to translate the Latin Bible into the vulgate before
- allowing you into the language lab. But we do expect you to know enough
- not to strangle yourself with the headset cord. We don't expect you to
- have three Nobel Prizes in astrophysics before we let you look through
- a telescope. But we do expect you to know enough not to shine a flashlight
- in other people's eyes. Aside from demonstrating you know how to avoid
- sticking yourself in the eye with the sharp end of the rubber ducky,
- electrocuting yourself or others, or interfering with critical safety
- services, entrance into the amateur radio learning environment should be
- as open as possible. Tests are otherwise irrelevant. It's hoped that you'll
- expend EFFORT all your life in learning new things by *doing* new things
- (including learning and working CW if that strikes your fancy). That's the
- only relevant test, the one you pass or fail every day of your life. If you
- sit on the bottom end of 20 working CW the rest of your life, you've failed
- regardless of what government tests you may have passed.

- This is a very old rig, one of the first, if not the first, solid state
- 70cm SSB rigs. It came out in time for the early amateur satellites. It's
- not a great radio by today's standards. It does drift, and the front end
- isn't that good either. Still, at $150, or less if you can talk him down,
- it can serve for mode B. I don't think it would be too good for mode J or L,
- but might be usable with a good preamp.

- Hi,

- My wife's sister just married somebody from Norway and they are

-
- Could someone let me know who feasable this is? I have done

- Subject : Re: CW WAIVERS
-
- Hi fellow amateurs and wannabees,
- Having followed this discussion concerning morse code for a while I
- feel it is time to give my two cents worth.
- The Communication Act of 1934 is what all amateur as well as commercial
- radio is based off of throughout the world. It is an international treaty. In
- it's beginning it stated that the airwaves were free and clear and noone had
- a right to restrict anyone from listening to whatever they wanted to. Thomas
- Jefferson would have loved it. Being that we needed to regulate who operated
- where it was agreed to set aside certain frequencies for certain types/modes/
- etc. of operation. Certain assumptions were made about certain frequencies
- that have since been proven wrong. Like 40 meters being a band that you could
- have amateur radio in one region and shortwave broadcast in another region
- and they would not interfere. Anyone try to operate 40 meters after sundown
- and try to compete with Radio Moscow, etc.
- It is my understanding that the existance of amateur radio is based on
- the 1934 treaty. Yes, amateur radio came along before it but any leagle reason
- for amateur radio to exist is tied to the Communications Act of 1934.
- One of the requirement set up was that any amateur radio operator had
- to demonstrait a proficiency in morse code. It is my understanding that it
- does not say how fast you have to copy or send. But being an old Army Security
- Agency fella I know no one really know morse code as a language till they are
- able to copy it above about 10 words/groups per minute. Flame all you want
- but having spent a year at Fort Devens, Mass. trying to learn the code with
- a couple of thousand other soldiers teaches you something about it.
- It is my belief that AT&T, Bell, Commercial Broadcasters, Shortwave
- Broadcaster, etc. would like to do everything they could to get the valuable
- frequency allocations now assigned to amateur radio. Does anyone want to flame
- that one. The less united in a common front the amateur radio community is
- the more likely that we will lose spectrum alocation to other interest.
- Have you noticed now how the Congress of the United States has passed
- legislation making it illegle(sp) to monitor cellular phones. How does that
- fly in the face of the act of 1934 saying the airwave are free and clear for
- anyone who wants to to listen to. You can go on and cite how satilite broadcast
- interest try to get legislation passed to restrict people from monitoring their
- broadcast without paying for it. I am sure people in this news group can cite
- more examples than I can.
- The point really is that if you want to change the spectrum alocation
- of amateur radio you better come to a mutual concensis and not polarize your-
- selves into procode/nocode groups because the commercial interest have the
- money to exploit your devision to their advantage. How many times have we
- heard(sp) it said that there probably won't be any amateur radio by the year ....
- As for me, I really don't operate morse code. I like contesting, DXing,
- ragchewing with DX stations, and a few other things. I think 2 meters is mostly
- a bunch of people telling eachother hi/the weather is such and such/bye. But...
- that is what they like and I don't have to listen to it if I don't want to. I
- can change the frequency. I might be inclined to say morse code gets too much
- spectrum allocation and voice or digital modes(Pactor/RTTY/etc.) doesn't.
- But I would rather the amateur radio community settle there problems within
- their own community than make such a big deal that the F.C.C. or even Congress
- gets in and decides for them. Has anyone seen the Federal Government do anything
- right where money interest were concerned? I haven't.
- If you like to operate CW, great. Anyone who thinks you must be some
- kind of defect had better take a look in the mirror. Same can be said for
- the other modes of operation. I really find it incredible that normally
- intelligent hams would say someone is S & M for wanting to operate morse
- code. Really, get a life! Do you really believe that or are you just trying
- to be a jerk?
- You know, you hear alot of bad operating practices on the airwaves
- nowdays. I think it is about time we as amateur radio operators started
- educating some people as to how to show courtesy and promote amateur radio
- as it is suppose to be. An organization to provide emergency communication
- when needed and to promote international good will. Also, to teach people
- about radio and electronics. Not put someone down because they want to
- work morse code, or DX, or run traffic, or whatever. I sure do miss the
- way hams used to talk about their stations back in the 60's. You used
- to be able to learn alot by just listening. I know, I didn't get my license
- till 1977 but I listened as far back as 1964 or so.
- Well, go ahead and flame away. You got the right. It is called Freedom
- of Speech. But think a minute about how it would be nice to hear something
- more positive and constructive concerning how to improve amateur radio. Also,
- for amateur radio to have a viable future it needs to be able to try new
- modes and schemes and such.
- ...For what it is worth, my two cents worth...

- It can get ugly can't it? Still, there are recognized bandplans.
- Operating casual simplex in the link subband is anti-social even
- though it's not illegal. And putting a link in the recognized
