I once studied and studied and studied, and got my code speed
up to 18WPM. Then I took the First Class Radiotelephone test,
passed, and ham radio fell by the wayside. <g>

A couple of fellows around here have been twisting my arms to
take the no-code exam. Just read that the FCC has dropped
code for ALL classes.

Coast Guard was first. Navy has dropped code. Now the FCC.

It's no-code for all classes after Feb.23rd, Chief. DH & I are testing
for General on Feb.27th.

That's what I read on the ARRL website yesterday.

They warned VE's to NOT begin no-code tests before that date.

Looking more and more interesting. <g>
