Perhaps because some who hold lesser licenses are proud of the fact that they got their Advanced license when the Advanced test was more difficult than even the Extra was. Or perhaps they'd like to pass the 20WPM before getting the give-away Extra of today, but lack the time. Could be any number of things. Or maybe they don't want to be associated with some perceived arrogance of having an Extra ticket?
Amen Todd. I'm an Advanced and I feel no less than any of the 5 wpm Extras of today for damned sure. Besides, I can't remember the last time I even operated in the Advanced sub-band on any band or mode. I'll probably upgrade one day, however my work is enough for me right now, trying to keep up with everything I need to do with it. Hpe to see you on 75 soon Todd! 73 Brian ______________________________________________________________ AMRadio mailing list List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Partner Website: http://www.amfone.net Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:[email protected]
