Are you telling me that if US Amateurs didn't setup an "amateur emmcom" then no-one would get a licence ? When was that introduced ? I worked US amateurs long before this was thought of.
Anyway, even if it is the case, why should it be inflicted on the rest of the amateur community? This reminds me of the hoo-ha when the CB'ers started over here in the 70's, they setup an emergency group (can't remember what it was called now), no-one asked them to do so & it was quite unnecessary, as far as I know it was never used & died out when the CB'ers faded into oblivion,but it made them feel important & wanted,poor things, flying around on their motorbikes or cars with a sign on.
