But, is that what the ARRL wants to do? Here's an excerpt from a
fictional story in QST, "Wally and Mike: The Flood"
"I wanted to get my ham license when I was in high school but I
didn't like morse code."
"You can get a Technician license and use the repeater without
knowing code."
"No code! That's great. Who needs it anyway, I just want to use
voice."
That's gonna generate a bunch of new contesters!
