I've written the ARRL a number of times about this issue. It's high
time they realized the technical knowledge level of the ham population
has
has greatly deteriated over what it used to be. ( and no offense is
meant
to anyone )

It would be a poor excuse to offer some ham ( especially a fairly new
one )
who has gone through this "it's April Fool".

The ARRL, and others, should realize exactly the point made by Scott,
and
stop this nonsense.
