Gee,
   I don't want that camel's nose in my tent!  The best thing about ham 
radio is the lack of need for
infrastructure and that the hams have always purchased or built their own 
equipment thus not being
dependent on Federal funds. We provide amateur radio classes and do the 
examinations at no cost to
the government.  When we start depending of the Fed for equipment they will 
begin specifying the
equipment and come up with specifications as we have seen for new 60 meter 
band.
