[TenTec] 600 Meters, anyone?

[Jerry Haigwood]

Jim,
     I remember having a very long and heated discussion about "insensitive
licensing" with Harry Daniels (sp?) the president of the ARRL at that time
at one of the local Illinois hamfests.  We had quite a crowd around us
before we were through.  I was not for "insensitive licensing" and of course
the ARRL President was for it.  We debated all the points for about 20
minutes or so.  I didn't convince him of his misguided ways but at least he
knew my point of view. ;-)

Or, try having full privileges as a General (circa 1966) and have some 
of those privileges taken away by Incentive Licensing.
I did upgrade to Advanced fairly soon but was mainly a CW operator, so 
those precious CW segments at the bottom of the bands were lost to me 
until I upgraded to Extra in 1997 after a 10-year hiatus from the hobby.
