Hi Frank,

maybe it is not as bad as you think. All ex-M3s I know advanced _because_ 
it is fun to learn (believe it or not). The learning is the incentive, not 
the hurdle. You can ask any question you want, and always get an honest 
answer. For example, if you wonder why/how a yagi works, just ask. Try 
that with a CEPT-1 call.

Besides: there are always three incentives left: the pride of having 
achieved the next step, and for CEPT-1: the privileges of supervision and 
operating abroad. 

If you are afraid of becoming a cynic, I suggest you get involved in the 
Foundation Licence course of your local club.
