This is what p**s me off with OUR HOBBY that some think they are better than
the rest just because they can do morse. Some of us try and cannot for
various reasons but we are no less happy and want to improve are skills
given time. To suggest a Superior Licence shows the arrogance of the "G"
call signers (well one at least).
Bringing elitism into OUR HOBBY stinks. Yes morse is an art but it is one of
many that this HOBBY has to offer. Next we will have a special license for
constructors or computer users.
Stop this stupidity before it gets to the RSGB Committee's!
IMO anyway :-((((
