RADIO CW TEST - Before this goes to far

[Harry Vaught, KT4AE]

I was interested in ham radio as a teenager in the 50's, but a greater 
interest in audio and automobiles dominated and I didn't get my license 
until 1994.

I hope this discussion won't degenerate into the usual insulting 
comments about those of us who didn't get licenses in the old days. I've 
resigned from two other reflectors because the comments became so vile 
that I couldn't imagine remaining a member of those communities.

I got my license under the rules in effect at the time as did everyone 
else.  I feel much the same way about the new rules as many of you do 
about the previous ones but I plead with you to keep the comments civil 
and on the subject of the rules changes themselves and not get personal 
about those who got licenses under different conditions.

Sincerely,

Harry Vaught, KT4AE
Maryville, Tennessee
