Hi

Just struck me about morse for licensing.
For a Class A licence to TX below 30Mhz you need to be able to send CW, 12wpm 
or UK M5 licence 5wpm.
Yet if you obtain a Class B licence to TX above 30Mhz you don't need to take a 
morse test, yet you can send and receive using a computer, silly or what ?.
It sort of makes a mockery out of the whole licensing system. I have no idea 
what the licensing in the US is, I can only go by UK regs.
