I support the FCC's proposal in full. The commission in keeping the graded system of licenses maintains the incentive to improve ones operating skills and technical skills with the reward of additional privileges. I believe the ARRL proposal was more aimed at getting new members and not improving the service. Morse code should still be on of the steps that an amateur should master. This also helps filter out individuals looking for a license without mastering any skills. Thank you for your work on this proposal and I once again support the FCC proposal fully. Thank you for your time. William A. Yoreo
