I invite those seeking answers to why the code testing requirement was dropped to read the FCC's definition of the ham radio service given in the NPRM, as well as the detailed FCC comments to each of the petitions they considered.
They clearly made a case of why test by mode, as CW is a mode; when there are so many other modes. They also made it clear the VEC was free to establish the test topics based on input from the tested community and existing ham operators. So, when the time to revise question pools is announced; be sure to notify the VEC of what you would believe hams should be tested upon.
