Ironic. Back in the day you paid $5 for a CB license (go farther back and they were $20), and now, a ham license will cost you $35. What did Congress have in mind when they started charging $$$ for a ham license? was it to try to discourage new additions to the existing ranks of ham radio, hoping it (ham radio) dissipate the number of hams on the airwaves, allowing them to make a case for selling blocks of frequencies where activity had declined? Or maybe they figured that having a GMRS or ham license should cost the same? I'd be happy paying $35 if they pass the bill that was proposed this week, diluting an HOA's power over any ham that wants an outdoor antenna.
