I plan on trying to take my Tech. test this Sept.I hope.
I have been diagnosed with the early stages of Parkinsons and was wondering what the rules say about someone who wants to upgrade but cant send code because of a medical reason.thanks for any help you can provide.
 

CodeTest NO MORE MEDICAL WAVIORS

Hello Sarge:
Their are no longer any medical waviors,if you can tap out with your fingers or send very slow,but copy 5 wpm you can pass the test. SEE R/R PART 97 RULES--97.509-k, In all circomstances the Volunter Examing team will and must accomidate you and give you a special cw exam :wink:

Another reason to change the rules on the code or no code question.
SARGE good luck on getting your ticket and I expect to be saying very soon WELCOME to the bands.
