Kay As I remember, the FCC said no, no, no, a thousands times no to going over 5 wpm. Apparently 5 wpm does not support a physician waiver (why, I don't know). I recall that there were lots of FCC staff people who were upset with our move to tighten up the waiver standards. 5 wpm was a way to side step the issue all together. Am I wrong? I've telling lots of folks that the chances of going above 5 wpm are somewhere between zero and none (because of what I remember before). 73/Greg W7OZ PS I assume you are a member...I can't tell from our member look up file.
