The intent of this video is to drive the point home about the US Ham Licensing process where a person with no electronics experience and never held a license that in the course of 45 minutes is suddenly an Amateur Extra. Documented in a video from a person jumping up and down stating that they are now an Extra depicts how low this hobby has sunk!

The Extra Class license used to be a recognition of experience, knowledge and gravitas. Now it has been reduced to a common hooker level.
