Hi Colin
I agree with you. I don't really see any negatives with these proposals at all provided the license structure is maintained and others have corrected my earlier incorrect view on that.
A major challenge is going to be updating the foundation license syllabus and exam to reflect the changes without making the qualification too difficult to attain.
I don't agree with the previous poster's worry about "dumbing down" to a CB type class license. The ACMA is bound by ITU rules to ensure that the international regulations for the amateur radio service are adhered to.
