for the non-UK people here, 'Class B' was a no-code license which let you
transmit on 6m and above, all modes. But in the great reshuffle of
licenses about 6 years ago, it bacame a 'Full' license (basically the
code requirement was removed)...
That's very strange. The old US Technician license (5 wpm code)
limited operation to 2 Meters and *down* (i.e. VHF/UHF). It seems
odd to restrict no-code to HF--unless by "above" you mean up in
frequency, not wavelength.
