Ed,

EV>I think I remember reading years ago that the Commission can ask a Ham to
EV>take a Test if The F.C.C. decides that the Ham should take the test.

  They can re-administer an examination, if a session is audited.

EV> EV>But whats a LID to do?

EV> DS>   Act as a cover on a container (hi hi).

EV>Thats a Lid or a lid, a LID has a different definition according to T.O.M.

  Same word, though. <G>

EV>I never met T.O.M. but I've heard stories about Him and the Tools He uses
EV>on LIDs.

  He was long dead before you and I came along. 

  BTW, I'll get to meet Riley Hollingsworth, K4ZDH, at the Duke City
Hamfest in September...he's the banquet keynote speaker.

EV>I've always kept at least 5 KC/S away from the edge of any Band I've operate
EV>And since the change to the Rules, I've stayed at least 5 KC/S away from the
EV>edge of any SUB-Band I've operated.

  With no RF gear (no antennas at my place), I just fire up the desired
software, and I'm on the air. Weather has kept me QRT quite a bit
lately, though.

EV>Somewhere I saw something about Microsoft having a UPdate for XP.
EV>Have You seen anything about that?

  I think you're mistaken. Support and security updates for XP ended
long ago. But, if you want them, you'll have to PAY BIG BUCKS.
