the fcc has proposed to allow volunteer  examiner  coordinators
to  maintain  the  question pools used for amateur exams.  this
maintenance is presently done by the fcc.  if this proposal  is
adopted,  vecs  would  be  required  to maintain question pools
containing at least ten times the number of questions  actually

as well as the formulas used to create exams.  comments may  be
filed  on  this proposal until august 30, 1985.  formal comment
requires the filing of an  original  and  five  copies  to  the
