Hmmm - that title sounds a bit like the first Twilight Zone episode!


Since the new moderated group was created (whose mission was to
improve communication and raise the bar on decency over the Policy
group), everyone seems to have disappeared. The moderated group is
virtually dead, containing primarily bulletins from Amateur groups
around the world and the odd post hare and there....and the Policy
group has degenerated into a "Mark vs the World" quagmire - quite
unfortunately for Mark.


With the exception of Dave Heil, who pops up from behind the ramparts
here occasionally to take a well placed shot at his old nemesis Mr.
Wiseman, no one seems to be left from the old crowd who regularly
discoursed in this group. Even N2EY's regular "ARS Numbers" posts
seem to have vanished into oblivion.


Just wondering - what's up with Len, Mike,Dave, Jim, Brian, Steve,
Dee, Kim, and the rest of the old regulars on the group? Hope all is
well!

I'm here. I'm not interested in .moderated.


I do post some on-topic stuff, but no one wants to discuss it. For
example, the ARRL gets it's own MARS call:


Honestly more a RRAM topic than RRAP after why does the ARRL NEED a
Mars Call


Good question. Do you think they are just callsign collecting, or do
you think they knowingly placed themselves into DoD service?


honestly callsign collecting is my opinion

after all just who is going to put in the time required to earn that
Maras Call? Hiram Maxim back from the grave?


Welp, they have a paid operator. In addition to the training, will he
not send the w1aw morse practice 12 hours each month so he can meet
the minimum input for MARS?
