Going back to past technology, rebuilding and restoring, is SAFE.
Such is a known quantity. It can be explained via many existing
texts. SECURITY. No problems about learning anything new. All
can become "expert" on things made long ago without undue
struggle. Such is already-proven technology...no struggling with
unproven ideas.


Is this why we are bombarded with stories about "ADA", 1950's era RTTY
nets, and a whole plethora of what you did in NON-Amateur radio from the PAST
four decades, Lennie?

You sure haven't offered us anything new!

Old radio is SIMPLE.


So are you. Easy to see through and unlikely to ever be anything else
but...

STABILITY.


Ahhhh...Now THERE is your shortfall.

SERENITY. Self-satisfaction of "accomplishing" what has already
been done.


That would be you!

Safe. Secure. Simple. Stable. Serene. Old ways are best...


Thank God, then, that Amateur Radio hasn't been stagnant, huh, Putzman?
