Translation: Len wants us to shut up. Next step is him calling us
"feldwebels"

I don't know what a "feldwebel" is, but it sounds like a "weeble".

Feldwebels wobble but they don't fall down?

It's German for the military rank of "corporal". Which is the rank a
certain mid-20th century German chancellor held in the Wehrmacht in
WW1.

Hey, let's all go to Google and RELIVE the PAST diss-cushions in
here! What fun! :-)

Len doesn't exactly show good manners or professional behavior when
confronted by a differing opinion or information that proves him to be
mistaken.

For more of the same, Google that word with him as author.

Google EVERYTHING. Relive the past over and over and over and
over and over again.

Maybe by the zillionth time the walking wounded might score a hit.

[poor babies]

Of course, Len has no amateur radio experience, but he wants to
pontificate to us about How It Should Be in amateur radio.

But when you ask him how to fight the BPL

menace

he has no new ideas at all.

Lots of criticism of others on this point but no new ideas.

There ya go, Jimmie! Jimmie = ruler on what is "new idea!"

[poor baby...]


Most of all, note that Len tells us to

"Leave the space business stuff to the industry experts"

Shouldn't we do the same with BPL?

nope.

but...but Mike, we're just amateurs! With "vacuum tube transmitters"!
Len has told us many, many times how we're nowhere near "state of the
art",

Oh dear... I'm confused... I like both SOA equipment *and* tube radios.

It's all good!

how we live by "standards of the 1930s",

Whatever that is.

OOK CW is a REQUIREMENT of a "real" ham. :-)

The NTS is the "backbone" of modern transcontinental messaging.

"CW gets through when nothing else will!" :-)

All "real" hams LOVE the League. They MUST!


how we're not really
involved in emergency work,

hmm, I am. Plus whatever public service work that comes my way.

That's only valid when you have a "real" ham license! :-)

nor technical advancement, etc., etc.,
etc. He's also been consistently critical of ARRL, even to the point
of accusing them of fraud (with absolutely no evidence).

Yeah, I've read that. There are always some people that hate the big
dog in any kennel.

Do you lead a dog's life? [ arf? ] :-)


Also seems to think that I am somehow responsible for the posts of
others....

Now he seems to think we should know how to defeat BPL - even though
he doesn't.

Odd. Very odd.

High expectations for the 1930's standards people, eh?

Poor Jimmie, all stressed out by the slightest negative comment.

Retreats to Google to relive the past, hoping to snarl again and "win."

:-)
