Just for starters. Actually I've lost track of how many different names
Len
has
made up for me. Seems he just can't bring himself to call me "Jim" or
"N2EY",
even though I call him "Len" or "Mr. Anderson".

I can call you Jim. Doesn't matter because you don't like my message.

But Len and Biran

oops - make that "Brian".

get you to call them "Putz", "Loser", "Brain" and
"PuppetBoy", just for starters. Which is probably their entire game,
really.

Ahem, that's "Brian." And we don't "get him to call us" anything.
Steve does so on the free volition of any number of his various
personalities.

Oh, I have no "various personalities", Brian.

You must.

Just K4YZ. Not any one of several different screen names or
nomme-de-guerre, such as yourself, Brian.

Who is K4CAP?

Still me. Or was.

K4CAP is just an FCC assigned call sign. It was mine briefly. Until
May
of 2005 it can be mine again without waiting 2 years.

And if someone goes to qrz.com and enters "k4cap" they are redirected to
"k4yz". No problem.

It wasn't an alias for me. I still sign my posts "Steve". The
combination of letters and number on FCC Form 660 does not dictate who I am.

The other is because last month Brain stated others "can't help
yourself, you have to respond...".

Prove him wrong.

IOW, drop the rope. Prove that Brian and Len need you more than you need them.

Please do. It'll be a first.

Guess they have a hard time with objectivity, not that we had any
doubts.

Of course. So why play their game?

I can be Quiteobjective. Try me with some rational discourse.

More like "Quiteobjectionable", Brian.

Now see, there you go, feeding the game.

And try the "rational discourse" yourself. Start with some
validation
of
your "Unlicensed services play a major role in emergency comms" assertion.

Steve, K4YZ

I was talking to Jim.

Sorry, Brian. You posted in a public, unmoderated forum.

Your posts are open fare.

The funny part is that I only saw Brian's post when you quoted it. And the idea
that a newsgroup post is directed to just one person and all others should keep
out is hilarious.

Sorry, Steve, but you you've blown it in the rational discourse
department. Try it with someone else.

Sorry, Brian, you've not proven a thing.

You still have unanswered questions vis-a-vis Amateur Radio other there.

We're still waiting and wondering...Will you ever fess up, or was your
admission of never getting DXCC approval for your "T5" operation the only
acknowledgement we'll ever see that your claims are bogus?

What bogus claims, Steve?

Consider this scenario:

Suppose there was a military radio setup in /T5 that could do HF. (I'm sure Len
can write a long missive full of nomenclature and other irrelevancies detailing
what would be in use and how the military doesn't use Morse Code, etc.) Let's
nomenclature this hypothetical HF radio set as "UP/URS-2"

And suppose said radio setup covers 10 meter SSB. (Even a civilian like me
knows that most post WW2 military HF gear covers at least 3-30 MHz).

So Mr. Burke finds himself at or near said radio setup. Of course the main
point-to-point military radio traffic nowadays goes by satellite, with HF as
backup, right? So the UP/URS-2 sits idle most of the time. The comms folks
check it out once in a while just to be sure it works.

Mr. Burke sees all this and asks "Sarge" if he can use it on the ham bands.
"Sarge" says "yeah, sure, lemme make sure the autotuner works up that high". Of
course it does, so T5/N0IMD is on the air and makes a few 10 meter SSB
contacts. Maybe in due course a few QSLs are exchanged with hams in places like
the Ukraine and Lebanon.

No paperwork is ever sent to ARRL - DXCC accreditation is not considered. Only
a few contacts are made and the "mainstream DX community" never hears of the
operation.

All of the above fits with the claims Mr. Burke has made here. Maybe it happned
pretty close to the way I described, maybe not. He won't tell us the details
anyway, so why worry about it?

73 de Jim, N2EY
