None of that elaborate U.S. subdivision would be possible without
the modern frequency synthesizers ....

Wrong again, kind elderly Sir.. "modern frequency synthesizers" first
appeared in amateur radio equipment in the 80's, a couple of decades
after the imposition of "elaborate U.S. sub-division" in 1968.

Tsk, tsk, crusty old sea salt.

Frequency synthesizers began appearing in many radio services in
the early 1960s. In amateur radio they began with homebuilts since
the offshore manufacturers hadn't gotten around to putting those into
amateur transceivers until the late 70s. :-)

Ohhhhhhhh--many radio services! They weren't at all common in amateur
radio, Leonard.

Now if you are going to make a great big federal case out of this
little thing, then feel free. :-)

Do you mean if he wants to nit-pick over the fact that you were wrong?

You seem to need an argument
subject and want to go many rounds on this? Not for me. Waste
of time for me. I was in the lab and in the field regarding frequency
synthesizers long ago, know their theory and know both their good
things and bad things of their internals.

Super. What were you doing in amateur radio during the years mentioned?

Tsk. But, you DO have to be "judgemental," don't you? :-)

Did you mean "correct"?
