I believe I've pointed that out each time you or Len has used the
"World's Greatest DXer" tag as a reference to me. Yet both of you
continue to make the same mistake over and over. Is it because neither
of you is capable of learning or because it is an attempt to take a
cheap shot at me?

Oh, gee. You sure don't mind dealing in cheap shots until one comes
your way.

Toughen up a little, whydoncha?

"Toughen up"...?!?!

You mean "Get used to our lying because we haven't even started
yet"...?!?!

I don't believe either of you is very well known in DXing.

Sorry, but it was not a "career goal" of mine.

Whew! Sure glad to hear that. Because based upon what we HAVE
seen of your "DXing" skills, you, the Little Woman and the kids would
be homeless and hungry.

I'm sorry. That is incorrect. "William", "Brian" or "liar" would have
been an acceptable response. Thanks for playing.

Oh, my! I think you just called me a liar.

Why not? You've lied repeatedly. You ARE a liar.

Get in line, I don't think Steve's done yet. And bring your lunch.

Stop lying, I'll stop calling you a liar.

It really is THAT simple.

My accusations? The accusation where I corrected your use of the term
"World's Greatest DXer"? The accusation where I've told you that I'm
not responsible for where foreign hams operate, only for where I
operate? Maybe it was the accusation that because you continue to tell
deliberate untruths, that you're a liar.

I educated you with respect to operating amateur radio in a location
without a government.

YOU have not educated ANYone, Brain.

YOU have yet to show where YOU know what the laws are. Indeed,
there's not one shred of evidence that you've ever done the things you
claim you have.

Later you say I didn't.

Because you haven't.

Isn't your position
that I should be concerned enough to check these things?

If one had an obvious Novice callsign, such as "WNx...," you might
have to wonder. Often people volunteer what their amateur "status"
is, such as "I'm a Novice." That is another decent clue. Or, you
might be told that they are operating out of band.

The real problem occurs when you know they are out of band, but just
keep right on collecting those greenstamps.

The FCC has not issued "Novice" callsigns since 1976. There are
quite a few folks with Extra Class and Advenced Class licenses with WN
prefixes.

There are also several 1x2's with General and Advanced Class
licenses on the books as of this date.

Stop while you are ahead, Brain.
