Well, how many different ways do you want to be able to exchange signal
reports and WX, or God forbid, information bulletins? How many
positions do you want on the old MODE switch? The point is, try
exchanging something useful or interesting rather than worrying about
how the information is exchanged. You aren't going to get an
interested audience for your 'information bulletins,' either, because
you have nothing useful to convey, so give it up. You are just going
to make enemies and take up space like K1MAN. Originally you planned
to do your broadcast on 10 meters at 9 PM. At that time of night, no
one beyond about 10 miles is going to hear you. That, right there,
demonstrates your knowledge of radio and propagation. Only a freaking
CBer would consider doing a 10 M broadcast at 9 PM. As for SSTV,
after you exchange a few poor quality pics of the OM, the shack, or
maybe the XYL's butt, what more do you do with it? You say that hams
should work to ADVANCE radio communications? WTF What is the next
step? DXing space aliens? ROTFLMAO
Well, I answer you first, then I'll answer your girlfriend who emailed me.
The POINT of this post is simple, Amateur radio is dying, for really two
simple reasons The first is amateur radio is falling behind to the
commercials.
You have yet to provide any proof that amateur radio is dying. You keep
saying it but that is hardly proof.
While amateur's get off on Slow Scan TV; Commercial services are able to
stream live audio and video over a short band space due to digital
compression. While Amateur's are fornicating themselves over 300 and 1200
baud, Commercial service with WiFi are able to go 1000 times faster,
ranging from 1Mbaud to 11.5Mbaud on the 2.4GHz band. And I could go on and
on. "You aren't going to get an interested audience for your 'information
bulletins,' either, because you have nothing useful to convey, so give it
up." That's Your Opinion I believe in the idea that a person should get
the information and disseminate it themselves. Unlike you who I believe
has this idea that this is a dictatorship and some moron and his little
buddies on a newsgroup, on the internet speaks for all the amateur radio
community. Secondly, you've never hear my broadcast thus, you assume that
the information bulletin is useless. Finally on that, unlike K1MAN who
broadcast 24/7 I'm only transmitting for one hour once a week, a far cry
from what K1MAN is doing. and Unlike K1MAN I use a frequency that isn't in
use and ask three times "if the frequency is in use" So don't ****ing
compare me to him. That's why I orginally had it on 10 meters so not to
cause interference, unlike you who would probably transmit on top of
people.
The 10 meter band was an awful choice. When it's dead, no one can hear you.
When it's open, you can interfere worldwide with a few watts of power.
Since one can often only hear one side of a conversation on that band, you
can interfer without knowing it.
I do have some curiously something you and your little friends can't
grasp. Which bring me to the second reason amateur radio is dying. It's
little toadies like you who fear new things or something that is legal
under the law and either find the frequency they are running and key up
top of them, or better yet go crying to the FCC so they can supress that
stations free speech simple because you don't like what they are doing.
What free speech has the FCC suppressed???
Todd,
I am a friend of Bathrooman. I have read many of your posts and it is
quite clear to me that you don't know what the **** you are talking
about. You don't know dick about amateur radio, and you can't even
write a sentence that makes any sense whatsoever. Why don't you just
go back to your shack and try to work some ham at 5 WPM in the novice
band. If that is too fast for you, slow it down to 2 WPM and see if
you can copy that.

Now I have a question you and this little friend of yours here, are you
both real amateurs or amatuer radio operator wantabe's who sit on amateur
newsgroup and think your important.
