Commandeer Buzzard:

Still in training to be a "master of the personal attack", huh? Puzzled
why it inspires disgust rather that respect?

My post is a statement of fact--no attack, it would only feel like that
to someone who had some personal interests in mind...

Well, my 7 yr. old lass made five QSO's today during Kid's Day, two
of them were CW contacts. So QSL cards go out today for the
"young'un" who managed to practice enough over the past few weeks to
pound out my call, her name, favorite color, age, QTH and wrap it up
with a not-too-shabby 73. (I helped w/her copy tho.)

I couldn't have asked for a better Father's Day gift.

Wonder why we aren't supprised that top-posting johnnyboy would find a
way to attempt to discredit a ham with his 7 year old enjoying radio.
Johnnyboy, with the way you seem to hate ham radio and those who
participate, why don't you just turn in your license and go back to
the 'freeband'?
