No, "commander" buzziebaby, I didn't do that...I WORKED IN
that station and learned how from on-the-job instruction,
manuals, texts, and a bunch of experts on HF transmitters.
From the beginning of February 1953 to late January 1956.
I didn't have a lot of choice in that even if I was a
voluntary enlistee (ASN RA16408336). If you don't believe
me, just check with Gene Rosenbaum, N2JTV. Gene was in the
the same outfit, worked at the same station, but on another
of the four operating teams at ADA. I worked up to be an
operating team leader until the microwave radio relay
equipment arrived...and I became lead NCO at the ADA
microwave installation. BTASE.

Sure you did lennieboy, sure. Bet you couldn't even turn the transmitter
on without help.

If you are ****ed or something, I'd suggest seeking medical
help for your rampant resentment. Personally, I don't give
a snit how jealous you are.

I have a ham license. Do you?

That's Mighty Macho Morsemen, eedjut. Get it RIGHT.

Anony-mousie buzziebaby, I've seen, operated HF stuff
along with VHF, UHF, and microwave stuff IN the military
and know damn well that the vast majority of military
communications of half a century ago was NOT by any
magic of morsemanship.

Sure you did lennieboy, sure. What do I have to be jealous of you? I
have a ham license. Something you can't do even with all these imaginary
skills you claim.
