The subject reactions to distress call yours and mine

He just doesn't get it, Dave.

Or is it that he's just been hearing those little voices for so
long he COULDN'T hear the distress call?

I think you are sick for laughing at the Fact I would try to help
someone in distresss

From you own tale of your experience with trying to learn morse, you'd
be 1) incapable of recognizing that it was an emergency and 2) incapable
of understanding what help was needed.

more of your pack of lies

Nope.

From the archived words of Mark C. Morgan, KB9RQZ.

YOU said you COULDN'T DO IT.

Unless, of course, you're now changing your story and claiming you
CAN learn Morse?

You refuse to acept facts

You refuse to use a spellchecker.

It isn't hard to reconize SoS

It is if you don't know Morse Code.

Once reconized the action needed is clear, For me of course the
procedure is different I would record the signal for play back later.
Then I try ruing it though a computer decode, which should recover much
of the signal. or if not I send using the PC a sginal reequesting more
data...(SNIP)

If you can't copy code without the computer, how are you going to
send it?

I run it through until I have or find I can't read it with a
machine. If i can't read it then I start calling people who can read
the signal play it for them let them decode it and/or get them on the
Air to render more assistance than I can

And by the time this has all transpired and you've spent a couple
hours banging out your dreck in RRAP due to your frustrations at not
knowing if it was a distress signal or Dave and I talking about you,
the ship has gone down with loss of life. Too bad, too...There was a
tanker only 10 miles away that could have diverted and assisted...

So your satement "From you own tale of your experience with trying to
learn morse, you'd be 1) incapable of recognizing that it was an
emergency and 2) incapable of understanding what help was needed.", Is
a bald faced lie,and if you had any brains you'd know that.

He does have the brains. He very aptly pointed out that you have
not learned Morse Code and as a consequence can not respond in a prompt
and meaningful manner.

I think your expounding at length on my HF operations from any DX spot
on the earth would make a good subject for a joke.


Just comenting on your own words

"Commenting", Mark. You aren't commenting on my words. You know
nothing of DXing and precious little of my operations on 6m or any other
band.


I am comenting on your words

Indeed all I have is your words

and YOUR words make you look guilty

Okay, Mark, I'll play your game. On which particular words of mine are
you commenting?

the word you refuse to say, the answer to the question of when you
worked those out of band hams did you know they were out of band or
not. Not were you responible to know or any other evasion.

Why, Mark, is that an "evasion"...?!?!

It remains the point. He wasn't required to know.

but then you don't respoibility for your actions

I don't repoibility?

I take full responsibility for my actions. My conscience is clear.
I still think you're a twit.


Indeed I am sure you feel no guilt at helping other break the law

I helped no others break any law unless you take the very peculiar and
totally incorrect view that by merely showing up on a band, I enticed
someone to break his country's regs. Others have attempted to correct
your mistaken perception, but you've simply ignored them.

becuase you and all of them dance around the central quetion what did
you know and when did you know it

There's not dancing.

Just you trying to shift the dance floor while the music's still
playing.

If You only learned afterward they were out of band then Find I agree
you were in the clear. If you knew before or during then it is another
matter

you dance and dance avoiding this question

In either case, he's "in the clear".

Dave had NO OBLIGATION to know who was in or out of the bands per
THIER administration's requiremments.

None under US law...None under Tanzanian law...None under
International law.

Which means YOU haven't got a leg to stand on.

Have a nice day.
