Do you consider U.S. amateur radio to be a HOBBY?

I don't think you do. You want enoblement into some kind
of "higher" service to the nation.

Sorry to break your brag bubble lennieboy, but ham radio has already
reached 'ennoblement' into 'higher' service to the nation. Many times in
the past and present, especially with the service that hams provided
during Katrina and Wilma. You just can't be a part of it and that really
gets up your nose.
