Take my advice, give up on HF too. It's a dying allocation with limited
usefulness and only accessible by "elite" hams who can pass a test best left
to dinosaurs.


It's attitudes like that which endanger the ENTIRE amateur radio
service, not just HF allocations.

Hello,

in contrary, exactly your "elitist" CW attitude arm in arm
with your 88-year old father is holding back the needed
young blood from our hobby. One should think that now with
nearly all the world abandoning that antique mode requisite
you would be glad for any help in this deadly BPL matter,
but no, name calling again as ever.
This is the same in Germany, sadly to say, so kiss goodbye,
shortwave AR, hello "Hinternet" (TM by ARRL)...
