Default Time for the _REAL_ Radio Ham to make a stand?

Word will soon get around if children who have been
conned by the various Billies-No_Mates into going
for the M3/CB fools' Licence find that no-one will
speak to them.

Agreed......


Just a point to note, before CB came along people who headed the direction
of Amateur radio were classed as " Billy No Mates". Now it seems this phrase
has been re-directed.
As for no-one speaking to them, you should have put no-one like yourself
would speak to them as there are plenty of welcoming souls on the Amateur
bands who welcome all who are genuine in the Hobby.

That said I do agree, unless supervised, youngsters shouldn't be allowed on
air. But then again who am I to impose my thoughts on people. 6 year old
seems ridiculously young to consider able to manage a radio station whatever
their intellectual level.

Regards,
Graham
