Default It's amazing what people will say to try to justify dumbing down Amateur Radio.

If that's true, it's certainly a change from half a
century ago when we HF hams observed the VHF/UHF
hams revolutionizing amateur radio with their
technical expertise.

Uhhhhhhhh...Cecil...??!?!

Did you actually make that up, or just quote someone else
who is
equally ill informed?

Most of the people who were "moving forward" half a century
ago
were ALSO folks who were active on and well known in HF
circles...

Unless, of course, you're now going to take Lennie's spin
and tell
us that any / everything reported in QST, CQ, etc, was only
"self-serviing rhetoric"...?!?!

Try again.

Anyone that puts out an argument to keep the code requirement gets
teased by Cecil. He loves to throw out some goof-ball counter
reply to try to be-little the original argument.

Pot, meet kettle.


No. All my arguments are good sound arguments.

Oh PuhlEEEZE!!! Spelling Canada with a "K" is a good sound argument?
Calling me a "lazy ass" is a good sound argument? Claiming I get a
handout is a good sound argument?

You have NEVER put out ANY kind of argument at all!!! Why don't you
try to cite some source that back up any of your "good sound
arguments".

Free hint: Hurling insults and innuendo does NOT a "good sound
argument" make.

Hope this helps.


I'm sorry Opus, but I refuse to lie. You did get a hand-out, and
you're Lazy because you refuse to learn CW to 20wpm, and too lazy to
to use it.


"Slow Code" does not know what code speed "Opus" can do. He simply
*assumes*.

Note that we do not know "Slow Code's" code speed, either.

You don't want to be a good capable communicator in every way. That's
just how it is. I'm sorry if the truth seems like an insult. You're
right about one thing, I spelled Kanada wrong, I meant to type
KKKanaduh. Eh.


Xenophobic attack rather than reasoned argument.

Tell me right now what "handout" I have received. Back up your "good
sound arguments" or forever be a PROVEN liar!

You have lied and have been caught. You can't wiggle out of it.

Once again..you are a proven liar and a fool.

You are a disgrace to the amateur radio community.


Opus, you are making a simple but common logical mistake: You are
taking "Slow Code" seriously.



He's upset because he knows CW helps makes a real communicator, and he
can't cut it. That's OK, I encouraged him to try to learn CW while I could
before I ended up in the killfile.
