*7* years, Steve. January 19, 2000. ;-)

Oh, my, Jimmie Noserve has made that a "holiday" event? :-)

Like I said...he's gonna be a no-show.

Well, maybe. And maybe not. Time will tell.

So will William, an arrow, and an apple...

Most liars like him usually are.

If he does what he said he'd do back then,
he wouldn't be a liar or a no-show, right? :-)

sigh.

Why the sigh? Do you really *want* Len to get
a license?

HAAAAAARRRRR!!!

Tsk, that social misfit doesn't want ANYTHING
pleasureable to anyone who has disagreed with him. :-)

Even if Len does someday get a license, he
will still be a newcomer to amateur radio. A
neophyte, a tyro, newbie, novice, etc.

Oh, my, are YOU going to show me how to work a radio?

Something beyond 1930s state of the art, I hope.

How many KiloWatt rigs has Jimmie Noserve ever
tuned?

Has Jimmie Noserve ever tuned up anything beyond
the 23 cm amateur band frequency? Anything below
550 KHz?

Has Sister Nun of the Above ever sat in the right
seat and knuckle-spanked a pilot talking on a
civil airways radio? On a private sailboat?
On land during a heavy rainstorm? On land in
the desert?

How much broadcasting experience has Miccolo
Tesla got? AM, FM, or TV?

Then it
will be up to us to Elmer him, both by advice and
example.

Will you "stick by me" as good as Borden's "Elmer
white glue?"

Will you be part of the firing squad to "discipline"
the slightest lapse of FORMAL PROTOCOL in amateur
radio operation? Or is simple beheading your thing?

Would I receive the "rack" or "quartering" if there
is no desire EVER to use OOK CW morse?

For example, simply getting the license is the
first step.

CONGRATULATIONS on some (finally) clear thinking!

What rig should he buy for CASH?

How about an Icom IC-7800? Yaesu FT-2000D?
IC-756PROIII? FT-DX9000? Kenwood TS-2000?
Yaesu FT DX 9000MP?

What antenna?

How about a tower-mounted rotatable Log-Periodic?

On a U S Tower HDX-5106MDPL?

A Bencher Inc. "Skyhawk 3X10"? A Butternut HF9V?

Power supply?

Will the Department of Water and Power of the city
of Los Angeles be sufficient? :-)

Note: The DWP can be considered as "plug [in]
and play..." as a power supply. :-)

Accessories?

Absolutely MUST HAVE one of those Owl Figures!

Don't forget the wallet-encased SHIELD with the
callsign on it!

Should he attempt to build any of it?

NEVER! Neophytes, Novices, etc., should NEVER
try to build anything more complicated than
building an Elecraft KIT...

What about mobile operation?

What about it? The Rolls-Royce back seat is very
comfortable. Heck you can even beg for some Grey
Poupon from a Rolls that pulls up alongside...

CC&Rs?

Gasp! I have to get one of those?!? I don't
have any! HORRORS!

RFI?

I will wave to Ed Hare whenever he is in the
neighborhood...no problem.

I doubt if the full shield room I might use would
exhibit any stray RF radiation...

Operating procedures?

ABSOLUTELY! By-the-Book Letter-Perfect as it was
in the 1930s so shall it be today!!!

Commit just ONE slight infraction and I would be
EXCOMMUNICATED!!! Stripped of all licenses and
radios by Riley H. himself!!!

Awards?

Gots to get lots of those...make a "show wall" so
that friends and neighbors can come over to gush
with awe about them!!! Get spotlights on each one!

Contests?

Which NCAA championship? Will the World Cup in
International Football do? Do you require winning
BOTH Summer and Winter Olympics?

Vanity call?

*VANITY* CALL?!?!? Oh, my...

Can't use "N2EY" or "K4YZ" or "K8MN"...those VANITY
calls are TAKEN!!!

Have to go out to a furniture store to get the RIGHT
VANITY!

Think about it.

Wow! So MUCH to think about! Do you possibly think
ANYONE could approach your Expertise and Brillian Mind
about AMATEURISM in radio?!? Nobody can, ya know...you
keep laying it onto us so much...

37s,
LA
