Except FCC amateur rules say nothing offensive is allowed to be said

However, certain ham radio operators who were offended that the call
letters W5TIT were said over ham radio
because the last 3 letters are tit would also be offended by the
phrase"bubble-headed booby" being said over ham radio


Ham radio is a dying hobby composed of mostly tightwad old
protestant or jewish white men who's usually can be found
getting sauced on cheap beer at the local VFW or Am Legion
Hall taproom during the daytime and raising crap on 40 or 75
meters when they get home. The average ham is 67 years old
so it will be about 10 years at the most before 75% of them are
taking a well-deserved dirt nap at the local cemetary. Just be sure
to check the obituary listings to see when these old *******s drop
from cancer due to excess smoking or liver disease due to excess
boozing. They you can clean out their ham radio gear for dirt cheap
from their widows who are glad to finally see their deceased hubby's
radio crap go out the door for often next to nothing. Listening to 40
meters during the daytime is like visiting the local senior care rest
home and 75 meters at night is like a huge on the air KKK meeting.
20 meters during the day is full of rich jews with boats on the
Intercostal
Waterway looking for free phone calls from sorry saps who offer them
phone patches. In a word, pathetic! Ham radio. Truly a throwback
hobby if there ever was one that needs to die off faster than
slower.
