"Ham Radio" is for amateurs. That's why it's called
Amateur Radio.

Airy Bean, like most folks on this NG, is a radio_AMATEUR.
Unlike most folks on this NG he has little of any
consequence to help or assist other (or prospective) radio
amateurs.

.......which goes against the true spirit that has taken
amateur radio to it's present position.

If the pioneers in the 1920s who did the first amateur
transmissions had adopted the same opinions and stand-points
as Gareth, we'd have got nowhere.

Long may he sit and rule his own empire. Thankfully that
empire ends at his front door except for his publicity machine
that is the internet.
