This all seems odd to me.
I had no problem getting admitted, he works with several hams regarding
his antenna systems, so it's not about hams.
I think he has some great research using single, dual and quad phased
Flag or Delta antennas. There's also info on building a circuit for
adjustable phasing of two antennas.
So get another email address and just say you have an interest in
improving your AM radio reception.

But, yet, I got turned down again, even though I fully complied with his
directions. The problem is that I politely added my opinion that his
methodology for rejecting his group's applicants had a flaw in my case. (He
had earlier explained some of it to me in a thoughtful and candid private
email.) Obviously, I should have kept my opinion to myself. I live and
learn.

He responded to me with a curt one-line private email saying that the flaw
was in _my logic_. From that, coupled with his third rejection two minutes
later, I conclude that the mere mention of anything negative is an instant
deal-breaker. He had earlier described trouble he'd had in his group with
people he termed "bad boys." It's much easier to be dubbed one of his "bad
boys" than I would have guessed. Wow!

Yes, I could try to trick him with another email address; however, since I'm
not welcome at his front door, why risk the humiliation if he catches me
prying open a back window? I'm already somewhat annoyed at myself for this
missed opportunity. Why make it worse?

OK, so the final score is Dallas 3, Me 0. Game over. *sigh*


Ya shoulda just kept your mouth shut rather than call him out on his "flaw"
telling him you you don't respect him and just have to have the last word.
His not allowing members posts should have given you a clue he is ultra
anal. The outcome was predictable. Ya shoulda kept your mouth shut.

Oh yeah, I got in too.
