2. The joke did not require any research, I have been for
some time now a clock maker and restorer.


You said it was a posting error.

Memory going?

(I notice you haven't posted it yet in alt.horology, by the way.)

3. Nuclear emissions? Remind me of that one. Did I make
a rare mistake?


Try 'Google'.

It could have been a typo I suppose- most of what you emit is unclear
(unclear emissions).

4. dB - defined as the base-10 logarithm of the ratio of
two powers. I have been consistent in my assertion of this. There
has never been any error on my part, save for when I repeated
someone else's figures without checking them.


Yes Gareth.

5. DSP - You sneered (as does a turnip-brained M3/CBer) at my
tentative proposal of "Big K", but were incapable of answering
my challenge to your sneer.


"Tentative" over some extended period- try Google again.

6. The time of owning an 830 did not coincide with the phase in
my life when I experienced a severe loss of self confidence. I explained
the typo in this respect; an intelligent person with the gentlemanly
traditions
of Ham Radio would have taken this on, but someone with the turnip-brain
of an M3/CBer would just carry on sneering regardless.


Oh, the sympathy card. We all know what a sypathetic chap you are.

7. Slope Detection - I was discussing the use of 25kHz channel-spacing,

Xtal
controlled ex-PMR gear to receive NBFM. My assertion was that the wide
bandwidth (remember the Pye hermetically sealed blue boxes?) would result
in no detectable demodulation of an on-channel NBFM signal. Did you
discuss this technically as might be expected from a _REAL_ Radio Ham,
or did you just sneer ignorantly as is to be expected from a

turnip-brained
M3/CBer?


I remember it well- in fact I retuned several of the 'blue boxes' to narrow
the bandwidth. I may still have the drilling pattern somewhere.
In those days slope detect was a common as cat muck on these very radios,
as quick temporary step to get on air before building a FM detector. So it
must have worked.

Gareth, you do get even more ratty when caught out. Why not just crawl away
and lick your wounds. Continue like this and you will end up turning to
drink.
