What is any of this to you, Leonard?
Colonel Klunk, you have NO authority to demand any such answer.
When was a demand issued, Leonora?
You are not Mike Coslo...to whom my remarks were aimed.
Why do you attempt to answer for another?
You must have forgotten how usenet works, kindly old gent. Perhaps
you'll want to engage in an e-mail exchange directly with Mike if it
bothers you when others comment on what you've written in this very
public place.
Do you have multiple personalities? Or is your psychosis a mild one
of simple hatred for anyone pointing out that you never did any
glorious government radio pioneering in the 1980s.
You've called a number of people crazy over the past week or so. You
know what they say about one who believes that a number of others are
insane?
You aren't involved in amateur radio in any way.
Not required.
You aren't a ham.
The FDA hasn't been around to stamp my beef. Why do you think
you can beef so much without such inspection?

Anderson: "Will I take a license exam? Probably. I'm a year from
retirement and it's only taken me two decades to achieve 3 WPM...
Will I recommend amateur radio as a hobby to a young person? Only
guardedly and only after explaining everything that I've observed over
the last four decades as a professional in the electronics/
communications industry."
Then there's that "Extra right out of the box". Apparently you aspire
to become a ham as soon as the requirements have been lowered
sufficiently. Perhaps you can obtain that Extra right out of the next
box.
You aren't a regulator.
NEITHER ARE YOU.
No kidding? I am involved in amateur radio. Since you aren't a
regulator and you aren't a ham, your presence here and your fixation
with amateur radio are a tad peculiar.
Quit trying to play Raddio Kop. Or did you get one of those nice
shields in the mail so that you can flip open your badge wallet and
pretend to be some kind of officer? Were your friends and neighbors
amazed and delighted at your "promotion?"
This isn't the "raddio" and I've not present myself as an enforcement
official in amateur radio. Even if I was, it wouldn't matter. You
aren't a part of amateur radio.
You aren't a budding neophyte.
I was a "neophyte" in radio a half century ago. That quickly passed.
You have yet to become a neophyte in amateur radio. You'll become a
beginner after passing a license exam. You'll have the opportunity to
be a neophyte all over again.
You're a guy who delights in pointing out
his past accomplishments in military and commercial radio.
Sorry, but you are LYING again. As I keep saying, the US Army quit
using morse code modes for long-haul primary communications on HF
in 1948. I began operating on HF in early 1953 as part of a team of four
to keep a very large Army radio station operating 24 hours a day, seven
days a week.
Let's look at a few Anderson quotes over a long period of time:
from 2/1/97
Anderson: "Ahem...as one who was _working_ in radio 40 years ago..."
from 9/13/96
Anderson: "Len - tested and passed Commercial 1st Radiotelephone 40
years ago."
from 9/13/96
Anderson: "Geoffrey, between 1953 and 1955 I was a fixed-station
repairman, then supervisor on one team (of 4) at U.S. Army station ADA
in Tokyo. With 27 transmitters (23 on HF bands), 108 TTY circuits, 7
voice circuits over the Pacific, 24 hours a day, I may have worked more
traffic on HF than the average Extra ham will work in a lifetime.
ADA pushed a quarter million TTY messages a month..."
from 12/10/96
Anderson: "In my case, I've already worked 24-hour-a-day "DX" on HF
as a member of the U.S. Army in the 1950s...took and passed a
Commercial Radiotelephone license in 1956...worked as a hands-on
electronics engineer in successful design..."
from 10/8/96
Anderson: "Recall that I've worn the Army uniform and moved
more traffic on the HF transmitters I operated and maintained in one
month than any Extra class amateur has sent in an entire lifetime."
Any of that familiar to you?
"It ain't braggin' if ya done it." I did it.
What is it you did in amateur radio, Len? You're more likely as a
candidate for an amateur radio "Who's He?" than "Who's Who".
