worth into a national, televised advertising campaign. Get
ham radio into the public eye, and stress the FUN, not the
public service (i.e. the work and worry).

4. Get the ARRL to enlist the assistance of any and all
celebrity hams in the accomplishment of #3 above.

5. Get the ARRL to stop pandering to the Welfare State
mentality (related to #1 above.)

Larry,

I don't care about what you think. I am tired of trolls
like Charles that respond with hostility to newbie questions
as he often does on the packet newsgroups.

Don't you think it is time to act a little more courteous?
If you don't have anything to say then do not say anything.
Furthermore, if you do not like the amatuer service then
go online to the ULS and resign.

Are you afraid of taking the measly 5 WPM code test over
again, if you change your mind?

Do you drive a truck all day with a wireless connection
and laptop? There are so many vile and wasteful posts
by you in addition to the others. Just cool down for
awhile

Bill
