No, You missed another ten questions, the CW questions, but since the
Tech license is dumbed down you weren't tested on them.

Don't know which HT to recommend, but a lot of No-codes like the
Cobra 148GTL for HF.
That was classic!!!!!


However, the way Slow Code slams new hams is totally unacceptable. He
tries to drive them out instead of encouraging them to go for the gusto.

I'm motivating them. And when I catch them on the air, they have an
enjoyable and educational contact.


Comments like the dumbed down item and the CB item will NOT motivate them.
To motivate them, simply say "Great, how can I help you explore all the
aspects of ham radio".

When they find out CW, RTTY, packet, PSK, SSTV, are fun, they have just
stepped in to a much larger ham radio, than one with just a ham talking on
a microphone.


That is a much better approach so long as you don't go on and on about
"dumbed down" licenses. The people taking the test have no control over the
level of tests required. Simply show them the wonders of ham radio without
comment on your personal opinions about dumbing down, CB, etc.

Slow Code is the kind of guy that everybodys hates on the air. He is
the Jammer because no one listens to him.

Amazing; A new ham is excited about getting his ticket and these clowns
get into his face about CW.

Next we will hear more griping about the hobby dying. No wonder. Just
read these posts, who would want to be associated with such clowns. I am
always amazed these clowns are so familiar with CB model numbers etc.

Thanks John.

Is 11 meters dead or did your CB radio break again? You
seem to be spending a lot more time on the internet lately.

Thanks for the advice. I already went with Yaseu. Got a good deal on
it. Listening to it right now. I'm picking up 12 repeaters on the duck
antenna. Complicated to figure out to begin with but pretty cool. It
even picks up 800 MHz police and am air. I'm in hog heaven.

good to hear

have a good time
