DaviD,

After all those High Taxes for Social Programs . . .
WHAT SAVINGS ? ? ? - It Boggles The Mind !

yes - i said it ~ RHF

As For Me - I Was Born In The USA -and-
I Am Proud To Be An American ! ~ RHF
====================================

You are proud to be a US Citizen.

Canadans, Cubans, Mexicans, Brazilians, Argentinians, Chileans, etc.,
are also Americans. The name has been high-jacked.

RE,

The Mexicans just may refer to themselves as : Norte Amercanos
-or- Americanos del Norte
http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estados...a_Am%C3%A9rica

The Cubans might call themselves : Americanos de Cuba.

Seriously NO Canadian would call themselves an : American [.]
- - - Even the French Canadians would say : Je Suis Un Canadien !

And the Argentinians, Chileans would most likely call themselves :
Sur Americanos -or- Americanos del Sur -or- Americanos Latinos

The Brazilians being slightly different would say : Americanos Sul

Only an American (USA) would Boldly Say :
I Am An American ! - and I Am Proud of It !
and so say i ~ RHF

You are one delusional mofo! Lay off the Bush sauce and you'll be able
to handle reality.

But hey, your life savings will still be intact!
Is socialized health care great or what?

- At least in Canada you get to keep
- your life savings if you get sick.

Socialism! Oh! Canada!
We speak two tongues...a nation united.
Yeah! Eh?

"L is easy to remember. "to hell with it".

Thank you, I was haveing trouble confusing "F" and "L"

I got nothing against CW, but being kept out of amateur radio for 40+ years
cus I had difficulty learning the code, sucks.
Finally, I got enough right to barely pass the 5 wpm test. Still can't find
anybody slow enough for me to copy on the air.
If I ever get good enough to use it, I'll try a few homebrew transmitter
projects.

I expect there are some technically competent people who might be interested
in amateur radio, but have no interest in learning code.

If you want easy...and most of the CW whiners do...why don't you just hook
your laptop up to your DSL line and stay the hell off the air?

Jeez, you've got a pathetic joke for an exam now with canned questions to
memorize and no code to learn. Too bad you're not still in your mother's
womb so you don't have to feed yourselves. Though you have deluded
yourselves into believing you are "hams," you are hardly believable when you
wear that title. The only reason you have been able to slip through into the
dumbed-down requirements and some sort of fcc "license" sham is because your
appliance manufacturers that make your rigs and the charlatans like the arrl
are selling out the hobby so they can sell you things.

It's ALL ABOUT THE MONEY and you no-coder idiots have fallen for it.

As for traditional, genuine "hams, we may be from the "Stone Age," but once
the dinosauers became extinct the pristine landscape took on pollution and
overcrowding. You simpletons have all drank the Kool-Aid and cannot see that
you are parties to the eventual elimination of ham radio.

Thank God for "stone age hams," for at least there is someone still around
that knows something about the avocation.

John,

Just get on digital modes. Don't worry about CW. Digital is where the
fun is and the copy is much better.

A buddy of mine in St. Louis and I experimented with low power and
various digital modes last night on 40 meters. CW was marginal. The
best was DominoEX with FEC - just about 100% all the time and it also
has a second channel to display additional information.

CW can be fun at times, but maybe it's not your thing. Let the
stone-age hams continue with CW, and move up and on to the digital modes.

MultiPSK, while a bit cluttered and ugly, is a great program you can
use. MixW is cleaner looking and very good, but not as many
capabilities in the program.

Move on and start having fun.
