Unbeknown to me, this thread had already been cross-posted to
the CB groups, and I would have removed that cross-posting
had I been aware of it.

In respect of that, I apologise if my remarks have caused
any offence to the CB community. However, I do not
withdraw my remarks - they are my opinion as to the
relative standing of Radio Hams and of CB Radio
enthusiasts where the playing-field is that of Radio
Hams.

However, having said that, the material quoted below
serves, I think, to illustrate quite well the
intellectual standing of CB Radio enthusiasts
upon which I have commented.....

And how would you have done that?

Your remarks couldn't cause offense to anyone among these pages.

However, I do not withdraw my remarks - they

are my opinion as to the relative standing of

Radio Hams and of CB Radio enthusiasts



And that is what is gret about usenet. One can express their opinion
openly.

where the playing-field is that of Radio Hams.

You were doing so well by admitting it was but your opinion you were
expressing. Now that you have managed to paint all those who use a cb
with a single wide brush, you need adhere your own rule. Google "N8WWM".
Read. Enjoy. Is it now safe to say his posts serve as the intellectual
standing of Radio Hams? Of course not. It merely illustrates your
incompetence regarding communications with your fellow man. Thank you
for illustrating what has become one of the most extreme examples of
irony amongst our radio hobby.....some of those licensed for radio
communications know the least of it. You sir, epitomize the example.

No, twitlips...you are a just a queenboy who can't do anything but
copy/paste. The only original thing you do is with a new truck driver
every night.

In the realms of talking specifically about radio apology accepted but
everyone swears at some time. Amateurs included. While i dont condone it i
can understand it. If you upset someone enough you "will" get this sort of
response. Im a CB'er by the way.

Why, so that you can abuse people behind their back? What would be the point
of replying to someone, but cutting out the group that the OP uses?

I would bet that, if this was cross-posted to *real" tech groups, many qualified
engineers would also be offended by your suggestion that you are a "higher"
level of person.

However, I do not withdraw my

Hams.

Playing field? So this is nothing more than a game to you, see who can cause the
most offence.

Your problem is that you are blaming the wrong people.
Maybe this is all just an excuse, a cover for your hatred of CB, nothing to do with
Amateur rules. Otherwise you would direct your comments and anger at those
making the changes.

You write a message which anyone of at least average intelligence will know will offend
certain groups of people, then pretend to be shocked when some respond angrily. You
may be a Ham, but that doesn't mean you can act.

Before putting the angry response down to "CB mentality", take a look through the Google
archives at all the serious abuse sent to newsgroups by some licensed Amateurs.
Six of one, half a dozen of the other.
