Thanks for bringing this up Mate!.

My major problem is folks refering to interconnecting "hams" over the
internet as "ham radio". Ham radio is R A D I O . Not INTERNET
connected
to Nodes then to a radio somewhere. Call it whatever you want, but it
is
NOT ham radio.


No doubt similar utterances were made when spark transmitters were phased
out.

Technology moves on, that is the nature of things. No one is forcing you
to
use ILRP or any of the other modes.

Missed the point there Brian, Dan is complaining about what the mode is
called, not the fact that it exists..

eh?

Well, in that case why don't you call it something else. Then come back
when someone makes you call it by the name that upsets you.

Untill then, 'mellow out'.

In the scheme of things to worry about this must rate below which shoes I
wear tomorrow.

Dan, why are IRLP fans so quick to tell people to shut up and go away
when someone disagrees with them. Are people like you and "concerned
amateur" typical of what we might meet if we sample the mode?

I don't think anyone is saying "shut up" etc. I'm saying unless ILRP impacts
you, why worry?

Over the years I've come across many amateurs who hated some aspect of the
hobby- packet, anything computer based,........ Not one ever seems to have
found a niche they really do like.

No, I told him to shut his freckle and that his **TROLLING** was not
appreciated. If he doesnt have anything positive to say about it,
then go and play elsewhere where he can contribute

Right. II understan you, but at least two peopple here have told me to
shut up. Or go away, or something like that.

Considering that this is a Usenet group, wouldn't shutting up and going
away deprive them of a good row?

"shoutred"

"yeh"

"witht"

"COMPULSRY"

Glass houses and stones come to mind. When preaching to Brian about his
actions and beliefs, an attempt to respond in the same language would be
nice.

There you go putting words into my mouth again Brian. I never said I hate
IRLP. I said I don't like it being called Ham Radio.

And I don't much care if you like my opinion or not.

So there.
