wrote How's come they're not looking for a couple of good CW Ops? The Guamanian judges give Brian 9.8 on the Olympic Troll-O-Meter, but they were over-ruled by the umpires in instant replay, who award it a 2.7 The Guamanian judges lodged a formal protest! It was sufficiently trollish, of course, but way too obvious. It was poorly written, poorly executed, and was so incredibly lame as to lack the true drawing power of a really masterful troll. Maybe as high as a 2.9 for the sheer dump huck stupidity of the premise, but a 9.8? Never! The Guamanian judges tear their hair out, throw their balalaikas down in dismay, and perform the traditional Chamorran Dismay Chant! They demand a recount!

Thank you for your concern. ******** AA2QA's reply seperator ********* What you do not seem to realize is that the folks that actually learned something (before the multiple guess answers came out), just might have a few skills. These are usually folks that have a genuine interest in how things work, not how to turn a knob or push a button or keys. This isn't to say that folks that simply wish to talk are not welcome; they certainly are. Although I do not possess a college degree, I am a certified electronics technician. I have repaired two-way radios (business and trunking radios). I have done a lot of electrical control and power wiring. I have not worked in high voltage, but have done a fair amount of 277/480 3 phase work. I've climbed atop silos and repaired bag houses. Welded, soldered, cut, run milling machines, surface grinders, lathes, and more. If a saws-all can't do the job readily, the oxy-acetylene tourch will handle it well for me (hmmmm ... wonder how that would solder pl-259s? LOL). Done EMC compliance studies along with UL compliance. Come to think of it, ozone compliance. Can you spell exponential decay? Come to think of it, I've programmed slc-500s, Texas Instruments PLCs, Modicon PLCs, and more (including data highways and ethernet). Even written a program to generate ladders from simply inputting I/O assignments and letting the program know what I want to have happen. Under 15 minutes to properly program 3 cells. Another 5 minutes to debug because someone wired a switch backwards (normally closed rather than normally open). The nice thing about amateur radio is that it encompasses a whole spectrum of individuals, unlike most trade magazines. To me, advertising in an amateur publication such as QST would make a lot of sense, especially if you are trying to locate a number of different skills (rather than a number of ads in different magazines or newspapers). As to Morse, it can be fun. If we had difficulty with it back when (for me, 1962), we learned to overcome that difficulty (not a bad thing to learn, in my humble opinion). Come to think of it, as much grief as it gave me (when memorizing dots and dashes), once I learned it by sound, I enjoyed it and by 1967 had perfect copy at 40 words per minute in the U.S. Navy. More than 40? I don't know; that was the fastest test they had back then. I would have had difficulty much beyond that as we were banging away with manual typewriters then. I might have (possibly) made 50 at most. Disclaimer - that would be perfect typewritten copy filling close to a whole page of paper. A few errors would have allowed me considerably faster copy. Then. (LOL) I'd suggest rethinking your position. Best regards from Rochester, NY Jim AA2QA |

Another 5 minutes to debug because someone wired a switch backwards (normally closed rather than normally open). And a whole lot more, I bet. The trouble is that skills aren't as valued as they once were. Particularly if they aren't "state of the art", whatever that means. Whether it be Morse Code or how to put up an antenna in a less-than-perfect location, or even make your own bread, many people look down upon "basic" or "old" skills as a sort of poor relation to "high tech". As in "not worth their time or effort". The nice thing about amateur radio is that it encompasses a whole spectrum of individuals, unlike most trade magazines. To me, advertising in an amateur publication such as QST would make a lot of sense, especially if you are trying to locate a number of different skills (rather than a number of ads in different magazines or newspapers). Agree 100%. There's a long history of such ads, too. As to Morse, it can be fun.

(LOL) It took a bit of doing for me to learn Morse Code. First I acquired a straight key and built an oscillator so I could practice sending. But they also tested receiving back in 1967, so I had to build a receiver, find the 80 meter ham band, find some hams sending fairly slowly, and then figure out what they were sending. I guess being 12-13 years old and not having anybody tell me I was too young helped... --- You may enjoy this article, too: I sure did. http://www.salon.com/opinion/feature...ml?sid=1394604 73 de Jim, N2EY |

I respect freedom of speech and I respect freedom from government tyranny. and when you going to start walking that talk My name is Ace - Look up WH2T on QRZ.com I take it your name must be "an_old_friend" I respect the opinions of licensed amateur radio operators more than the opinions of unlicensed people in rec.radio.amateur groups. But, just because someone has a call sign doesn't automatically earn them my respect. Ace - WH2T "You have rights antecedent to all earthly governments; rights that cannot be repealed or restrained by human laws; rights derived from the Great Legislator of the Universe."-John Adams. --------------------------------------------- Freedom of speech means I have the right to say if I think someone's posts are ignorant, stupid, or just plain wrong. your point? if any you clearly don't respect the rights of others to disagree with you so you talk the talk, but when you going to walk the walk? Ace - WH2T Government is not reason. Government is not eloquence. It is force. And, like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master. -George Washington ---------------------------- |

So... Work keeps me out of RRAP for a couple of weeks and I "return" only to find those who accuse me of certain things being waist-deep in it themselves. Why am I not surprised. BTW, Mark, He DID clearly "respect" your right to "disagree" with you...He just called your posts for what they (usually) are..."ignroant, stupid, or just plain wrong" and YOU were the one with the "disagreement" issues...Again. His "point" was that he clearly shares the same opinion as other educated and informed men about YOUR "points". As for "talking the talk but not walking the walk", when are we gonna see you in "uniform", "Colonel"...?!?! At least the countless spelling lessons I gave you appear to have paid off. Steve, K4YZ |
