How is that Gareth? Come on, a few published designs of your "biscuits" and
your idea will be up and running. However, if you don't progress the idea it
will wither and die. That would be a waste of a good idea.

I've offered to assist, if you decline that offer and succeed anyway all the
better for you. However, if you don't make this work, then it will reflect
on you and you only.

Get baking ;-)

Now your amateur licence is free, why not send at least £15 per year to
support the
Radio Communications Foundation or STELAR?

2. In your original post, you said "Might we all act together to produce
a series of "biscuits" that could then be assembled Lego-like fashion to
produce any rig or test equipment?". This appears to be an admirable
suggestion to help newcomers to electronics and amateur radio, not a call
to arms against a non-existent organisation called the RSCB.

I quite agree, Gareth's idea is an excellent one. I've heard something
similar before (not my idea, someone else's) and it didn't take off. Partly
as there were other constraints which don't apply here but partly as the
originator didn't follow through.


3. You seem to come up with many questions in this newsgroup but sadly
never seem to follow on with helpful solutions. It would be extremely
helpful if you did, so please do as I would be very interested.

I'd also be interested. However, I seems you and I are more keen to progress
the idea than its creator.

What you have quoted below is most certainly _NOT_
a support for the proposal. There is no suggestion of what
the biscuits might be; no suggestion of what the standard interfaces
between biscuits might be; no suggestion of what the mechanical
arrangements migth be; no proposals of component sets.

Well Gareth, the idea was yours and I was rather hoping you'd supply, at
some point, those details.

In fact, there has been _NO_ support whatsoever for the
proposal that _WE_ all act together to save Ham Radio
from the predations of the RSCB and other destructive influences.

What has there been?

Why, merely an examination of means whereby the proposer
himself might gain some attention and reflected glory from
the actions of others and to set in place,

I said not very long ago that someone was being set up to take the rap
for the failure of the project, but I had no inkling that it was going
to be over the issue of free web space, and so soon.

It's all your fault, Brian.....according to one person, anyway.

As intimated by A.N.Other, your sincerity is
called into question.

I proposed a joint effort through Usenet, and outlined
how some of these biscuits might be evolved.

You very quickly turned to uttering personal slights
and have continued relentlessly down your chosen path.

Where are these "personal slights"? I offered to help publicise your idea.
I've prepared some space to do so or, if you prefer, I will publicise a link
to a website you can set up yourself.

So come on, "get baking those biscuits" or I suspect some will conclude your
idea was the hardware equivalent of "vapourware".

No Gareth, it was a pointer toward what some may assume.

If you neither accept my offer or publish your ideas elsewhere, who could
blame those who conclude you weren't really behind the idea?

If you don't want to proceed, just say so. Maybe someone else will pick up
the reins and run with it.

After the way you have treated Gareth over the past few years, do you
really think he is going to accept your charity now? You're in cloud
cuckoo cuckoo land if you think he will!

And, I'm sure I'm not alone in thinking that your sudden change of heart
has some ulterior motive! It's not difficult to get free web space and
if he wanted to continue with this, I'm quite sure he could do it on his
own, and without you constantly harping on trying to score points!

Don't let them rip you off any more.
Do the right thing, resign from the RSGB today.

The RSGB said Radio Amateurs were a threat to national security!
Is this the type of organisation you want to represent you?

Gareth's reply to Brian's offer made it clear that he expected far
more than assistance with site hosting, and threw in a personal attack
for good measure, so I suspect your comment is somewhat ill-informed.

Here is the relevant part of Gareth's posting:

I doubt his sincerity, based on his previous emotional
history expressed in this NG, and his contemporaneous
linking up with Mrs.Nugatory in an abusive sub-thread.

What you have quoted below is most certainly _NOT_
a support for the proposal. There is no suggestion of what
the biscuits might be; no suggestion of what the standard interfaces
between biscuits might be; no suggestion of what the mechanical
arrangements migth be; no proposals of component sets.
