So, if you start off at, say, 9AM in the morning, how long is it before you
have checked that every circuit stage of your Japanese rice box is working correctly, and that the combination of all such sub circuits is working as it should be, in terms of measurable power output and frequency accuracy, both at the fundamental and that all the significant harmonics are sufficiently low? (This, of course can only be done once that you have gone through a similar process for your test equipment) (This aspect of amateur radio does not apply to those with licences little removed from CB radio, the Fools' and Idiots' here in Brit, and the inappropriately-named "Technician" over in Yank) |

This is a serious enquiry (despite the infantile attention-seeking from
some quarters) to see if there are any real radio amateurs about in the world today, or whether the cadre has degenerated to become indistinguishable from the untechnical consumerism that is the world of CB Radio. The spirit of enquiry, curiosity and gentlemanly debate thereto seems largely to be a thing of the past, killed off, in Brit at least, by the coffer-filling of the RSCB. "gareth" wrote in message ...

... At least we have an explanation for his chronic lack of productivity. Presumably he checks his computer to a similar level, including every byte of the BIOS, OS, and any other software he plans to use. He would need to do this every day, using his rather silly approach, lest a byte has changed. Ludicrous. I can't imagine many companies being very understanding of a low grade employee who fails to produce any work himself but constantly claims to be checking the work of others etc. Suddenly is all explained, vapour ware projects, employment issues, ..... Once again, Brian, M3OSN, OM, it is you who originates the personal abuse that you try to lay at my door, for the thread was not started as such a vehicle for me (although you think it to be so for you?) There are no computers or software in my shack, BTW. Who said anything about doing it every day? Not I. But perhaps once again it is you briefly scanning and then jumping to the wrong conclusion? The purpose of the thread was to suggest that amateur radio is dying on its feet and that the radio amateurs of today are little different from CBers, in that they buy everything off the shelf, do not understand its innards, and even send equipment back to the emporia if ever needing repair. |

... The idea that properly designed equipment has to be checked daily is preposterous. I didn'y suggest that it had to be checked daily, although some infantile types who always rush in with abusive comments jumped to that conclusion. Interesting that you, as well as Reay, in order to justify your own infantile outbursts, claim, quite wrongly, that the threads I initiate are there as an excuse for abuse. |

The idea that properly designed equipment has to be checked on any regular basis is preposterous. Now here I disagree, Properly designed Amateur Radio gear needs frequent checking,, For example between 3 and 5 AM (All times are Eastern Time zone) you need to check it on 3583 (Before Breakfast club) from 5 to whenever (not really sure, thin 7 or 8) Same frequency and it's the breakfast club A couple hours later (nine to noon) it needs checking on 7272 for the 72 chew.. Shall I continue. Though you and I may well have a DIFFERENT Definition of "Checking". I like to check mine on PSK in the afternoon and evening too. Sounds like an extended tune up session is called for on those frequencies and times. -- http://pandasthumb.org/archives/2014...tanding-c.html "During my tenure as an active young-earth creationist, I never once heard other creationists accurately describe what evolutionary theory is or how it is supposed to work. Nor did I understand it myself. Creationists often seem familiar with a lot of scientific terminology, but their understanding is filled with gross misinformation. Thus, a host of misconceptions is believed and taught throughout creationist circles, making it almost impossible for actual evidence to really sink in." |

snip Trollurary. The bottom line is that it was implied that something you did, used, made, worked with, said, or observed was less than perfect, at which point you went off into one of your usual rages. Once the rage starts, the other person is a troll, an anonymous troll, a liar, ignorant, stupid and a few other of your usual ad hominem responses. Once the rage really gets going, you start interpreting what the other person says as having the opposite meaning to what was said and saying the other person said things that were never said. During the rage you go off onto tangets based on your misinterpretation of the other persons responses that can only be seen though your blood lust filled eyes. The rage will often continue across topics and sometimes even groups as blood lust within you boils over. This will continue until everyone else gives up and you have the last word. You are just a thin skinned, egomaniacal playground bully with delusions of perfection. -- Jim Pennino |
