Seems like everyone is ignoring how the circuits work and taking the 'black-box' approach instead. [...] where's the fun in just hooking up power to a chip? That's not homebrewing, at least not in my book. Fair enough - only you can decide what you enjoy. When you post to the group, we know where you're coming from, so we can interpret accordingly. But only I can decide what I enjoy, only Harry what he enjoys, and so on for every individual. Amateur radio and electronics is about doing what each of us personally likes, not what we "should" or "must". You are entitled to your own opinions about other people's preferences, Frank, but it's disrespectful to post them here as personal criticisms (and it doesn't encourage the rest of us to respect you). Let me ask you a simple question: Suppose someone buys an SP-600, mounts some chrome knobs, spray-paints his name on the front panel, then posts on the newsgroup saying, "Hey, look what I built!" Would you call that "homebrew"? -----= Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----== Over 100,000 Newsgroups - 19 Different Servers! =----- |
