Yes, I agree!! Furthermore, I think, IMHO, that that is what this newsgroup
should continue to be about---the exchange of valuable information and the
education of those less versed but definitely interested ones (people like
me) in the ways of the firebottle. People who are intelligent enough to be
interested in 50 year old (or more), 50 lb. (or more) pieces of radio
equipment usually are intelligent enough to refrain from senseless flaming.
Those with more neanderthal sloping foreheads are the ones who seem to knock
what we do. There's ideas to be shared, and tips to be learned in keeping
these fine old pieces of gear WORKING!!


Is radio a great hobby? I sure think so. How about you?
