"Vshah101" wrote in message ... From: "Dee D. Flint" You want other hams to use Morse so you don't have to talk to them. That's extremely anti-social on your part and totally opposite of your previously stated desires that you would like to get hams to be more social. I don't want to talk to some older males. Thats not anti-social. Same with me too.... but there are some that I would like to talk to as well, but I would definitely love to see more women on the air! And they are there Fri, Sat night on several bands, including 40m, 2m, and ATV. I know from the DXpedition in May. Many Hams will work DX. They get a thrill from that. But, they won't talk to the person next door or to anyone in person. Thats why a local Ham's neighbor complained that the Ham has too many antennas at his house. That is something I have observed as well..... kinda like the addage, "I am a ham operator, I have friends all over the world, but none in my backyard!" I believe (IMHO) that we should work outward from where we are getting to know our nieghbors first, and working out like the ripples in a pond after a rock is thrown into it. My personal preference is to get to know a person for who they are, what they are passionate and interested about, likes/dislikes etc., for the times when I am not operating in a public service/emergency communications setting. -- Ryan, KC8PMX FF1-FF2-MFR-(pending NREMT-B!) --. --- -.. ... .- -. --. . .-.. ... .- .-. . ..-. .. .-. . ..-. ... --. .... - . .-. ... |
