Im sure your right, CB or 11 Meters is considered HF. He's so fulla **** the whites of his eyes gotta be brown. Incorrect. They are blue. That has to be an interesting look you've got there, Leonard. What color are the pupils? I for one was on the HF ham bands in 1951 *with CW* from W3CGS before I got my Novice ticket. Then you were BOOTLEGGING, old man. ILLEGAL. Tsk, tsk. I think we may see another gap in your knowledge looming. The only "HF experience" he had in that timeframe was as a grunt U.S. Army apprentice RTTY equipment mechanic & babysitter 1952-53. Incorrect AGAIN! Microwave Radio Relay Operation and Maintenance Supervisor, (then) MOS 281.6. Temporarily doing Fixed Station Transmitters operation and maintenance (supervisor) 1953 to 1956 at US Army radio station ADA in Tokyo, Japan. 43 transmitters on HF ranging from 1 KW (BC-339) to 40 KW (AN/FRC-22)...working to Seoul, Pusan, Okinawa, Manila, Saigon, Anchorage, Seattle, Hawaii, San Francisco on a 24/7 schedule. Not a single circuit used any morse code. I know you just forgot to mention, "Fifty years ago..." In 1952 I was in Basic Training and at the Signal School in Fort Monmouth, NJ. ....and a year later you were an expert. Dave K8MN |
