writes: "Len Over 21" wrote ... The rest of Leonard's usual drivel snipped ... Tsk, tsk, tsk...still using pejoratives to open a message? "You are now working in the electronics industry too? Amazing." _________________________________________________ _______ What? The amazing Leonard not familiar with current technology? I'm familiar with current...and voltage...and lots of things in the whole field of electronics (radio is a part of that whole). But, electronics technology keeps advancing. I'm still learning and I started learning about it 57 years ago. I can measure current in many and different ways, including non-intrusive means at DC, AC, and RF. Do you wish to know more about current? Please consult an electronics text or the application notes of some electronics instrument manufacturers. I'm shocked. Safety first...use proper precautions around live conductors. Do not let your train of thought become derailed. You mean to tell me that this lowly Amateur Radio Op knows more about cutting edge technology than the Wizard of Electronics? I'm not a "wizard" nor have I claimed to be. After retiring (only from regular hours of work) from a career as an electronics design engineer, I've accumulated some amount of knowledge and experience in several disciplines of electronics. I'm still learning and working and designing and not afraid of jumping into venues populated (as this one) by a number of egocentric amateurs with delusions of expertise, trying to put down others who have the actual experience and knowledge. Your sarcasm (with overtones of spite if not spittle) is noted. Say it ain't so, Leonard. I am trying to discuss subjects in here, not personalities. People like yourself don't want to do that, are intent on promoting only themselves and their alleged expertise in communications. This particular thread was another's egoboo challenge about some NCVEC petition (actually two of them, the second only a plan). To be gracious and civil, you could have at least recognized that. Instead, you started in with your first public posting in here after a long absence as nothing but a direct personal attack on myself. If you wish to do nothing but make personal attacks, you are free to start other threads with nothing but personal condemnation of whomever you choose to target. This newsgroup is open to all and not moderated; not moderated except in the minds of some PCTAs. The immediate future for U.S. amateur radio is some kind of change in licensing regulations which may or may not eliminate the International Morse Code test from examinations. That immediate future also has the spectre of wide-range, wide-bandwidth noise on most of HF through low VHF from Access BPL. In essence, Access BPL implementation may cause EVERYONE's HF through low VHF receiver to kiss their sensitivity ratings goodbye...the QRM may prohibit any sort of low-level reception by anyone in an urban or suburban location. If you wish to continue personal attacks on individuals just to ease your perceived past woundings in this newsgroup, go ahead. Such seems petty and vindictive on your part. There's a very distinct possibility of an emergency in radio reception quality of the future that isn't coming from overt attackers on the US or any terrorists wanting any religious jihad or any imaginary threats to Homeland Security. It exists in the homeland itself. It is more constructive to fight against threats as a concerted group instead of playing verbal paintball of individual on individual for petty personal reasons. Your choice. LHA / WMD |
