I get a kick out of the "patriots" who never served in our military making all kinds of big, important noises about "the war effort!" Jimmie wants to support Katapult Kellie and his shooting bears for naval intelligence...so he loves to pick on those who served rather close to USSR territory. Never mind that a major area headquarters had all kinds of radio communications running 24/7 to the States and elsewhere or that Joe had The Bomb or that the Cold War was anything but cold in the fifties and sixties. Jimmie gotta drag out one of the Jane's books and Lecture all about USSR aircraft instead. Like Jimmie spent a lot of time on the flight line, of course. :-( Then Jimmie is working up to a hissy-fit asking "who's Rev. Jim?" After several Sermons on the Antenna Mount, he doesn't know?!? Heck, he may be doing a Gibson for a religious picture, drumming up support? [Hoot Gibson, not Mel...] BTW, did you know that a Morse Exam acts as a disincentive to CW use on HF? I'd heard that. :-) Along with manual telegraphy skills are the epitome of excellence, the heart and soul of U.S. amateur radio and "morse code is fast." And that MARS IS Amateur Radio? Hi, hi. These guys keep getting sillier and sillier. Could be too much RF exposure? [or the UHF connector got put into the wrong receptacle?} All I bothered to mention was that the old military phonetic alphabet ("able, baker, charlie") got replaced with the NATO phonetic alphabet ("alpha, bravo, charlie") in 1955...my next to the last year of active duty in the U.S. Army. Jimmie wants to rehash old, old arguments in this newsgroup rather than focus on the reality of now. I guess he figures that repeating the old stuff over and over might allow him to "win" one of the arguments...like watching re-runs of "Wheel of Fortune" and hoping some contestant will guess diffeently and win more... Silly. Yeah. |

I guess we can throw out as "irrelevent" the fact that there has been rather thorough documentation of the Armed Forces' use of "manual telegraphy" for routine communications right up to the 80's....And NOT "spoon fed by ARRL publications". Of course those are FACTS, and facts don't sit well with one who can't stand the truth. Okay, any positive statements about morse code are allowed and even honored even though some of the individuals involved are obviously fish stories. "some of the individuals involved are obviously fish stories."?? What does that mean? It means that if it ruins one of Lennie's rants it but be a fish story. Those against morse code are evil, wicked, mean, and nasty, are always incorrect and should never be considered. :-) Why should anyone be "against morse code"? Becasue to be "for" Morse Code is to be AGAINST Lennie...Can't have that now! So, some olde-tyme hamme can say he "shot bears for navel intelligence" and that be okay. Navel intel is fine as long as person is for morse code. Do you mean the pictures taken by W3RV? Guess what - they're real. Like it or not, civilian contractors do go out on US Navy ships. And they do see - and photograph - some pretty unusual stuff. Once again Lennie displays his colors with the "olde tyme hamme" reference. He MUST keep on fighting the good fight over ancient postings, again and again and again and again and...yawn You mean the like the one where you called another poster a "feldwebel" and told him to "shut the hell up"? Right. Do you think it's OK to tell someone else in a newsgroup to "shut up", Len? Obviously he does. He does it frequently. Usually when he's got his tail caught under yet another rocking chair, which is pretty frequently these days! The ROE of this newsgroup is: 1. Any kind of language or lack of civility by any morse code proponent is perfectly acceptible, even encouraged. No it isn't. No more or no less than the use of blatant profanity by allegedly college educated, "professional" engineers who are "against" Morse Code. 2. Anything said by anyone who does not love, honor, cherish morse code is to be denigrated, insulted, vilified, and looked at nasty just because of what they think. Not at all. No more or less than the insistence by certain alleged "professionals" that Amateurs show awe and reverence to them as our "superiors"...Recent suggestions by one of those alleged professionals that some in this forum are "jealous" or otherwise despise them for BEING an (alleged) engineer is a prime example. All of those sub- humans must always behave civilly and show respect for the code lovers even if the code lovers are behaving as iceholes. That pretty well sums it up. Really? Again with the inference of profanity. Some professional. Rev. Jimmie, go back to Google where you live... WHO is "Rev. Jimmie", Len? Sheeesh, Jim...You don't expect Lennie will ever live up to his own rhetoric and treat others in the same way he demands that HE be treated...even when you ARE treating him the way he expects...?!?! Almost seven years now and I STILL have yet to see him do as he professes or what he says he will do. And I take the "...go back to Google" remark to be yet another "shut up" by someone who can't stand being made a fool of with his own words....Again. 73 Steve, K4YZ |

Alun, if there be some etymology of that thread, no "DXCC" was involved. No contesting at all was involved. It began when Heil made some chance remark about "working Frenchmen on 6m out of band." Brian Burke tossed that one back to him with some mild ascerbicity which caused Heil to go bananas. Nursie got out his rusty bayonet, locked and loaded, and made like the Charge of Lite Brigade (which led into the Valley of Death of his of today). Nursie never got to Somalia, certainly not to any "hostile action" there (or anyplace else with any proof) but Brian Burke did. Brian earlier had made a chance remark about operating from there on ham frequencies, getting permission from his commanding officer. That resulted in a long, overdrawn word battle and flame war with Heil who was resentful (to the max) of anyone having the temerity to toss him a rejoinder. Nursie jumped in on that with usual diss-and-cuss, trying to make like a legal eagle with smarts instead of the hummingbird with dumbth. The PCTA of this newsgrope all seem to be self-righteous, prissy puritans of perfection who will explode with outrage at the slightest provocation of their beloved manual telegraphy as being anything less than the ultimate skill of amateurs. It's almost as Henry Ford put it on the color of the Model T: "You can have any opinion you want, so long as its pro- code." That's the "new" freedom of speech in here. Enjoy. |

Kinda like "Unlicensed devices play a major role in "emergency comms"...?!?! No, more like "CW gets through when nothing else will..." Or, that morse testing has to continue for "traditional" reasons (and because olde-tyme hammes are pished out and insist all newcomers have to "work as hard" as they did...because). It might also be about 26 patents when only 1 exists or shooting bears from an aircraft carrier or some Chesty Puller wanna-be saying "I was in seven hostile actions" and never revealing the When or Where of those. It could also be those old-tyme hammes who made big noises about "I design and build my own ham radios" who, a few days later would talk a lot about his latest Kit project. Of course, those same individuals have to misdirect a thread into their oh-so-very-important-personal-battles in order to diss-and-cuss those of opposite opinions. This thread started out about Phonetic Alphabets. The "Able, Baker, Charlie..." U.S. phonetic alphabet is familiar to me because I learned it and used it in the U.S. Army. That set was replaced by the NATO phonetic alphabet ("Alpha, Bravo..") adopted in 1955. I am familiar with that since I was IN the U.S. Army at that time, learned it and used it in military communications. That's unalterable fact despite what those weren't born then or mere infants at the time say. The NATO phonetic alphabet was adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organization shortly after the U.S. military adopted it. Some in here want to argue and argue that phonetic alphabet is called the "ICAO phonetic alphabet." That's rather petty. NATO had it first. That's unalterable fact. All the aggressive argumentation going on in here seems to be little more than a disguise to diss-and-cuss certain personalities, certainly not the subject matter. LHA / WMD |

Sunnuvagun! Not a single one of those predates the 1990s! Must be a Big Conspiracy to "hide CW from the masses?" Riiiight...the motion picture "Independence Day" showed us all the REAL truth where "CW" is used to defeat alien space invaders!!!!

These guys keep getting sillier and sillier. Kinda like "Unlicensed devices play a major role in "emergency comms"...?!?! No, more like "CW gets through when nothing else will..." Actually, CW gets through when everything else will. Or, that morse testing has to continue for "traditional" reasons (and because olde-tyme hammes are pished out and insist all newcomers have to "work as hard" as they did...because). An anachronism. It might also be about 26 patents when only 1 exists or shooting bears from an aircraft carrier or some Chesty Puller wanna-be saying "I was in seven hostile actions" and never revealing the When or Where of those. It could also be those old-tyme hammes who made big noises about "I design and build my own ham radios" who, a few days later would talk a lot about his latest Kit project. I've never seen orders for the seven hostile actions. They must not have actually occurred. I've never seen the schematics for the home designed (by a PE) amateur radio station. Perhaps they don't exist. Perhaps they do. Of course, those same individuals have to misdirect a thread into their oh-so-very-important-personal-battles in order to diss-and-cuss those of opposite opinions. One in particular. This thread started out about Phonetic Alphabets. The "Able, Baker, Charlie..." U.S. phonetic alphabet is familiar to me because I learned it and used it in the U.S. Army. That set was replaced by the NATO phonetic alphabet ("Alpha, Bravo..") adopted in 1955. I am familiar with that since I was IN the U.S. Army at that time, learned it and used it in military communications. That's unalterable fact despite what those weren't born then or mere infants at the time say. Strange coincidence. I learned it in the U.S. military also. The NATO phonetic alphabet was adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organization shortly after the U.S. military adopted it. Some in here want to argue and argue that phonetic alphabet is called the "ICAO phonetic alphabet." That's rather petty. NATO had it first. That's unalterable fact. All the aggressive argumentation going on in here seems to be little more than a disguise to diss-and-cuss certain personalities, certainly not the subject matter. LHA / WMD No Content in all of that agressive argumentation. |

In article , Alun writes: Don't forget, the requirements for DXCC are far more stringent than those of mere legality. I have seen threads before where people have argued past oneanother on this point, i.e. one of them has used the term 'legal' when they were really talking about DXCC eligibility, a big mistake. For example, operation without the permission of the owner of the land or building is not valid for DXCC, but it is seldom illegal. More to the point in this case, perhaps(?), operation from a war zone is legal with permission of whoever appears to be in control, but good luck getting it approved for DXCC. Alun, if there be some etymology of that thread, no "DXCC" was involved. No contesting at all was involved. It began when Heil made some chance remark about "working Frenchmen on 6m out of band." Brian Burke tossed that one back to him with some mild ascerbicity which caused Heil to go bananas. Nursie got out his rusty bayonet, locked and loaded, and made like the Charge of Lite Brigade (which led into the Valley of Death of his of today). Nursie never got to Somalia, certainly not to any "hostile action" there (or anyplace else with any proof) but Brian Burke did. Brian earlier had made a chance remark about operating from there on ham frequencies, getting permission from his commanding officer. That resulted in a long, overdrawn word battle and flame war with Heil who was resentful (to the max) of anyone having the temerity to toss him a rejoinder. Nursie jumped in on that with usual diss-and-cuss, trying to make like a legal eagle with smarts instead of the hummingbird with dumbth. The PCTA of this newsgrope all seem to be self-righteous, prissy puritans of perfection who will explode with outrage at the slightest provocation of their beloved manual telegraphy as being anything less than the ultimate skill of amateurs. It's almost as Henry Ford put it on the color of the Model T: "You can have any opinion you want, so long as its pro- code." That's the "new" freedom of speech in here. Enjoy. I got back from a week of aerial operations, drove by the storage unit, and checked that the lock wasn't jimmied ("jimmied" is a common use for B/E, not a slam against the Rev. Jim). My T5 logs are safe and secure. One day they may have real historical value. I could divide them up and run some through Christie's and the others through Sothby's. Maybe I'll just make a run of numbered copies, suitable for framing. |

Ham radio is a licensed service everywhere on this particular planet except in the cases of some very rare spits of dry land over which no nation claims as it's soverign territory and/or, given the lack of civilian licensing authority, then it gets down to whatever military force happens to hold sway in the neighborhood, etc., etc., the Spratleys being a particulary oddball example. Which is basically irrelevant in this thread, we all know this. Apologies. In Alun's case he tripped to the isle of Saint Martin and worked into PJ7 as a G/FS or as a W/FS as a properly licsened alien. Alun being big on his alienism and all that. I'm assuming Alun had his paperwork right if any was required. The goverment of FS was/is the licensing authority when Alun operated there. Therefore his FS to PJ7 QSO was a legitimate amateur radio contact even if was a DXCC no-counter. Brainiac's alleged T5 operation is a whole different ballgame altogether. Giving him the benefit of the doubt and accepting his tales about having "worked" a couple "dx countries" from Somalia on ten meters while he was there was not an amateur radio operation.

Therefore it's patently obvious that his "operation" was another simple case of freebanding, pirate radio, "extended CB" whatever ya wanna call it. For absolute certain he did not conduct a legitimate ham radio operation. It wasn't a T5 amateur radio station, Brainiac was just another unlicensed glom using some xcvr or another on 10M and did what they usually do. T5/NØmind's freebander logs and cards = ZIP everywhere. The real reality of this ongoing twisted bafflegab about Brainiac's "T5 ops" BS has nothing at all to do with ham radio except for the freqs on which he done it (maybe, but we'll never know) let alone ham radio policy.

And what about the CW courses still being taught at Fort Huncha-something somewhere in the southwest? Ohyez, the feds still have an abiding and ongoing interest in the use of CW. That's for intel intercept. Listening to others use it, and maybe some spoofing and such. Sure, they'd be grossly negligent if they didn't. I'll just bet that Osama Baby has at least looked at CW for his purposes and that since 9/11 our guys have ramped up their volume of poking around for it. So yes, the feds certainly do have an ongoing and abiding interest in the use of CW, one-way for their purposes and/or otherwise. However, amateur radio isn't the military. We don't have the same mission - or the same resources. Even if we did I wouldn't go anywhere near it. So, some olde-tyme hamme can say he "shot bears for navel intelligence" and that be okay. Navel intel is fine as long as person is for morse code. Do you mean the pictures taken by W3RV? Guess what - they're real. Like it or not, civilian contractors do go out on US Navy ships. And they do see - and photograph - some pretty unusual stuff. Har, I forgot about that, you did see some of those shots I took didn't ya? Yep. Some of them. Quite impressive, actually, both the photography and the subject. Geez that pile of old photos was a real trip back huh? Oyez. Gotta love the way the Putz has twisted 'em into "Naval intel" BS. Bad pun of "navel" noted. Another example of the Putz in his seven-yer-old mode. Which he consistently drops into when he can't find an adult comment to post. No such thing, they were typical on-the-road personal unclassified snapshots and I never claimed otherwise. That's true! Every time the Soviets buzzed a carrier it became a tourist event, bloomin' hoot. Kodak could have made money with a flight deck photo processing kiosk after those flybys. I wasn't a contractor, I was a direct employee of the U.S. Department of Defense and an offical civilian guest of the skipper while I was aboard. Always nice to be friends with the guy in charge. Nah, it was just another bit of Naval tradition, DoD civilian professionals were treated as officers and were expected to reciprocate the courtesies received. I had to introduce myself to both the skipper and the air boss and join them for dinner in officer's mess on Friday evenings, etc. I knew nothing about any of it when I logged aboard the first time. A crusty Chief Yeoman sat me down in his office and went thru the list of what I had to do and not do. The Putz never managed to be either, his types did my drudge work for me for cheap. Steerage dwellers. Of course such activities are also irrelevant to amateur radio policy. End of. roger that! 73 de Jim, N2EY w3rv |

If Kelly say it be "freebanding or pirate," it BE so. I agree 100% that if such authority wasn't obtained, it wasn't an amateur operation at all. "MARS is amateur radio." :-) In any event, the claimed operation allegedly took place on 10 meters and allegedly involved at least two QSOs. Rev. Jimmie Who should write a big book expose' of this whole thing. It wasn't a T5 amateur radio station, Brainiac was just another unlicensed glom using some xcvr or another on 10M and did what they usually do. T5/NØmind's freebander logs and cards = ZIP everywhere. The real reality of this ongoing twisted bafflegab about Brainiac's "T5 ops" BS has nothing at all to do with ham radio except for the freqs on which he done it (maybe, but we'll never know) let alone ham radio policy. So take it to alt.dot.radio. freebanding or wherever his kind lurk and quit wasting the bandwidth here folks. The thing I find interesting is the last paragraph of my post, below. *Nobody* is claiming to have worked T5/N0IMD, nor complaining about not getting a QSL card. In DX circles, that kinda says it all. Right. You two military veterans ought to go to the VA for help, expose all that "illegal freebanding and piracy," even filing charges with the USAF Judge Advocate General's office! *if* that were the case - wouldn't it make all of the claims true? And why get all upset about it? Nobody is claiming they worked T5/N0IMD. Nobody is complaining they didn't get a QSL card from the alleged operation. 73 de Jim, N2EY I want to be slim, but I don't want to be a slim. You are PCTA, hear you ROAR! LHA / WMD |

As long as he keeps refusing to post some sort of "evidence" for the claims he made, yes. Why? He may know just where they are. They may have been in a garage at one time and in a storage unit another. You don't really know either way, do you? Tsk, tsk. It's not what I know or don't know, Your Putziness....It's what PuppetBoy can produce to substantiate his claims. Can produce or will produce? Regardless of wether they are in his garage, a rental storage unit, his bathroom reading rack, or his imagination, they are NOT "here"...THAT is fact. So what's the problem? Anyone who reads these exchanges knows that Mr. Burke will simply avoid/refuse any sort of substantive answer on the subject. That's pretty much a given. So why bother about it? Brain knows that even if he produces some log with callsigns in it, it becomes a simple matter to contact the various persons to ascertain if they really DID work T5/N0IMD. Maybe. Or maybe those people will have moved, changed callsigns, passed away, etc. I am now sure that Jim was right. I am sure that Brain HAS a T5/N0IMD "logbook" somewhere. IIRC, the exact calim was "logs", not "logbooks". Could be some pieces of wood. It's just that it's empty. Or maybe there's one entry. Or two. Or three. Remember there were no claims as to number of QSOs, band, mode, rig, etc. One local VHF/UHF QSO would count as "operation" wouldn't it? Exactly. For example, I have operated from St Martin (FS) - one QSO on 2m FM. I probably have a log of it somewhere. Ironically, that QSO was with another country, St Martin (PJ7), but it doesn't count because it was via the local repeater in PJ7. Perfect example! Thanks, Alun! In point of fact, the alleged /T5 operation was allegedly on 10 meters, and at least two QSOs (OD5 and somewhere in Eastern Europe) were reportedly made. Given the state of 10 meters in 1993, such contact reports are quite credible, even with a very makeshift station. Good grief . . lotta burdensome worn out nonsense here. Ham radio is a licensed service everywhere on this particular planet except in the cases of some very rare spits of dry land over which no nation claims as it's soverign territory and/or, given the lack of civilian licensing authority, then it gets down to whatever military force happens to hold sway in the neighborhood, etc., etc., the Spratleys being a particulary oddball example. Which is basically irrelevant in this thread, we all know this. Apologies. In Alun's case he tripped to the isle of Saint Martin and worked into PJ7 as a G/FS or as a W/FS as a properly licsened alien. Alun being big on his alienism and all that. I'm assuming Alun had his paperwork right if any was required. The goverment of FS was/is the licensing authority when Alun operated there. Therefore his FS to PJ7 QSO was a legitimate amateur radio contact even if was a DXCC no-counter. Brainiac's alleged T5 operation is a whole different ballgame altogether. Giving him the benefit of the doubt and accepting his tales about having "worked" a couple "dx countries" from Somalia on ten meters while he was there was not an amateur radio operation. The ham radio licensing authority for members of the U.S. military of which he was a member was vested in the command structure of that expeditionary force. He did not have their explicit permission to operate an amateur radio station in T5. Kelly NEVER served in the armed forces of the United States. Kelly does NOT understand the military chain of command. Permission to do anything IN the military is granted by ranking officers. Didn't Kelly hear that at the Captain's Table while dining with all that rank? No? Tsk, tsk. Therefore it's patently obvious that his "operation" was another simple case of freebanding, pirate radio, "extended CB" whatever ya wanna call it. For absolute certain he did not conduct a legitimate ham radio operation. It wasn't a T5 amateur radio station, Brainiac was just another unlicensed glom using some xcvr or another on 10M and did what they usually do. Amazing at the range and scope of rationalization for HATING another newsgroup poster by the high-society ham extras. Kelly should explain his "superiority" in not only radio but relative to the rest of society. [Kelly is "superior" only because he claims that while busy inflating past claims to a greatness never before seen by hamkind] T5/NØmind's freebander logs and cards = ZIP everywhere. Kelly has taken on a new role...that of International Regulator And Punisher of anything an NCTA says. Yawn. The real reality of this ongoing twisted bafflegab about Brainiac's "T5 ops" BS has nothing at all to do with ham radio except for the freqs on which he done it (maybe, but we'll never know) let alone ham radio policy. So take it to alt.dot.radio. freebanding or wherever his kind lurk and quit wasting the bandwidth here folks. Kelly is allowed to inflate his single patent to 26. Kelly is PCTA. [proof is with the U.S. Patent Office and several patent websites, showing only one...and that one as co-inventor]] Kelli is allowed to shoot bears from an aircraft carrier. Kelly is PCTA. [there is no proof of this but Kelly will damn anyone who disputes it] Kelly claims knowledge of WW2 military vehicles and their radios as absolute truths. Kelly is PCTA. [proof is in many places, including old documents of the U.S. military disputing that] Kelly has repeatedly damned others opposing his fish stories. Kelly is PCTA. That is approved under the ROE of this news- group trying to be dominated by PCTA. They are PCTA, hear them ROAR! :-) LHA / WMD |

I have seen threads before where people have argued past oneanother on this point, i.e. one of them has used the term 'legal' when they were really talking about DXCC eligibility, a big mistake. For example, operation without the permission of the owner of the land or building is not valid for DXCC, but it is seldom illegal. More to the point in this case, perhaps(?), operation from a war zone is legal with permission of whoever appears to be in control, but good luck getting it approved for DXCC. Alun, if there be some etymology of that thread, no "DXCC" was involved. No contesting at all was involved. It began when Heil made some chance remark about "working Frenchmen on 6m out of band." Brian Burke tossed that one back to him with some mild ascerbicity which caused Heil to go bananas. Nursie got out his rusty bayonet, locked and loaded, and made like the Charge of Lite Brigade (which led into the Valley of Death of his of today). Nursie never got to Somalia, certainly not to any "hostile action" there (or anyplace else with any proof) but Brian Burke did. Brian earlier had made a chance remark about operating from there on ham frequencies, getting permission from his commanding officer. That resulted in a long, overdrawn word battle and flame war with Heil who was resentful (to the max) of anyone having the temerity to toss him a rejoinder. Nursie jumped in on that with usual diss-and-cuss, trying to make like a legal eagle with smarts instead of the hummingbird with dumbth. The PCTA of this newsgrope all seem to be self-righteous, prissy puritans of perfection who will explode with outrage at the slightest provocation of their beloved manual telegraphy as being anything less than the ultimate skill of amateurs. It's almost as Henry Ford put it on the color of the Model T: "You can have any opinion you want, so long as its pro- code." That's the "new" freedom of speech in here. Enjoy. I got back from a week of aerial operations, drove by the storage unit, and checked that the lock wasn't jimmied ("jimmied" is a common use for B/E, not a slam against the Rev. Jim). My T5 logs are safe and secure. One day they may have real historical value. I could divide them up and run some through Christie's and the others through Sothby's. Maybe I'll just make a run of numbered copies, suitable for framing. A press run would be a non-good idea. That would start another spate of Book Burning by the PCTA in general, sponsored by the enemies of fantasy. Some overweight stubbly-faced documentary film maker would get publicity for his expose of Somalia, that it "never happened." ["Moore to come" as Variety put it...] Denial of reality is the stock in trade of the olde-tyme hammes who love, honor, and obey morsemanship. Everyone who speaks against them "LIE!" :-) LHA / WMD |

Correct. I QSL'd 100%. It's easy to do when there's nothing to send. Tsk, tsk. Nursie still trying to invent a stinging rebuke and his stinger got broke so long ago that he can't even muster a good rash... :-) "Nothing to send." 100% of nothing is zero (0). I sent out a few more than one (1) QSL card. That you may have sent out "QSL" cards is not at issue. That you sent out QSL cards confirming your activites from Somalia are. What IS at issue is the validity of the operation (it wasn't) and whom you may have had QSO's with (you refuse to state). So far, you've not provided us with anything more than a claim that you operated from Somalia. Even if you DID "operate" from Somalia, from your own words in THIS forum it's apparent that you did not have legal sanction to do what you allege to ahve done, ergo the cards are invalid for ANY purpose other than a keepsake. No Proof = Didn't Happen. Show us your "Proof" that manual telegraphy is still used for U.S. military communications. NOW. Today. Confirm your claim of another posting. You have not yet proven that "MARS IS amateur radio." Despite the real, true Proof established by DoD Directive 4650.2 (eff. 21 Nov 03). The rest of the world lives in reality, not the fantasy imagination of "The Last Hostile Action Hero." Temper fry... LHA / WMD |
