Could you translate that word to conversational English, please.

Thank you.


That can't be done in this newsgroup. Newsgroup nabobs,
ever vigilant on keeping hum radio as it was when they were
young, forbid any sort of nasty words in regards to "CW."

It's perfectly permissible for Them to cuss, swear, and
generally talk down to those not favoring telegraphy...it just
CANNOT be done in return. SOP.

[Alun is not fond of telegraphy in case you wondered...]

It's the OF double standard (as usual).

"Les?"

My wife and I have a wonderful lemon tree in the back yard. I planted
it over three decades ago. Continues to produce great lemons.
Great with salmon cooked in Puget Sound barbecue style.

Wife got a recipe for candied lemon peel from a French food store
next to the airport. Delicious. REAL lemon, not that "phoney"
lemon extract one buys in the market in a plastic bottle trying to
look like a real lemon.

Sort of like the old futz "REAL ham" that knows nothing more
than beeping telegraphy. "Real" state of the art THAT is. Whenever
someone invents a time machine to go back to 1920 and stay there,
you ought to be first on the line to go.

Les Besser is a known name in RF design, was the one that sparked
the computer analysis program that ARRL couldn't sell (and dropped).

Too bad you beepers can't bring yourself to USE computers. Nothing
like that in the 1920s when telegraphy meant "real hams." Now polish
up that Spark transmitter and get ready to send...

Beep, beep.
