You just never know when you might need one, and Morse Code just isn't needed to be an effective emergency radio operator. Brian, there's no use trying to argue with "Quitefine," an unconvincing screen surrogate of James P. Miccolis. :-) He is stuck in the morsemanship rut and not even a Land Rover can yank him out. Let him admire the code keys on display at the AWA and let him live in the past pioneers' time, which he did not. I find that intriguing coming from a man who feels compelled to make numerous posts, spanning the better part of a decade, to a newsgroup dealing with an endeavor in which he has no part. You say he has no part, yet he has contributed to the amateur literature, Literature? I'll concede that Leonard authored some articles for a commericial venture in the form of an amateur radio magazine. That didn't make him a radio amateur. Yet he has played a part. Didn't you say he plays no part? Len plays no part in amateur radio. Your illustration shows him playing a role in the writing game. and he has commented on amateur matters to the FCC. By your logic, comments to the Commission on broadcast station ownership make one involved in broadcasting. Len's comments didn't make him a radio amateur. Broadcast stations have a responsibility to the community. People with radio receivers play a part. People who make comments WRT a broadcasts stations activities play a part. Regulators of broadcast stations play a part. Oh, you've left so many out of the list of those playing a vital role in broadcasting, "William". There are the battery sellers, those who provide electrical power to your home, telephone and cellular company employees who enable "talk radio" to work, thousands and thousands of musicians (living and dead), all the Chinese laborers who produce the crappy radio equipment sold in the millions of units, the folks at Radio Shack and Wal-Mart who sell us those Chinese radios. Yes, young "William" all of these play a vital role in broadcasting. Lord almighty, you are such a Jeter! There are probably amateurs (the kind with a license) who have made fewer contributions than has Len. Is something one does for money a contribution? Is something which results in a negative action a contribution? Is something which results in no action a contribution? You're so full of ???'s today. You'll have to ask the FCC. I don't think so. The FCC isn't likely to have the answers. You're awfully big on asking questions. Why don't you take a stab at answering some of them? How strange that you say he has no part. Len has no amateur radio license. Neither does that Powell kid. That "Powell kid"? Do you mean the chairman of the FCC--the one who receives a salary for overseeing the regulation of communications in the United States? Len H. receives no such salary and has no such power. Is that clear enough? Powell regulates. Anderson does not. Powell receives a hefty salary to regulate. Anderson does not. Len may not operate radio equipment under Part 97 of the FCC regs. Len may operate -amateur- radio equipment while you are the control operator. Like hell he will with me as the control op. Len is not a regulator of amateur radio. Are you a regulator of amateur radio? I'll bet you've seen this befo No, I'm not a regulator but I am an active participant in amateur radio. Am I to understand that only regulators of amateur radio "play a part?" You might understand that. It would likely be incorrect. Those who are participants play an even bigger part that regulators. I don't find that strange at all. I find it fitting. I find you strange. But then, you seem to find it tough to tell the difference. You seem to think Leonard H. Anderson is normal. Len plays no part in amateur radio despite your convoluted attempts at reason. Dave K8MN |
