Buy a rig, an antenna, and pay some people to put it up.

Presumably the

only requirement is to know how to read, talk and mash the PTT

button.

"Mash" the push-to-talk button? That means those
owners have to know where to get the PTT control
fixed! :-)


Yep, he said "mash," but must have been mistaken when he said they
would know how to read.

You see, people that use a microphone are clods. They would never
"depress" the ptt button, nor would they "press down" on it. They
are
of low intelligence and barely human, and only know how to "mash"
said
button. If no one is looking, they may actually step on the
microphone
with bare, dirty feet and yell into it.

People who use a telegraph key are genteel. They know how to
properly
close the contacts, form a character, and move on. They do so
with
their pinkie finger extended, and have no dirt under their nails.

For it is written.


People around my area say "mash" as in referring to "pressing"
something I
say it too at times. In general it is said in contesxt such as "Hey
Bob,
mash that light switch will ya?

I'll quite saying mash if it offends all of you that much.

A real "communicator" will say 'key the mike', or 'key the

Sorry, but real "communicators" refer to "key" when they load an
encryption code.

Oh dear....here he is again. Your right. I've been meaning to turn in my

room.

"KY-7?" Is that some kind of jelly? :-)

You must mean KY-57 at least (that's about to go obsolete and
replaced with already-operational newer crypto things)? How
about VINSON? Want some more alphabet-soup names? :-)

Dan, you are about as up-to-speed on today's crypto devices
as you are about on-line TTY rotor machines or the M-209 Code
Converter. Geez. :-)

Screw off dip****.

Go back to the corner and pop some more brews with your bros
as you wait for someone small to come by, ones that your gang
think they can beat up, OK? :-)

No dip**** I meant KY-7. And I was not discussing modern crypto equipment.
Apparantly you are. Thus we have nothing to say to each other....which btw
is usual. I don't know why I bother with you Len the loon, oh I remember
now. I had to scratch my butt and your name came up.

Well bb we are talking about ham radio. Of course I understand, LEN the

Now Dan, you're mixing metaphors.

You're either talking about "real communicators" or you're talking

Which is it?
