Fortunately I only see Len's idiotic comments when someone replies to
them.

Tsk. PCTA Double Standard invoked. :-)

Speaking against morse code is "idiotic!" :-)

Ostrich syndrome. Hiding one's head in the sand does NOT
make them disappear. :-)

Notice how he has inserted material that wasn't even there. I've
worked
plenty of non-DX stations on HF. He ignores the fact that the same
propagation principles apply to domestic and international
communications.

"Ignore?" :-) Hardly.

The SAME laws of physics apply to ALL radio, Dee.

Electrons, fields and waves ignore human divisions of
"domestic" and "international." They also ignore the
human divisions of "ham radios" versus all other radios.

I first started doing both domestic and international
radio communications 52 years ago. Laws of physics
haven't changed in all that half century.

I am also amazed at how he keeps flattering me by using the term "Mama
Dee",
since this is the most important job in the world for any woman with
children. He probably intends for it to be derogatory but has failed
miserably in that regard.

Tsk. I suppose you want to "discipline" those who make
derogatory to you? :-)

Tsk, tsk, tsk. Trying to treat grown-ups as if they are
children is NOT a mature behavior. :-)


Notice how he cannot distiguish between 2nd best and 2nd most used.
These
two phrases have entirely different meanings.

Depends on whether one is in REALITY or the fantasy
of the PCTA extras. :-)

The rest of the radio world thinks of morse code as a
"Once Was," and such isn't in any "2nd," nor "3rd," nor
any category. :-)

Tsk, tsk, tsk. ONLY in amateur radio is that old 1844
morse code considered an ultimate skill achievement
worthy of amateur radio license "qualification!" Wow!

Hello? Can anyone say "RETRO?" :-)


Again he is totally fuzzy on the difference between 2nd best and 2nd
most
used.

Tsk. I've offended Mother Ham! [isn't that awful?!?]

Well, one out of two ain't bad (I really like apple pie). :-)

[try the phrase "mom and apple pie" for those who are
connect-the-dot impaired... :-) ]

Yup...the following is a catechism of the Church of St. Hiram
following:

Or, to keep the "CW" bandplan open as an
olde-tymer's playground/sandbox to keep their righteousnesses
happy. "Real" radio operators do "CW." All important, vital,
necessities, righteous. Get and keep federal LAW to TEST all
hobbyists operating below 30 MHz or the sky will fall!

To the PCTA extras, morse code IS first! Hear ye! Hear ye!

:-)
