So if Mike Powell can have an uninformed opinion, why can't anyone else? Nobody can unless they've taken a code test. Mikey Powell didn't so Judge Sir James of Morsemanhall forced him to resign... :-) beep, beep |

Reverend Jim issued a Sermon On The Antenna Mount! :-) Not only that, the poor guy is still furious over NOT "winning" a newsgroup argument THREE YEARS AGO! :-) Not only that, the "argument" wasn't even about RADIO! Hello? This newsgroup is about AMATEUR RADIO POLICY. Military and international socio-political politics are another group. "RADIO" includes all of the HF portion of the EM spectrum. That's where the major international communications networks WERE in the 1950s. I was part of that - for three years - as a volunteer in the United States Army...operating HF transmitters for an Army station. In Jim's circles, there is no "volunteering." You get bad grades and your waiver goes away. Then the Draftsman comes knocking. Tsk, the "knocking" stopped about 32 years ago. Jimmie has NO worry. He could sit back in comfortable safety in PA and read all about the military and international realpolitik without once having participated in anything. How many Soviet aircraft did you see when you were in Japan in the 1950s, Len? Only one, but at a distance, couldn't get close enough to read any manufacturer's tags on the airframe of the MiG. From a North Korean defector who flew it to South Korea, was in display at a USAF base on Honshu. I've seen Soviet aircraft without being overseas. I've seen them on RADAR penetrating CONUS airspace. So where were you when you saw Soviet aircraft? How did you serve? Jimmie did proofreading on the Brit series "Janes All The World Aircraft." Did that at the local public library. He became a Virtual military expert without once being IN any branch or working in any office of the Department of Defense. I don't claim to be an expert in anything. That would probably be for the best. Ah, but he comes ON like the CEO of the newsgroup. :-) You've never been "IN" amateur radio, yet you want to tell us How It Should Be. When you merely want to exclude people??? I've no problem with him anything he might say to you with your kind of attitude. Jimmie needs to be newsgroup CEO. Getting to the heart of the matter, Jimmie feels TERRIBLY "insulted" when one doesn't like what Jimmie likes. Not true. You're the one who calls people names, and tells them to shut up if they don't agree with you. Jim calls them jackasses. PCTA Extra Double Standard. QED. [he is regularly bringing up old, faded postings from Google as if to continue to "do battle" on those topics forever and ever] Gee, Len, you bring up even older and more faded stuff about Highly respected... defunct ham radio magazines and your experiences of a half-century ago. Every issue of QST has excerpts from half a century ago. I've never, ever, ever seen you complain. Ever. Brian, careful, you know how painful it is to remind Jimmie of the obvious. Pastor Jimmie might write another Sermon on the Antenna Mount! Why is it OK for you to rehash events of 20, 30, 50 years ago, but not OK for others to remind you of the events of 2 or 3 years past? Because you say it isn't OK for Len to remind you of events of 50 years ago, but never comment when the ARRL does it. Jimmie wants to rehash what I was "supposed to do" in Japan, but Jimmie has NEVER served in any military anywhere anytime. That's "okay." Jimmie wants Total Agreement with his OPINIONS. If there is no Total Agreement, then dissention is "wrong," must be BANNED, shouted down, tarred and feathered, etc., etc. Seems like a double standard on your part. Double-standard, indeed. That could be your middle name. I think it should be just "H" (for hypocrite). Jimmie wants NUMBERS? He is regularly giving some sort of tabulation on the "valid licenses" of radio amateurs in the USA. No, I'm not. You're mistaken, Len. Wrong again. Are you absolutely, positively sure? Jimmie is never wrong. Other people are wrong...when they disagree with Jimmie. The numbers I post here twice a month are those of current, unexpired FCC amateur licenses held by individuals. That's stated in each post. The word valid is not used to describe them. They are invalid numbers? They are invalid licenses? Jimmie loves wordplay, spending long hours at his old, faded computer, exercising his imaginary powers of CEO of the newsgroup. He's wasting lots of folks' time. |

From a North Korean defector who flew it to South Korea, was in display at a USAF base on Honshu. So in fact W3RV has seen more Soviet military aircraft than you..and he saw them in flight, crewed by non-defectors. I've seen Soviet aircraft without being overseas. I've seen them on RADAR penetrating CONUS airspace. Aeroflot? You've never been "IN" amateur radio, yet you want to tell us How It Should Be. When you merely want to exclude people??? I've no problem with him anything he might say to you with your kind of attitude. Jimmie needs to be newsgroup CEO. Not me, Len. I'm not the one telling people to shut up or go away. Getting to the heart of the matter, Jimmie feels TERRIBLY "insulted" when one doesn't like what Jimmie likes. Not true. You're the one who calls people names, and tells them to shut up if they don't agree with you. Jim calls them jackasses. I've never called anyone here a jackass. What I have done is describe some of their *behavior* as "jackass behavior". [he is regularly bringing up old, faded postings from Google as if to continue to "do battle" on those topics forever and ever] Gee, Len, you bring up even older and more faded stuff about Highly respected... defunct ham radio magazines and your experiences of a half-century ago. Every issue of QST has excerpts from half a century ago. I've never, ever, ever seen you complain. Ever. Half a page devoted to past issues of 25, 50, 75 years ago. Out of a magazine of well over 100 pages. And each month the information is different. Len tells the same tired stories over and over again. Why is it OK for you to rehash events of 20, 30, 50 years ago, but not OK for others to remind you of the events of 2 or 3 years past? Because you say it isn't OK for Len to remind you of events of 50 years ago, but never comment when the ARRL does it. Jimmie wants to rehash what I was "supposed to do" in Japan, Where do you get that. Len? Where did I ever say what you were supposed to do in Japan? Jimmie wants Total Agreement with his OPINIONS. If there is no Total Agreement, then dissention is "wrong," must be BANNED, shouted down, tarred and feathered, etc., etc. You just can't take strong opposition to your opinions, Len. Seems like a double standard on your part. Double-standard, indeed. That could be your middle name. I think it should be just "H" (for hypocrite). Len - *your* middle initial is "H". Mine isn't. Jimmie wants NUMBERS? He is regularly giving some sort of tabulation on the "valid licenses" of radio amateurs in the USA. No, I'm not. You're mistaken, Len. Wrong again. Are you absolutely, positively sure? On that point, yes. The numbers I post here twice a month are those of current, unexpired FCC amateur licenses held by individuals. That's stated in each post. The word valid is not used to describe them. They are invalid numbers? They are invalid licenses? They are current licenses - as opposed to expired licenses, cancelled licenses, revoked licenses. Jimmie loves wordplay, spending long hours at his old, faded computer, Gee, Len, your verbiage output here far exceeds mine. You seem to be describing yourself! exercising his imaginary powers of CEO of the newsgroup. He's wasting lots of folks' time. Do you want me to shut up, Len? |
