Oh, my, Dannie boy finished a whole six-pack of Billy Beer and
now is feeling very "brave." Time for him to garbage-mouth
some veterans...

Poor Lennie the loser is a real trip. Military comms and CB radio.

And military VLF as a civilian...and military and civilian radio
as a civilian...and civilian maritime radio as a civilian...and
civilian mobile radio NOT CB as a civilian...plus lots of
microwave radio things for the government and civil life as a
civilian...leaving out civilian broadcasting as a civilian.

Then compares it to ham radio.

Couldn't possibly do the mighty, noble, top-of-the-line, cutting-
edge manual morse that the Archaic Radiotelegraphy Society does,
no sir!

Bottom line, the only thing they have in common
is the fact they operate on HF radio....period.

WRONGO, Mongo. VLF, LF, MF, HF, VHF, UHF, microwaves (assorted
bands) on up to 25 GHz.

Bottom line is he couldn't pass the CW test, and gave up.

You betcha, sweatbreath. WASTE OF TIME forty-six years ago.
Still a waste of time for me.

Still a waste of time for anyone who wants to enter the hobby
of amateur radio through FCC-regulated testing.

Now we get to
listen to him brag about shoving a broom around a transmitter site while a
lower ranked enlisted man. BIG DEAL.

Poor Dannie boy, drunk as a skunk and stinkier.

Dannie boy, you must stop ranking people according to YOUR
accomplishments.

"Lower ranked?" As an E-5, three up and one down, I was in the
lowest category of NCOs, true. Supervisor, not a broom pusher.

Speaking honestly, sweatbreath, I wouldn't put YOU in any QSY
or maintenance task back then in the early 1950s. The gear was
just too complex for someone who thinks the top-of-the-line in
radio is doing manual morse. Tsk.

Nobody did manual morse at ADA/RUAP back in the 1950s, Dannie.
TTY and RTTY. One had to read in order to put the right tapes
on the right machines. Reading would have been too difficult
for you. Tsk, tsk.

Let us know when you sober up...
