I've used RST products and found them to be "good stuff". But you're presently posting tacit support for a known liar and cheat in a public forum using your company name. Sure, he knows his way around the bench, but he's a liar and a cheat none-the-less. I don't give a rat's kazoo what you think of me persoanlly or my opinions, but the fact remains that you're putting your company's name behind a guy who lies for sport. Is that wise? Steve, K4YZ |

Len Anderson is a sidewalk superintendent to amateur radio. That's pretty impressive, Jim. You've been involved in quite a number of things in and out of amateur radio. Even if I was an "Internationally acknowledged expert in the subject of hidden antennas", I don't think I could bring myself to so describe myself. Aside from your not including attributions, not signing your post and the top posting, you even manage to present some of your ideas here in a reasonable manner. My own credentials have been "on the table" for nearly a decade here in r.r.a.p. One of those taking a knife to them on a regular basis is Leonard H. Anderson. He has routinely insulted my employment, experience in radio (amateur, commercial and government), my authorship of amateur radio articles and even my German surname. I can't claim that I'm special in that regard though. Len does similar things to anyone who disagrees with him. It is curious that a fellow such as you would make the blanket statement that you did. Now I just question your judgment. Dave Heil K8MN |

He has no real interest in the issue since he's made up his mind that the FCC is against his precious Morse Code exam. His only purpose now is to try to discredit his primary antagonist before he departs RRAP for Coslo's exclusive BBS. amusing and sad how he and other go on Len's lack of license but are still vitaly concerned about what he may say Yep. They protest too loudly, drawing the attention to Len's words which might otherwise not attract so much attention. ...in one way that's good...in another, bad... :-) Have you seen the new thread where James points out Len being uncomfortable with children participating in what Len believes to be a primarily adult activity? Hi! Tsk, tsk, tsk...I think Jimmie-James is all for children VOTING in elections! Or perhaps, it is okay for children having state drivers' licenses...maybe it being okay for them to go into liquor stores to buy alcohol without age limit...or serving in armed forces of the United States (like Jimmie Noserve)...get married...piloting aircraft with legal license to do so in his age-limit-less world? James P. Miccolis has NOT answered a repeated question: How many children has HE parented? He won't say, doesn't answer. That's NOT the real subject of Jimmie-James' efforts. He is still ****ed at being confronted with opposite opinions in here by those who will not accept HIS opinions. He MUST re-argue and re-argue and re-argue old, Old, OLD issues from years back. Maybe he hopes to "win" an old argument that way? I don't think so. If the Muppets need a new character, I'd nominate him as "Miss ****y." :-) Meanwhile, Jimmie-James keeps up his "Philly-tuff" personna asking me if I'm "afraid" of anothers' tally on WT Docket 05-235. :-) NPRM 05-143 is *THE* issue for U.S. amateur radio in this new millennium. This is the end of the 15th week of filings in WT Docket 05-235 and the total is (to 27th October) 3,174 total. That's roughly 209 filings a week average, about four times more than on 98-143 ("Restructuring") in its 11 month open comment period. Brian, you've posted (I have a copy along with others from rrap who've filed on WT Docket 05-235) and so have others. But, for all his macho morsemanship, neither James P. Miccolis nor the mighty morsemen regulars in here have NOT filed! Sunnuvagun! |

He keeps alluding to MARS duty and I did spend time operating a MARS circuit from Tan Son Nhut, but only in an off duty capacity. Then there's Len's commentary on the military service of a Cost Guard radio operator who posted here..... I can't claim that I'm special in that regard though. Len does similar things to anyone who disagrees with him. Also anyone who points out a mistake he makes or proves him wrong about anything. ...or, come to think of it, anyone who even questions his methods or motivation. That's self-evident from his reaction to my questions. Here's another fun quote from Len, made two years ago today: Len wrote: "Shut the hell up, you little USMC feldwebel. Learn to READ English. Ah yes. That was directed at me, wasn't it? Yes, it was. I was never in the Marine Corps. Neither was Len, but he uses phrases like "murine" and "dill sergeant" to make fun of a certain Marine...

Len's description of what it was like to be under artillery fire--even though he was never actually under artillery fire. Never having experienced something hasn't prevented Len from expressing opinions, comments and criticism about it. That brings us back to RST Jim. It is apparent that he's done a number of things in amateur radio. Perhaps he hasn't been around long enough to see who and what Len Anderson is. Maybe his agenda in defending Len is something entirely different. Perhaps he'll explain. I'll be around after the CQ WW SSB DX 'test. Perhaps a few more quotes from Len would be helpful... 73 de Jim, N2EY |
Another Len Quote
Novice 1967 (age 13)
Same age. 2nd Class Commercial Radiotelephone 1972 1st Class Commercial Radiotelephone 1964 (age 17), Radar Endorsement Coinventer US patent #5,358,202 I quit the company and the boss got the patent designations from my notebooks, but I'm not going to press the issue. However, designated responsible engineer for FCC type acceptance/certification on seven commercial two-way transceivers; two for studio-transmitter links and five for aircraft transceivers. Currently on the "approved" list for type acceptance/certification for FCC Laurel Laboratories. That's pretty impressive, Jim. You've been involved in quite a number of things in and out of amateur radio. Even if I was an "Internationally acknowledged expert in the subject of hidden antennas", I don't think I could bring myself to so describe myself. Well, if you had sold ten thousand (actual count may vary a few percent) hidden antenna original design products everywhere from Latvia to Louisiana, you may describe yourself that way. Aside from your not including attributions, What do you mean by attributions? I'll give proof of anything I've said. not signing your post I thought I signed it Jim. If you want a full formal signing, it is Jim Weir, WX6RST. Most people know who I am; I don't hide behind a pseudonym. and the top posting, In the vernacular, go screw yourself. I'll top post, interleave post, or bottom post, whichever I think will get the point across better. "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of small minds." Or, in the Latin, "Pusca, puscalorum." you even manage to present some of your ideas here in a reasonable manner. It is the engineer showing through the politician. That slipped my mind. Len has taken numerous shots at my Air Force service in Vietnam, though he doesn't seem to know what it is that I did there. He keeps alluding to MARS duty and I did spend time operating a MARS circuit from Tan Son Nhut, but only in an off duty capacity. I have only the highest regard for anybody who wore the uniform. It was not my privilege to do military duty as my parents neatly sandwiched me in between Korea and Vietnam. Sure, I did MARS duty for twenty years, and sure, I wear the local sheriff's Search and Rescue volunteer uniform, but it pales in weak comparison to actual military duty. I bow my head in gratitude. Here's another fun quote from Len, made two years ago today: Then there's his classic "sphincters post", but you get the general idea. $#!+, we all get into the bottle from time to time and post stuff that we regret in the morning, but what the hell. Two quotes from two years? Give the guy a break. I'd hate (although my political opponents have done it mercilessly) to be quoted two years after the fact and have to defend myself at that time. That brings us back to RST Jim. It is apparent that he's done a number of things in amateur radio. Who is "he's". Me? Len? You? Steve? ???? And don't worry about RST. It has been around since 1973 and will probably be around long after you and I are SK. Don't worry about it. I have the cojones to put my reputation and my company's reputation on the line when I see something that just cries for comment. Perhaps he hasn't been around long enough to see who and what Len Anderson is. Maybe his agenda in defending Len is something entirely different. Perhaps he'll explain. I'll be around after the CQ WW SSB DX 'test. If you are talking about me, I've been on the usenet and this ng since 1995. I don't claim to defend Len, but again, most of what he says makes perfect sense. It is YOU TWO that I'm worried about. Jim |

But I'm not "all for children VOTING in elections". I'm just opposed to a minimum age requirement for an amateur radio license. Jim in answering the post I am afraid you just lied above Where? Len uses multiple names in his posts. I'm not sure who he means by "Jimmie-James". Is it me, or Jim Weir (who posts as "RSTEngineering") or somebody else? If he means me, *why* can't he just call me Jim, or N2EY? And it's a fact that I'm not "all for children VOTING in elections". I'm just opposed to a minimum age requirement for an amateur radio license. Or perhaps, it is okay for children having state drivers' licenses... I don't think it's okay for children to have driver's licenses. I'm just opposed to a minimum age requirement for an amateur radio license. and Len supports the notion at this point Why? Can he or anyone else supply *ANY* evidence that the lack of an age requirement has had *any* negative effects on the amateur radio service? We've had licensed amateur radio in the USA for 93 years now. In all that time there has *never* been an age requirement. So if the lack of an age requirement is a problem, there should be plenty of evidence by now. Yet Len provides no evidence, but wants an age requirement of 14 years for anyone to have a US amateur license. If you look at FCC enforcement letters, the age of the worst offenders is much closer to Len's age than to 14 years.... I neither support nor oppose such a notion, Why don't you oppose it? It's a completely unnecessary requirement for a license. No evidence has been presented to support it. |
