A lot can yes but there's also a lot of Amateurs who hold full licences who, for one reason or another, can't fix their radio. Fortunately, the ability to fix a radio is only one facet of Amateur Radio, and not a compulsory one at that. There are Amateurs about who don't do moonbounce or MFSK or aerial experimentation - Amateur Radio is a broad church. Absolutely which is why it amazes me so much "hype" is placed on Morse by the Higher Licence fraternity. It's a part of Amateur radio but theres so much more.......... There are plenty of search results on google or Yahoo or probably any other search engine you would care to name that would reveal appropriate information be it CB or Amateur for the repairman. It's a shame that there are those about - even with a broadband connection - who 'do not follow web links'. It's their loss. Yep....... theres a lot of interesting stuff out there just waiting to be found. It's a shame they just can't ask for help and everyone join in in a helpful discussion which is how it should be. Well, one chap asked for help concerning a problem with an FT-707, and received a number of helpful replies. It was a pity that he was the only user on ukra of that particular ISP to suffer an ISP failure and consequently never saw them. Presumably in those days he didn't know how to Google the archives. Strange world..... It surely is. I had a few replies to some of my questions direct to my mailbox as they didn't want to be shot down by some of the Preachers in here. There are a lot of helpful and intelligent people on Amateur and in the groups who don't like the actions of a few so rarely post and that is a great shame....
