From the ARRL down, the higher-ups love to look down on aspirants as dummies in radio...as if their lofty elite positions made them "expert." These self-proclaimed gods of radio then wonder why there isn't more participation and - especially - why there's so little love for their self-righteous precious, noble, best-of-all-possible-modes (in their minds), radiotelegraphy. I move Best of Luck. Don't forget that the job's not finished until the paper work is done. that we amend our military regulations so that each recruit to the enlisted ranks would enter military service at the E-9 grade. This would result in more participation by our citizenry and would prevent harm to anyone's self-esteem. We could also do away with military technical schools and the necessity for passing any exam which the new recruit might view as hazing. Calling any recruit a "dummy" would be banned. Dave K8MN It looks like the World's Greatest DXer can't tell the diff between military service and a cool hobby. |
