If you had to use CW to save someone's life, would that person die?
 

Yet as "chief operator" or ANCOIC of NMC MARS on Okinawa, he
remains
woefully ignorant of MARS. I just don't get it.

Uh, hello.... Looks like perfect qualifications for a management
position.

I like the way you think.

I usually try to avoid thought... it makes my head hurt...



Can't it be factory refurbished?

Funny thing... the stupid NASA Engineers tried to control the thing with
data bursts.... Yes, data bursts!
Can you believe those anti-CW nazis? We'd already be on Pluto if they'd
controlled it with CW.
So, sadly, no.... due to advanced technology, she's been lost....


I thought they were just to cover the beaches so the
Army doesn't get sand in their boots....

Welp, when the AF took the airplanes away from the Army in 1947...


Was it that late? I would've guess more around the late/end of the war...

Well anyway, I was just trying to stir up some jarheads with the
beaches/Army thing...

You wanna swap radios or anything?

Only robesin can tell us what kind of radio his craft carried, but even
he doesn't know.

You would have been right at home in the Morse Forever camp about 10
years ago.

I've got a lot of respect for both. Served with the 2ID at Casey, and
again with the marines and 10th mountain in somalia.

Probably not, but there is another group, rec.radio.amateur.equipment,
which is a lot like a hamfest. Except the food is better.

I'm just thinking this would be a great place for a radio swap group, that's
all.
Everything I say is usually in sarcasm.....just to add stupidity to the
stupidty....
I've given up though and I'm going back to ebay...

Big Ol' Kudos to you bro. Somalians suck. I think there are indeed places
that qualify as Fourth-world countries.
Somalia, Nigeria, etc... LOL..

Good on ya then! Do upgrade whenever you can, coz hammin' can be fun if you
can find a decent bunch to hang with.
Learning 5wpm is pretty easy and gives you a new "toy" or "language" to play
with if you are so inclined.
The big plus being the new privileges and theory, and all the hi-tech
progression in radio going on in the 21st Century!
There's lots to get into.
Gud luck,

Alright. List your stuff. Maybe someone is interested.

It sucked.

Just got a message on the somalia reflector today. Seems the al qaida
is well liked in somalia because the country has been through 15 years
of chaos and lawlessness, and the islamists are now imposing their law.
I guess any law is better than none.

Reminds me, in part, how hitler came to power.

Robesin's flight suit is sage green. Looks like a real one.

, and a male nurses uniform.

Wanna explain what a male nurses uniform is??

He said it wasn't a dress. Culots, maybe?

Thought he had a "killer" job as a male nurse?

Wow, that sounds rather condescending....

How else would you describe the best job in the world?

Oh, I don't know. After a hard day behind the microphone, he's got
that 1,000 yard stare.

Yeah, those "real" radio ops really have it tough, don't they? There should
be a reality show called
"Two-Way Trauma: Life in the radio room."

Hah!!! I'm sure he could make up stories. I'm real sure of it.

So did your guy die or not?

Which one? You win some, you lose some.

Huh? How can a fast CW op *not* save a life? Have you read this thread
at all?
CW = Gift of Life.
Fast CW = Hand of God.

Where did anyone actually say that in this thread?

It's in the Extra Class manual....

And that's why I'm watching TV from a 12ghz satellite signal right
now. Putting the antenna that high makes all modes pretty much equal
as far as signal-to-noise goes.

AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGH!!
Holy crap.... I hope no one else reads that.. It'll kill the entire
Comm-Post pile we're making, and then
people will just go back to swapping radios or something. [Perish the
thought!]

Well, at the moment my radio is on 3729 LSB. But it will shortly be on
3652 CW.

And I have to ask Dave, [and I mean seriously this time]... You really
aren't defending this thread [in this group] as
an intelligent discussion [or one that should even be here] in the
first place, are you?

Nope. It's not about antennas, so that makes it off topic in the group I'm
posting in.
