Worldband vs. Shortwave on Google Trends
Helpful hint for the day:
Before responding it helps to read messages you are responding to in their entirety. Once you have mastered that skill others will be able to understand why you write the things that you do.

How many THOUSAND more hams would there be right NOW if the dumbasses (you know who you are) that have fought dropping the pathetically obsolete requirement for Morse hadn't been so short-sighted? Morse is a wonderful thing. Seriously. I know it to be true. But driving it down the throats of people that have no interest in it = insane. Like requiring a 747 pilot to be fully competent with the operation of Sopwith Camel. Very cool stuff, but how is it related to what they intend to do? More hams would have had the effect of drawing more attention to HF. What ham hasn't introduced family, friends and even strangers to HF listening in one way or another? More hams = more "evangelists" for the hobby. /bitching done for now //misses the BBC broadcasts to North America ///afraid that all HF as we know it will soon be a thing of the past Times change Roadie wrote: On Jan 29, 12:35 pm, wrote: That reflects what most of us know - there is less and less to hear on the HF bands and there are fewer and fewer people tuning in. The shortage of messages even remotely related to shortwave on rec.radio.shortwave is yet another indicator of how shortwave radio has changed.- Hide quoted text -- Show quoted text - |
