The problem here is that you are not "full on."

You ARE a troll. Have another cocktail, Sparky.

Or smoke another joint before posting.

I haven't smoked a joint in years.

You can't fool me. You smoke pot all the time.

That's not true. I smoke a tiny sliver in the morning in a one-hit
hash pipe. Then a tiny sliver at lunch, then a tiny sliver after
work. I make an eigth (3.5) gm last a couple weeks. I am doing this
completely legally by authority of doctor's recommendation and the
complete blessing of the state of California. If you don't like it,
move to friggin' Ohio.

So do the people at work nickname you the "one hit wonder?"

How you go about harming yourself is your business and not mine but I
do have this very strong motivation for self preservation that I tend
to extend to the people I interact with. An example would be if I was
behind you in the street and you were about to step off the curb in
front of a truck you didn't notice. I would probably grab you by the
collar and pull you back reflexively without even thinking about it.
Your being a good guy or say a lawyer would not be a part of the
equation.

So let me as crystal clear about this pot smoking you do. The damage is
cumulative and lasts years. Smoking it has got to be the worst way to
abuse pot because along with the cumulative damage to your brain is the
tar in your lungs. You get more lung damage with pot than tobacco.

So get off the pot and the other prescriptions from that doctor/pusher
you have as a dealer. You will feel better, think better, and lose the
paranoia and depression.

It's legal to get falling down drunk but not legal to smoke pot. Go figure.

It is not legal to be either in a public place or legal to be under the

I admit no such thing. Under the 10th amendment the United States has
no right to regulate what I smoke. The entire operation takes place
within the confines of the California Republic. There is no federal
jurisdiction.

I do not work at a TV station. I work for TV producers. They only
care about the quality of my work, which is impeccable.

If I did not use cannibus I would be on narcotics for my chronic pain,
and that would be very problematic.

If the pot is killing me it's taking its sweet time. I've been

job hunting since ****head Reagan and his **** fetish test).

Anyone reading your posts can tell that you are a long time drug abuser
so you imagine the impression that aspect of your life must make in

You could not work where I work because you would fail the drug testing.

It does not matter what the drug is if you act intoxicated in a public

Nonsense. They can only test you when they offer you a job, and
anybody with any brains quits smoking dope when job hunting.

You must be. I've had excellent results with the R75 and quite modest
antennas on a small lot in one of the most RFI- and QRM-polluted
environments I can imagine short of the inside of an electronics
factory. The radio is sensitive, selective, not prone to images, and
delivers under less-than-optimum circumstances.

My experience with it is just great, and I have no hesitation in
recommending it as a good $1k choice.

Bruce Jensen

The R75 is quite nice. The E1 is very good for a portable. In fact
outstanding in comparison with other portables. To have both is a very good
setup imo. To have either is a bargain!

Bill

That's how I've always felt too, about both of these receivers.
Contrary to what some folks seem to feel, adding the Kiwa mods was no
big deal on the R75, and it lets me hear everything I want to hear
quite well. I'd love to try the Eton one of these days.
