There's a lot of personality, here, too. Truth is, Roy has most of
it. But if Roy chooses to make a career out of participating in this
group....so what? If he's got the time and the resources....God
Bless him.

The question is....what does it matter to YOU?


+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
It matters because his compulsive posting of irrelevant bs has driven
away many shortwave enthusiasts who visit daily and contribute
regularly to the group. Most no longer bother to even read the group
much less post because they have long ago tired of the little clique
of posters who now dominate the group.

It's like the friendly neighborhood bar that everyone that mattered
once enjoyed gathering that gets taken over by a few obnoxious
drunks. The change in atmosphere is almost imperceptible because it
happens over time. One by one the regulars stop dropping in and soon
the only patrons are the obnoxious loud mouthed few and the bar soon
goes bankrupt.

So yes, it matters sir.




Then you serious need to refocus your priorities. If you can be
run off by one poster's style...I'm guessing shortwave wouldn't be
your best choice of avocation.


The question for you Peter, is why do posters like Roy, Burr, Steve
and others get a pass from you when they are the source for most of
the OT garbage on this group? My guess is that you secretly support
their politics and world views but don't want to admitt it here. You
didn't use to be like that in the good old days. You made mostly
useful contributions and rarely responded to the OT posts. Now you
almost encourage them. What happened?
(Hint: 'nothing happened' is not an acceptable answer)




Yeah, back in the 40's, I was quite the stickler for the rules. You
know, back in the good ol' days, Univac, tube routers, and secret
messages over AM radio to subversive forces identified only with
decoder rings....I was all about the topic, wasn't I.

Wow. Even I don't recognize me anymore. Perhaps that's why I can't
get laid.

Well, time for some new flannel shirts, eh?



:::::Hmmm....I wonder where the dog is......::::


Nice dodge. I guess the answer is yes, you do agree with them and that's
why they get a pass for disrupting the group with their BS.

BTW- The dog abandoned this group too. You can find him at one of the
Yahoo groups.




Actually, she died. But thanks.

The point is, your question has no valid answer, so I'm not going to
bother providing one. Nor, since you seem to be fine carrying on both
sides of the conversation, is there any need for me to do so.

If you go back and read the history, and read it closely, you'll see
that the premise of your question is incorrect on it's face.

"Nothing happened" not being an acceptable answer is an interesting
condition. Because the truth is: Nothing happened.

Ditto too, and RHF, you're OK in my book - I may not always agree with
your politics (but sometimes do), but there is no shame at all in your
postings about radios, antennas and equipment, or how to use them.
The feebs who have criticized? �I doubt if they know a kilowatt from a
kilocycle.

Some bozo who constantly yammers on, posting when he usually has little
to say, posting links rather than real comments, posting in a completely
unreadable style, constantly changing subject headers, playing
"moderator" when his skill is so horrific that it only makes things
worse, and being a big source of the animosity here, well that defines
the state of the newsgroup. �"RHF" isn't the only one, but he certainly
enables the other junk posters.

Wade through the off topic posts, the political bickering and admonishments,
and there isn't much here. �Far better for the yammerers to be silent for
a time than to constantly spew. �And yes, you will see three or four
posters, including the bozo "RHF", in the thick of all that drivel.

There was a time when if someone asked a simple question, they'd be
told to look it up themselves. �But nowadays, this newsgroup is full
of people who do that work for the lazy, merely posting links. �And
when people do that, who's to know whether they know anything or not?
There is no value in posting such links, because the original poster
should be doing that work themselves. �But instead, we get all these
link posters, and nobody around to really address the question that
may not be properly asked.

The only reason this bozo RHF is getting accolades is because
the newsgroup has decayed so much that many have left, and a new
wave that doesn't know better has moved in. �SOmeone who can't keep
his mouth shut is bound to dominate a newsgroup, and that's what people
are reacting to. �Look between the lines, and there is little of substance
there, and the only reason he becomes a "valuable source" is because the
good posters of the old days have faded away, so there's nothing better
than a bozo posting links.

A newsgroup is not healthy if only a handful dominate. �Drive off a wide
range of readers, and the newsgroup declines, because as long as people
are reading a newsgroup, they may reply when they actually have something
to add, so some obscure topic gets a real answer instead of another
stupid link. �Or that person who only replies a few times a year may
have some obscure bit of knowledge that few know, so if they tune out,
there goes the knowledge.

It's telling that the bozo RHF never looks things up in this newsgroup,
he's constantly linking to other sources of information.

This is what the newsgroup used to be like, before the bozos and the village
idiots took over:

I am considering buying a new World Band reciever;

choice of triple conversion receiver;

How many conversions a receiver has is not a direct indication of
performance.

The whole point of superheterodyne receivers is to get the incoming
signal to a frequency where amplification and selectivity can
easily be accomplished.

The superhet is something like 80 years old, which is barely younger
than radio itself. When it was invented, the state of the technology
could only mean that the superhet would convert to a lower frequency.
It was easier to get amplification there, and since it was a fixed
frequency as opposed to variabl4e frequency if amplification took
place on the signal frequency, you wouldn't need constant readjustment.
Selectivity may have been a mere byproduct; �I know I've seen early
schematics of superhets where provides no selectivity, only amplification.
Of course, with time, selectivity became an important reason for
the superhet.

But once the superhet was invented, it became clear that there was
a problem. �In the conversion to another frequency, the IF (Intermediate
Freuqency), you'd also get an image frequency. �Basically, that
meant that anywhere you tuned the receiver, you would pick up two
signals, the one you want and one that was a side effect of the conversion.

With the relatively low frequencies used for the IFs in the early days,
the only way to get rid of the unwanted image frequency was to put
more selectivity on the signal frequency, which in some ways
the superhet was supposed to eliminate. �Usually there was no
problem in the �AM broadcast band, and even in the low shortwave
bands, because relatively simple front end selectivity could give
enough rejection of the image frequency. �But a lot of cheap
receivers from the old days bombed on the highest band, the one
that ended at 30Mhz, because there was way too little selectivity
in the front end to get rid of the image frequency.

Of course, the more expensive receivers did put more selectivity
in the front end, and suffered far less. �The HRO series were
manufacturered up into the sixties (or was it the late fifties?),
and they still had a 455KHz IF. �But they had two RF stages and
associated tuned circuits to get rid of the image frequency.

With time, somebody thought of the idea of double conversion. �Convert
the incoming signal to a frequency high enough that it would place
the image frequency far enough away that the front end would reject
it sufficiently, and then a second conversion to a frequency
where the real amplification and selectivity could take place. �Of
course, if the design wasn't done right, it could be horrible since
you now had two sets of image frequencies to get rid of, and of course
you added a second oscillator inside the receiver to generate
spurious signals.

Triple conversion was just an extension of that, though in some cases
it was used to add special features.

One of the problems of double, or triple, conversion is that in
that era it put a fair amount of amplification before the ultimate
selectivity of the receiver. �So the tuned circuits before the
final IF would take out the image frequency, but a strong signal not
that far from the desired signal would pass without attenuation,
and if it was strong enough it could overload one of the stages.

With time, technology allowed for a different implementation of
the superhet. �You could have good selectivity at a high frequency,
and of course tubes and later transistors got good enough that
they could amplify with no problem at high frequencies.

So there was a move back to single conversion receivers, with
the IF in the 9MHz range, or thereabouts. �The IF was far
enough away that only the strongest signals on the image frequency
could get by relatively simple front end selectivity. �And the
selectivity could be put right after the mixer, meaning that all
the rest of the receiver saw only the bandwidth of a single "channel".
The mixer was still vulnerable to overload, though there were
improvements in that area around the same time, but at least it
was reduced to only one mixer. �And in many cases the high IF
allowed for no amplification before the mixer, again helping
the receiver's overload resistance.

Of course, there were problems. �Having the IF in the middle of
the range the receiver was trying to tune was a problem. �And those
crystal filters could be expensive.

With time, mainly when ICs allowed for cheap synthesizers so the
local oscillator could operate at a high frequency and still be
stable, the first IF moved up above the 30MHz. �The whole shortwave
band could then be tuned without a gap, and there were other
good reasons for moving the IF there.

The problem was that a filter at 45MHz or so could be terribly
expensive, and it might even be difficult to get narrow selectivity
in that range.

So receivers moved back to double conversion. �The filter at the first
IF would be little wider than the widest selectivity desired, so
the rest of the receiver would have to deal with a relatively small
slice of spectrum. �And the IF was high enough that virtually
anything in the way of front end selectivity would reject the image
frequency, allowing for quite a bit of flexibility in the front
end design. �Of course, the overload resistance of the mixer
became an issue as the selectivity decreased in the front end; �it
had always been a problem, but image rejection had been a more
immediate need for that front end selectivity.

And of course, triple conversion also returned. �But it was for
things like passband tuning, rather than to deal with limited
technology.

The point to all this is that conversion is a trade-off. Triple conversion
will give you pass band tuning, but if not done carefully will give
you spurious responses. �But that triple conversion is giving you
a feature, better to be assesed on the basis of that feature, rather
than as an absolute. �If you wanted to pay the high price, a single
conversion receiver with a bank of filters of various bandwidths
operating at 45MHz or so would probably be best, since you don't
have to worry about the problems of multiple conversion. �But
people want multiple bandwidths and lower cost, so you end up
with double conversion receivers. �Likewise, they want poassband
tuning, so they end up with triple conversion.

But you can't compare two receivers by looking at how many conversions,
and say this one is better than that one because it has double (or triple
conversion). �You have to look at the overall design, and the specs.

As for scanners, that someone brought up in this thread, the need
for multiple conversions is a reflection of the wide frequency;coverage
that many of them provide, and the multiple conversions could be
seen in the same light as multiple conversions in receivers of
yesteryears. �They need it to get rid of the image frequencies.
The technology hasn't caught up enough with the needed range.

� � Michael


OK. This post requires temporary de-cloaking!

Will you please consider distributing to the group whatever you're
obviously on?

You start off complaining about RHF and people posting links, then you
cite a silly post from DiverDan about selecting a cheap portable as
being what this group should aspire to, and ramble into the most
esoteric post I think I've ever read on receiver design.

Wow. That's impressive. Can you say "tangential"?

After leaving this zoo for over 2.5 years (except for a few minor
incursions) I think I can say with certainty that though people like
Steve Lare (DXAce) and Roy Fisk (RHF) are often difficult to deal
with, they are clearly the most valuable contributors in RRS. Lare's
contributions to DXLD and BDXC are valuable resources in the
international DX community and his links to EiBi updates invaluable in
this post-ILG world. RHF's tireless efforts to disseminate antenna
info through his Yahoo group is a MONUMENTAL service to the community.
I don't like their politics, but they help keep this hobby alive in
difficult times. Yeah, they probably shouldn't post when drunk, but
none of the rest of us are really perfect, either.

Anyone who really believes these people are hurting the hobby by
providing useful links is someone the hobby would probably be better
off without.

Who knows? Maybe, if I stay away long enough, I'll gain the
perspective to understand what Telamon's contribution to the hobby
really is. Right now, I haven't got the faintest concept of why anyone
would read his posts.... ;-)

Re-cloaking,

Why not just post a link to the Google results page, instead of posting
each individual site?

Why not follow rules for punctuation? Those of us with licenses know
the rules require that communications be as clear as possible, in the
interest of keeping monkey chatter to a minimum.

(Now, Google "monkey chatter" for everyone.)

I can go back 5 years and find the same RHF posts.

What's so wrong with posting individual URLs? If you aren't interested
in the info, why bother clicking on it? Newbies, the ones that might
benefit the most from such actions, may not understand how to properly
conduct a wide-ranging search. Sometimes the search engines bury you
in URLs unrelated to what you're looking for. Castigating RHF and
DXAce simply because they post links seems to be focusing negativity
on the MOST USEFUL things those guys do in here. You'd think that you,
more than most, would be encouraging these guys to spend more time
posting links instead of ridiculing YOU daily.

Punctuation? I teach public speaking and I find that most people that
even try to have perfect grammar are suffering from delusions
regarding their own self-grandeur. Understandability is the key and I
don't have any problem understanding what RHF is trying to say. He may
not be the best speller in the world, but his efforts at disseminating
antenna info hardly are suffering from any non-standard spelling or
punctuation. There are many contributors in here with good punctuation
and spelling, but nothing of any real value to read.

If you go back five years, you'll see that RHF was posting DIFFERENT
links back then. To be honest, I think the quality of his links has
improved significantly. To be honest, going back three years doesn't
show a whole lot of evolution transpiring in your posts. Talk about
"monkey chatter"....

To be honest, RRS is infinitely better than it was in the mid-90s. The
racists and neo-Nazis that use to make about half the posts in here
have disappeared. If you don't like RRS, there are now plenty of other
places (with moderation!) where you can get info.

Do you really believe, David, that your own posts convey as much
valuable info as do at least some of the posts of Steve and Roy? I'm
truly sorry that you've been picked on as much as you have, but your
posts are NOT the reason I've been reading this RRS without posting.

Your reference to the "big boys" reveals that you are a frightened
blustering ****, who must compensate by acting tough and macho. People
like you are the reason for the collapse of modern civilization. So
****ing insecure, so afraid to be characterized as sensitive, you
swagger right off the cliff.

Nobody in his right mind would live in Michigan.

Why not follow rules for punctuation? Those of us with licenses know
the rules require that communications be as clear as possible, in the
interest of keeping monkey chatter to a minimum.

(Now, Google "monkey chatter" for everyone.)

I can go back 5 years and find the same RHF posts.
What's so wrong with posting individual URLs? If you aren't interested
in the info, why bother clicking on it? Newbies, the ones that might
benefit the most from such actions, may not understand how to properly
conduct a wide-ranging search. Sometimes the search engines bury you
in URLs unrelated to what you're looking for. Castigating RHF and
DXAce simply because they post links seems to be focusing negativity
on the MOST USEFUL things those guys do in here. You'd think that you,
more than most, would be encouraging these guys to spend more time
posting links instead of ridiculing YOU daily.

Punctuation? I teach public speaking and I find that most people that
even try to have perfect grammar are suffering from delusions
regarding their own self-grandeur. Understandability is the key and I
don't have any problem understanding what RHF is trying to say. He may
not be the best speller in the world, but his efforts at disseminating
antenna info hardly are suffering from any non-standard spelling or
punctuation. There are many contributors in here with good punctuation
and spelling, but nothing of any real value to read.

If you go back five years, you'll see that RHF was posting DIFFERENT
links back then. To be honest, I think the quality of his links has
improved significantly. To be honest, going back three years doesn't
show a whole lot of evolution transpiring in your posts. Talk about
"monkey chatter"....

To be honest, RRS is infinitely better than it was in the mid-90s. The
racists and neo-Nazis that use to make about half the posts in here
have disappeared. If you don't like RRS, there are now plenty of other
places (with moderation!) where you can get info.

Do you really believe, David, that your own posts convey as much
valuable info as do at least some of the posts of Steve and Roy? I'm
truly sorry that you've been picked on as much as you have, but your
posts are NOT the reason I've been reading this RRS without posting.

I know I'm way less rude than DX Asshole. I know that proper
punctuation facilitates easier communications, especially for the
visually impaired. I know that throwing up a bunch of information, some
of it contradicting other of it, is not as helpful as when someone
speaks from personal experience.

I am not the subject. RHF has been turned into a filter. I don't
bother w/ Ace as he is too drunk to type more than a few words at a time.

Any effort I made to stave off fascism was done in the interests of
preventing the demise of the freedom required for this hobby to
flourish. HF radios are illegal in many places. My only regret is that
we patriots failed and that the USA is a goddam police state.


Rickets, you wouldn't know a 'patriot' even if said 'patriot' crawled up your
ass and decided to spend the winter.

You're nothing more than a debutante, malcontent, faux little SOB who cares
little or nothing about SW radio.

Now go listen to your satellite 'radio', and leave the real stuff to the big
boys.

You're projecting, Rickets.

Nobody, or just a drug addled idiot such as yourself?
