Those who make and sell products and/or services that you can decline to purchase by personal choice, or, those who will steal your money via taxation, and, if you refuse to pay can come and confiscate your worldly possessions by way of force/law? Have you ever heard of the phrase "checks and balances"? Do your homework, review the auto companies of the 1930s, before the unions came into being. There was a very good reason why the unions were needed, namely Capital's rampant abuse of Labor. Unions have had their share of excesses, as has Big Business (witness the current Great Recession, courtesy of Big Business greed). You NEED checks and balances. If the Repubs get their way and make the unions disappear, there will be no protection for labor, nothing, NOTHING to balance runaway greed. It's that simple -- unions, even with their imperfections, are needed to balance the greed of Capital. Again, do your homework and find out about all the abuses that took place before unions. Finally, you complain about "those who will steal your money via taxation". What are you saying? That you don't want taxes at all? That you only want some taxes? How much is too much? I don't know about you, but I -like- our libraries, paved roads, traffic lights, police and fire departments, all paid for by taxes. I presume your disability benefits are helpful to you. You can be against taxes, but make sure you don't shoot yourself in the foot. You really need to get out more! And, you really need to stop siding with the Liberal/Democrat/Marxist/Socialists. |

On 160 meters, I reconfigure the antenna to what is essentially a top loaded vertical, using a T-match tuner. Obviously not as good as a tower and beam, but I work lots o' DX with it, for example the VK0IR (Heard Island) dx'pedition and North Korea. (If you are not a ham, trust me, these are nice catches). Needless to say, it also works nicely for SWL'ing with my vintage receivers. A tower would be nice, but not worth the hassle of dealing with the (overly) strict city and subdivision restrictions.

And particularly for MW Dx. I'm tempted to do it here. Well, it won't hurt to try it... Your buddy says it is a quiet antenna. Compared to what? It is commonly acknowledged that noise is more vertically polarized and thus a vertical antenna is a bit noisier than a horizontal antenna like a dipole. I really don't think the dipole I described is any quieter than any other dipole AFAIK. The reason I used the antenna was mostly because of its benefits when transmitting. With the tuner and the ladder line feed, it will operate on many bands with relatively low line loss. For SWL'ing, I'm not sure if it would have any particular benefit.

The U.S. is able to use a tool called "economic protectionism", but in Europe, none of this is possible... In the U.S., the government finances in a direct or indirect way industries, in Europe we decided that it is bad... In some ways, Europe is far more orthodox (economically speaking) than the U.S. This results in an absence of flexibility (in Europe). Everybody stays in his position and people suffer from the lack of imagination from their political leaders... Sebastien. |

The-Mark-of-the-Obama© = $6.66 Gasoline : Crashing The US Economy Do you know why cars in Europe drink less gasoline? Because the governments forced the car makers to make them less thirsty. Do you know how? By raising the price of gasoline adding taxes... A higher price on gasoline makes cars less thirsty.... At the end you pay the same price for an equal distance but you better manage oil resources and reject less **** in the air. Sebastien. |

Looka here, I am a Dummy, and a Dumb Dummy at that.
AT&T U-Verse crap.I haven't signed any paper(s) on that.AT&T to install that crap for me on Monday, March 7, 2011. My paper the guy at that AT&T retail store (about two blocks South of doggy's couch) handed me yesterday afternoon when I was over thar.It says, AT&T U-Verse TV $84/Month. AT&T U-Verse Internet $47.00/Month. AT&T U-Verse Voice Voice Unlimited $39.95 Month. What the Hell!, I don't need that sheet.I can't really afford it anyway, I am po. What is AT&T Voice Unlimited? I rarely ever use my AT&T land line phone. But, (like I was telling doggy just now) I wonder how AT&T TV compares to my DirecTV? I am paying for, abouts $82.00 every month. I think doggy would tell me, WOOF WOOF! , you better git your arse back over thar to that AT&T store and CANCEL that sheet, before you screw up Big Time! Metinks doggy is 100 percent Exactly Right. cuhulin |

If you have special needs, Uverse may not be for you...although many DSL services are indeed ADSL too, giving you the same problem. Not really. Of all the options I've investigated, in areas where I have visited...except the cabin in Wisconsin...U-Verse is the slowest by far for the money. For the same money, 1MB up and 3MB down from Comcast. On a private radius. For work, I need at least 3 MB up in order to upload a project to meet deadlines. I've got business class service for that reason, which replaced my T-1 last year. U-Verse only offered 384k up on a common node. There are better options to U-Verse. Not in all locations, of course, but in populated areas, for the same money, you can get much more performance with fewer headaches.

Whoops! Monsanto Develops Pesticide Resistant Super Weeds
I took doogy's ADDvice.Around 12:30 PM this afternoon, I went to the
Goodwill store and then I back tracked to the AT&T store.A very nice lady by the name of Paula Kelly (she is as skinny as skinny twin sister is, maybe even skinnier and pretty too) AT&T Home Consultant (she gave me her card) lady.Paula Kelly helped me Unass/Cancel all of that AT&T set up appointment, it took about half an hour or more to git er done. Thank you Paula Kelly,,, you are a Real Sweatheart. Heh, they were probally cussin me out when I left the store. But I don't know, I still wants to buy me a real shonuff 1080 DPI (whatever it is, dots per inch) HDTV set at one of the Cowboy Maloney stores around here.Maybe in a couple of months or three or four,,,,,, http://www.cowboymaloney.com cuhulin, CANCEL |
Whoops! Monsanto Develops Pesticide Resistant Super Weeds
Yeah, in fact of the business,,, ask Philip Swann at
http://www.tvpredictions.com A LOT of people think they are getting real HDTV, but they are not. cuhulin |

Why do you recommend against it? Way too much money. I get Time-Warner Clear QAM broadcast basic for $20 a month. My DSL is $35 a month (fees included) for "Elite" (5 Mbps). Netflix is $12 a month. The phone is around $16 a month (measured service). This is $17 a month less than the U-verse introductory deal. I am only one, maybe 2 people. I got no need for 4 DVRs (or even one). TV is for morons. |
