I am a big fan of Degen and I hope to place my order for this radio the very first day it goes on sale. I was even more excited (or even awed) to see that the engineer who was responsible for two of the best radios this decade (Sat 800 and DE1103) was actually sharing his time and energy with us, and was even letting us, the listening and buying public, to help him design the best radio possible. But then the xenophobic ranting started. I was shocked at first, but I hoped that it was just a poorly executed cute remark that fell flat. But the rantings continued. And there was definitely nothing cute about it. It was intentionally mean, and I was horrified to realize that a fellow American and dxer would stoop to such ignorant and mean-spirited rantings. The thread then got too painful to read. I immediately blocked the offending poster, but the memory of his ignorant ranting still sticks in my craw. In fact, looking back, I can't even remember exactly who that hateful poster was. I think he was a regular here, but his postings no longer appear on my computer, so I can't be sure. I guess all you'd have to do would be to look at your kill file to get an idea of who it was then. Seems pretty darn simple to me. dxAce Michigan USA |
