BM [K5QWG] - "Amateurs are not professionals..."
Most {The Majority} of Amateur {Ham} Radio Operators take "Their" Amateur Radio License as Personal Badge of Honor and it could be said that "They" view themselves as Hobbyist with a 'professional' Level of Technical Knowledge. - - - FWIW - IMHO - They Are Right [.] BM [K5QWG] - "And be easier to feed." Ah ! - Spoken like a True Amateur {Ham} Radio Operator. Speaking from the prospective of a Shortwave Listener (SWL) "The Wire(s)" connecting an Antenna (Wire Antenna Element) to the Radio {Receiver} are the Feed-in-Line : That which 'brings' the Radio Signal from the Antenna to the Radio. - - - Where as - The Amateur {Ham} Radio Operator 'thinks' of "The Wire(s)" connecting an Antenna to the Transmitter as the Antenna FEED : That which 'sends' the Radio Signal from the Transmitter to the Antenna. The Amateur {Ham} Radio Operator -vice- The Shortwave Listener (SWL) Two View Points : The Expertise of a Two-Way Communicator -vice- The Enjoyment of a Simple Radio Listener {Hobbyist} The-Bottom-Line - Shortwave {Radio} Listening (SWL) : it does not have to be technical to be enjoyable - iane ~ RHF FWIW - Just Keeping It Simple And Practical { KISAP :-} |
