I'm just thinking this would be a great place for a radio swap group, that's

I've got a lot of respect for both. Served with the 2ID at Casey, and

Big Ol' Kudos to you bro. Somalians suck. I think there are indeed places
that qualify as Fourth-world countries.
Somalia, Nigeria, etc... LOL..

Good on ya then! Do upgrade whenever you can, coz hammin' can be fun if you
can find a decent bunch to hang with.
Learning 5wpm is pretty easy and gives you a new "toy" or "language" to play
with if you are so inclined.
The big plus being the new privileges and theory, and all the hi-tech
progression in radio going on in the 21st Century!
There's lots to get into.
Gud luck,
rb

Alright. List your stuff. Maybe someone is interested.

It sucked.

Just got a message on the somalia reflector today. Seems the al qaida
is well liked in somalia because the country has been through 15 years
of chaos and lawlessness, and the islamists are now imposing their law.
I guess any law is better than none.

Reminds me, in part, how hitler came to power.

Robesin's flight suit is sage green. Looks like a real one.

, and a male nurses uniform.


Wanna explain what a male nurses uniform is??


He said it wasn't a dress. Culots, maybe?

Thought he had a "killer" job as a male nurse?


Wow, that sounds rather condescending....


How else would you describe the best job in the world?

Oh, I don't know. After a hard day behind the microphone, he's got

that 1,000 yard stare.


Yeah, those "real" radio ops really have it tough, don't they? There should
be a reality show called
"Two-Way Trauma: Life in the radio room."

Hah!!! I'm sure he could make up stories. I'm real sure of it.

Huh? How can a fast CW op *not* save a life? Have you read this thread
at all?
CW = Gift of Life.
Fast CW = Hand of God.


Where did anyone actually say that in this thread?

It's in the Extra Class manual....

And that's why I'm watching TV from a 12ghz satellite signal right
now. Putting the antenna that high makes all modes pretty much equal
as far as signal-to-noise goes.


AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGH!!
Holy crap.... I hope no one else reads that.. It'll kill the entire
Comm-Post pile we're making, and then
people will just go back to swapping radios or something. [Perish the
thought!]

Well, at the moment my radio is on 3729 LSB. But it will shortly be on
3652 CW.

aren't defending this thread [in this group] as
an intelligent discussion [or one that should even be here] in the
first place, are you?


Nope. It's not about antennas, so that makes it off topic in the group I'm

If you'll check the address bar when you reply, you might notice that you're
posting in a swap group, scanner group, policy group, and antenna group....
IOW, you're just as guilty as the rest of us. :-)

Who's gonna see a single want ad in 300 postings about nothing?
Who wants to pilfer 300 postings about nothing to find a sale ad?
On the Somalia thing,
Do you mean extremists/terrorists that claim to follow Islam, or just basic
Islamists?
It looks like you mean the former.

Please understand that Al Qaeda is a group of terrorists/extremists, it
doesn't matter what religion they
claim to follow.
