Precisely. On amateur radio, one never knows when one will encounter
something which may make someone think twice about our hobby being
a wholesome and proper activity for a young person. When that happens,
whether or not what was said was "legal" within the letter of the law,
the
potential exists for the effect to bring the ARS "...one step closer to
extinction."
73 de Larry, K3LT
As long as you keep the froot-loops all
in one place then I see no problem.
For an example, the historically amusing ham
frequency of 14.313 MHz. is becoming alive again
with the sound of screwballs (..as opposed to the
sound of music) on the weekends like clockwork again.
You know it's gonna be there like Monday Night Football.
I have observed for 20+ yrs that as long as the screwballs, bootleggers
and kooks among our ranks KNOW where they
can go for their weekend dose of juvenile
amusement, they will gravitate to the same
and leave the rest of us *alone*. It's like the
red light district in town. Every medium city needs
one where the dregs of society can go to fulfill
their needs and perverse desires. 14.313 and one
or two freqs on 75 Meters do just that and act
as a steam poppet valve for the rest of the hobby.
Logical, ain't it?
