JS, "crow" is too good for them.


Indeed. Perhaps Seven Hostile Actions Robesin could take a lesson
from the book, "King Rat."

Good grief, everyone is making out like that amateur license
test is a *TEST*.


It can be quite difficult for anyone without a background in
electronics and trig.

It isn't like a whole truckload of college
exams I've taken.


Correct, and it was all meaningless without the code exam... Hi!

It was 120 questions, multiple-choice,
done in three parts...on a Sunday afternoon in an old fire
house now housing part of the Los Angeles Auxilliary
Communications Service, managed by the LAFD. It was
all of a mile and a half from my house, across from a food
market (Ralphs - no apostrophe) where I've shopped for
43 years. Too bad it wasn't snowing or I would have
taken off my shoes like them olde-tymers did. It is
slightly downhill (by about 30 feet) to it, but it IS uphill
coming back.


The Old Tymers have stories about those who didn't make it back.
"Bridge Over The River Kwai" kind of stuff....

It wouldn't be so bad if there weren't all these sunsabishes
waiting in the bushes to say I'm a "newbie, tyro, beginner,
etc., etc. in radio." Jay-suss. They can't get a grip, can
they?


There's one who has nothing to grip, constantly envying all others
with accusations of "Putz."

Nah...business will return shortly to the usual in here...
like in a few minutes...
