The draw of the internet and cell phones has taken its toll on the numbers
of ham radio operators; ironically, the number of newsgroup spammers and
trolls may lead some of the ex-hams back to the radio.

The internet is not for children. If you don't have a decent spam
filter on your email--shame on you. If you don't have a decent spam
filter on your newsreader, shame on you.

If you think your definition of a troll is everyone elses' think
again--some define troll as, "Does not agree with me."

Go figure ...

I spent the weekend setting poles in 24 degree temps and fresh snow
and running wire to construct two new Beverage antennas (800
footers)... Not all done yet, but getting there... My S/N ratio is
perfect...
