Default Would you join the ARRL if you found out they were only interested in selling memberships?


Welcome to the new world of ham radio. That'll be thirty-nine dollars
and here's your complimentary QST and CB radio.

SC;

Do you have any positive proof of what you are saying here? If you do
post them or drop the topic.

I'm afraid that you can't order SC around that way. He's a *real* 20
wpm extra, whereas you're only a nickel extra. Show some respect or
else get off Usenet.


Respect has to be earned. That comes from a person's actions and what they
say, not from the fact that they possess a particular mechanical skill
(Morse in this case). So far SC had said and done very little to gain
anyone's respect; quite the opposite in fact; continual spamming of this
news group with bigoted off-topic garbage.

[end of bad attributions]


If you bothered to read my post there were NO attributions at all , just
quotes from the previous message in the thread that required no attribution.
So none of them were "Bad".

Is your name David? Do you think that he can't supply his own
answers, so you'll do it for him?


No my name is not David, as it clearly said at the end of the message. I was
not replying on David's behalf, merely commenting on the fact that respect
is not something that comes merely with an ability or a qualification; it
has to be earned by words and deeds. SC has not demonstrated anything here
that would earn respect; quite the opposite in fact.


You can't even quote a Usenet post properly. Work on that before
attempting more complicated things like critiquing SC.


Critiquing SC is not difficult, his rantings make that task very easy, Even
if his arguments did have any merit, his off-topic spam like postings debase
the whole point of view. It just looks like very childish behaviour.

You figured it out, Jeff. SC is my 8 year old
trouble-making grand-nephew who doesn't know
a single character of Morse code.

Cecil,

I don't believe you. I think you're kidding us.

Everybody knows that 8 year olds don't act *that* childish....

PKB.

You aren't buying, selling, or swapping anything, so why are you
crossposting to rec.radio.swap? More to the point, why aren't you setting
a followup to your crosspost?

There's a plethora of information on Usenet at http://snipurl.com/10buv
Search for the word "crossposting".

HTH

HAND

F'up set.

I always knew Uncle Cecil was the Black sheep of the family. He hates ham
radio. I'm going to tell Grandpa Hiram not to invite him to the next
family reunion.
