Yeah. I didn't post this as a joke, either. This guy really used to
do it. And, one of the reasons I can't stand HF operation (other than
the biggest reason being the hiss) is that when we Tech+'s used to get
on and do all the "is this freq in use", etc....all the good operating
practices we'd been told were going to be *absolutes* on ham
radio--nearly every time there'd be some General or higher licensee
who'd get on over us and start calling CQ...or would go just off our
freq and begin.

Yep, there were good ones...just as there are good Novices, Techs, and
Tech+'s. But, the bad ones ruin it for everyone.

Well, I don't want to bash 10m as a band but it does seem to attract
some abberant behaviour, and a bit more worldwide than the same that
occurs on 75m and a few selected spots on 20.
Much of the bad behaviour is by CBers faking callsigns - or recent
CB'ers that have become Extras whilst still trying to kick the habit of
being obnoxious.

I'm sure you have some sort of data to back that claim, or no?

All one need to is turn on the HF radio and listen around. There are crappy
CBers too, Morph.

Oh I agree Kim, what I don't agree with is "most" of the bad behavior
is caused by CBer's on HF.

What kind of "broad paintbrushes" is the Bush Administration using? Are
they anything like Hillary's "Vast Right Wing Conspiracy?

Don't know, Larry. I don't pay much attention or give much credibility to
the Clintons. Why don't you tell us about it?

Whenever I used to bootleg--and I did before I was licensed, I always made
extra sure to stay out of ham radio frequencies--most hams know too much
about R&R and DFing. I won't do it now but only because I don't want

to
compromise my license. Well, along with the fact that now I realize what

an
idiot I was being.

Why did I suspect this about Kim? Attitude perhaps?
