Hi Burt,
Thank you for  giving all of us this wonderful opportunity to get some
positive attention for  the world of amateur radio with your QST to the
newspapers.

You see my friend.  If I see your letter published it will give me the
opportunity to contact the editorial staff at the paper and meet with them.
(been there and done that before).  At this meeting I will show them some of
the wonderful posts that you have placed in the news groups which will pretty
much show you as the nut case you are.

At the same time I will bring material to show them them the public service
side of amateur radio.  I will also show them examples of how amateur radio is
an organization of international good.   I will show them with examples of how
amateur radio is a very positive influence on young people.   More then
likely, this will result in at least a guest editorial and probably a nice
story in the community or features section.

The net results will be an increased understanding of the positive side of
amateur radio and will more than likely bring some new new hams into the
ranks.

Again, thank you for providing a way for us to get some great promotions of
the hobby you so dearly like.

Anyway, tnx fer the fb qso.

Sorry Burt but much to your surprise most newspaper folk are net literate and
they will have not problem pulling up your old posts for themselves.    But I
really doubt I will ever see your letter in print in the first place.

Quote:> What so called public service have YOU ever performed?

Well  I guess you could say that my first public service work in ham radio
started when I worked hf traffic for the Alaskan Earthquake.   I have worked
ARES, RACES and various other traffic nets.  Over the last 35 + years I have
worked communications during most of the local emergencies.  Including several
major floods, several forest fires, numerous weather related problems.

I have to admit I did not do much on hf for several years because of lack of
gear and time to put up a station.   But I got a new hf rig about 6 months ago
and am now back on hf with portable and emergency power capability and have
started checking back into several hf traffic nets.

Can't wait for field day!!!!!!

Quote:> As far as international good will, hams are ugly Americams, stomping over
> lower power stations.

Uhhhhh,  Haven't spent much time on hf have you Burt?  There are still a lot
of "power" stations on 20 just like there were 40 years ago.  But, try 15 or
17 meters for some fun dx.   Not a lot of KWs banging around there.   Actually
maybe you could give us a few examples of those ugly American station stomping
over those low power stations.

Quote:> That is total BS. There are few young people who care the least
> about the boring world of HAM radio.

Well Burt old buddy, I was at a VE exam a few weeks back and a good portion of
the people there were  under 18.  We had another poster here talk about taking
a whole group of young people through a class, and all of them became hams.
Maybe it is just the young folk around you Burt.  Have you tried to show them
the positive aspects of ham radio or do you just bad mouth it all the time the
same way you do here?

> > Anyway, tnx fer the fb qso.

> You live for the cliche. And you LIE.

You need to relax a little and enjoy life Burt.  Please tell us how I am lying
Burt?

But anyway, tnx agn fer the fb qso and c u ltr........

The scary part is if the (arguably) most powerful man in the world
(our Prez) can't (allegedly) have   *CONSENSUAL* sex with a *WILLING*
of *LEGAL AGE* female without KOMRADE Ken Starr issuing subpoenas to
everyone under the sun (her, her mother, a bookstore where she
shopped) what lies in store for the rest of us Peons ????
