Thanks Herb,
Saying "In all due respects" does not change the fact that you have a bigoted
view on something that should not be in the public arena...
In Australia we would call your statements defamous plain and simple. Kangaroo
court...but that seems to be what is happening to this group - after the
successful prosecution of TO7A you appear to think you can act with impunity
and look for the next target on the range.
No doubt I have been added to the hate list.
Regards and "In all due respects"
Trent VK4TS
