hear, hear,

I'm learning from everyone.

Been a ham since 1970 and in electornics since before transistors ( it took me two years to learn hole theory... )

I can say that more than once I've been beleiving something incorrect about our science.

For example I wonder how many beleive SWR 1:1 is resonance and thus equal best radiation?

Thanks for pulling together, Our enemies are the ones trying to steal or polute our bands. Lets be activist on those issues.

Good radios with new ideas like the orion stimulate new ideas and make the hobby fun.

By operating, leanring new ways to comminicate, we become attractive to new hams,

Lets continue on that path.

73's

Dear Yuri,
The "imaginary reality" expression that I used, I cut and pasted from one of YOUR testy comments. It was intemperate of me, and for that


I sincerely apologize.

That said, at least a few of us have felt that some of your notes were somewhat ill-tempered (not to mention technically deficient - sorry) and we responded in kind. This is how "flame wars" get going, and we came pretty close to that. I regret my part in the less than polite nature of the exchanges, but I felt that I was responding to your impolite posts. I shall not apologize for finding some fault with your technical comments, but I do regret my weakness in responding in kind to the tone you set.

You don't want to be part of this group -- you are not a Ten-Tec fan -- that is OK.

We really are all brothers in our radio avocation, and we need to be more civil to each other. I intend to do my part.
73 and good DX to you,
Allan H. Kaplan, W1AEL
