There are some very smart and experienced folks that hang around this reflector, which is the reason I take time to sort through all the B/S to get to the jewels of wisdom.  

That said, no one likes to be lectured to, or made to look like a fool, especially in public.  When someone pushes that particular button, the result is usually a public FLAME ON response, and I get that.  It's probably safe to say that it has happened to most folks, or they have seen it done to others with their own eyes.  It is a natural response when someone sticks a finger in your chest to just jump up and beat the be-jezus out of that particular idiot (either physically or verbally). Just be aware that some folks actually TRY to get that kind of reaction from others and get off on it!  

So a polite request please... try as best you can to ignore the temptation to go public with the flame-on response and instead go to private email and have at it.  

This a TECHNICAL forum and not an ego contest arena where snide comments are made about the technical ability of hams in some other country, or the legality of some kind of amplifier or emission type, or WHATEVER ELSE! 

And since I am on a roll, please also try to limit the EGO CONTESTS that are really out of control from several posters here.  Please don't give education at the price of sarcasm. 

This is already too long of a response.  My bad.  Later.

** No need to as I have qualified people and a loving family plus girlfriend 
to do that.

** Hmm, that discussion was more of a difference of opinion between adequate 
and very conservative number of diodes if I remember.
OTOH, Ive never claimed to be perfect and defer that to you and JI.  Ive 
owned up to my share of errors.

** First of all I doubt if I said the coil MUST be resonant at the EXACT 
parasitic frequency and secondly I dont owe you anything for references as 
in my opinion you can do your own research.

** In any case I consider both subjects long past and closed and only a very 
petty person would keep bringing them up.
Maybe it is time for you to take another long absence from here.
