Hey, everybody-
I got this note from an extremely disgruntled ham. Anybody else get this
lovely comment?
Callsign omitted to protect the "innocent:"
>I hope you enjoyed your weekend of RTTY operation because you and many
>other
>RTTY jerks ruined the weekend for many others!
>
>I guess when there is a "CONTEST", it gives you and the other
>obnoxious
>people like you the right to jump on any freq. that you want so you
>can
>"Score the Big One". I truly hope that you did "WIN" because the
>reputation
>you have established will be with you for a long long time.
>
>There are some of us left on the ham bands that respect one another
>and the
>"Gentleman's Agreement" that has been around for many many years.
>Some day
>when your not too busy "qrm'ing" everyone on the bands, you might wish
>to
>take a look and see just what it might say. I realize that you're
>I.Q. is
>quite small, but if you can find someone who will talk to you, perhaps
>they
>will read it and explain it to you. I believe everyone has the
>potential to
>learn--even mindless people like you. The problem that you have is
>trying
>to find someone with any intellegence at all that will associate with
>you.
>GET HELP SOON WHILE THERE MIGHT STILL BE HOPE FOR YOU!
>
>The next time there's an RTTY contest, why don't you just expand your
>operations to the 11 Meter band--you'll find lots of people just like
>you
>on that band. I'm surprised that you ever left there.
>
>Next time, before you hit the xmit key, look and listen!
>
>If you have absolutely no idea of what I am speaking. Let me know and
>I'll
>see if I can find some pictures that you might be able to understand.
>Don't
>give up, there is always hope.
>
>Warmest regards.
Am I the only victim of this person's tirade?
