[TenTec] About the incivility of our posts

[Richard Detweiler]

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.
