Topband: New Modes, Systems, etc

[kolson at rcn.com]

It's easy to appreciate why many people - who are passionate about the hobby
- get upset about some of the things they see as being very negative to the
hobby.

 Here in Britain there were LOTS of well-respected Amateurs who were actively
involved in Jamming the VHF Repeaters when they first came on the air in the
1970s.

However "well respected" they were, shouldn't they have been reported to the authorities rather than "appreciated"? Should we appreciate hams who jam dxpeditions, contesters, traffic nets or ragchewers?

Just curious...
