[TowerTalk] One of our own...

[Bob K6UJ]

Dave,

You have made your point again very vigorously. !
I agree with you.

As Jim, W5IFP said earlier,  "Be nice.......This is a hobby !"
(This is what I am trying to get across.)
We need to  take a moment to read the message we are about to send
and ask ourselves is this a constructive response or will it be degrading
to the recipient. With a little care we can make our point and tailor 
our criticism
to be supportive.  I feel that sometimes we are discouraging and driving
people away from the reflector.



73,
Bob
