Fair enough, all points noted. It was submitted to inject a little humour,
but failed miserably. As an aside, I normally run the spelling checker
through everything I write whether for the internet or elsewhere as I find I
often hit one key slightly before another so that "the" for example, comes
out as teh. This is now very noticeable when typing out stuff for my French
A Level course, since my version of Word doesn't have a French spelling
checker. Looks as though I will need to go back to good old writing with a
pen!
One other relevant comment is that maybe some of the observations I have
made aren't necessarily the fault of the writer as recently in a private
e-mail my use of the word "MIFF" was questioned. I checked my original
e-mail and most definitely I had typed MFJ as in MFJ 259-B Antenna Analyser.
Checking some other replies containing my text, it does appear that some
errors are being inserted during transmission. I would be happy to be made
aware of any.
Ok, back to the French homework! Chris G3SJJ

Chris,
Your post does nothing to enhance the image of G3's and, as the husband
of a someone who suffers from quite severe dyslexia (who, despite this,
is managing director of her own successful company), I find your sense
of humour distasteful. Putting aside problems of dyslexia, not everyone
in our hobby has had the benefit of a decent education.
I am sure there are plenty of suitable websites or other reflectors
where such comments might be at home, but please not on this reflector.
