The whingers will always be with us. They will always exaggerate to make 
their point. Let us face it we contesters will at times cause QRM to 
those who just want to have a ragchew. Likewise we hate it when a 
ragchewer call us and starts to waffle on especially if we have a good 
run going.

An editor will always publish the whingers in the letters page - read 
your local newspaper. So any one for a whinge about not-contesters 
please write to Radcom editor and do not post here!

grumpy hams, virtually everything written is negative. Conversely I was
reading QST today and, whilst there is the odd moan, the letter page tends
to be a whole lot more positive. Get a balance RSGB, some of us are
perfectly happy and positive about amateur radio.
