Carl - Speaking of pomposity, I can't see why you have to keep rudely picking on 
people's RACE here, even after requests from 
the moderator and from others to stop it.  I also wonder why your messages are 
from "Geoff" - maybe it' s my mail reader.

Incidentally, some of the fine British antique radio experts on this list (whom you 
now turn to insulting) have been a great help 
to me, and if it weren't for that small number of radio amateurs in the U.K.  I would 
never have learned about the joys of  amateur radio 
nor become licensed as G3XLQ back in the 1960s. My first receiver was an R1155 
from a Lancaster Bomber , in which 2/3 of our boys lost 
their lives helping to defend your arse's freedom. An improvised 230V AC power 
supply had to built by hand on a biscuit tin for the thing. 
What a joy it was to see that thing succeed and hear the crackling and heterodynes 
as those strong (and I may add FRIENDLY) signals 
rolled in from across the pond on the 14 MHz band.  Down with racism. Rule 
Brittania! 73 & Happy New Year.

p.s. My Grand-dad was an Aussie so you were adding insult to injury!
:) - still, we all can easily guess that you got the attention you crave.
