[CW] Re: CW Digest, Vol 15, Issue 20

[David J. Ring, Jr.]

Point well taken.

Joe was a fellow that "hated No Code hams".

I don't know any CW operators who hate "no code hams".

I've always thought that 5 wpm Tech's were loosing out on a lot of amateur 
radio - and they were - if they just got their 13 wpm (in the old days) they 
would have full access to the entire ham spectrum.

I just don't get why you would ever think about posting a message about 
hate - or haters.

The inference is that Joe was a CW fellow - or at least he was a "Code 
Ham" - but why hate someone who can't use a mode he doesn't use?

Hans - that stuff doesn't belong anywhere on the internet, much less here.

Best Wishes,

David N1EA

Of course I disagree!

First I'm primarily a CW operator, and I certainly wouldn't rub my OWN nose
in "S#!T"

Second, not even ONCE does the story mention that "Joe" operates CW, but it
DOES mention his use of voice operations multiple times.  By that standard
the author should be accused of rubbing PHONE operators noses in S#!T.

Get over yourself.
