[Elecraft] NVIS HF vs VHF line-of-sight & CB

[Clay Autery]

Well sir, we'll have to agree to disagree.  The young HAM (in HAM years
anyway) was not LISTENING to those from whom he had openly solicited
advice. 

He was informed of this, perhaps lightly chastised...  Now that he is
aware, he may choose whether to modify his behavior to be more
productive.... or not.

I would EXPECT my "Elmer" to do nothing less should he spot a
shortcoming in my conduct within the community.

Have a wonderful day.  Please make any additional responses via private
email.  Thanks!

73,

That has been well documented in this forum and others. It's against the spirit of ham radio and you are sanctioning that type of conduct with your response.
