[ICOM] Re: 756 Pro III vs. Tentec Orion vs the world

I think maybe we need to lighten up a bit of some of
these reflectors.  I belong to some non-ham reflectors
also(I do have other interests) and we get off topic
all of the time, and no one complains unless you
launch a personal attack against others.  It seems
like many of the ham reflectors treat an off topic
post like the unpardonable sin.  I actually enjoy
reading a variety of posts, and if it is something
that I am not interested in, I **GASP** use the delete
key.  Or are they now making keyboards that lack such
a key.
