[R-390] temper temper

[Bob Camp]

Hi

Well I for one would pretty strongly defend the guy who came up with 
the solid state AGC mod I have in *all* of my R-390A radios. If he 
wants to get a little excited from time to time he's earned the right 
and then some.

I agree that this kind of thing can get out of hand. When it does then 
yes that is a problem. I do not personally believe that we have quite 
reached that point yet. I would *much* prefer a spirited, active list 
with give and take discussion over a dead list mainly populated by 
requests for the same items again and again. Without discussion we 
learn nothing. I certainly will take a few more "before" pictures on IF 
decks in the future.

	Take Care!
