Hi Alan, thanks for the invite but I usually retire around 01:00
and get up around 08:00 local time. I used to play music gigs
where I would come home after 02:00 but thankfully, I get home
earlier these days. If in the off-chance I can't sleep I'll look
for you guys there. Thanks and 73, Jim WA6EKS

Good morning Jim.
If you are as crazy as me, you will generally find me on 7163
between the
hours of 03:00 AM and 05:30 local with the DX/rag-chewing group
run by
WB2REM. We are on 7 days a week, working DX and solving all of
the world's
problems. Drop by any time that you are up during that period of
time.

Alan, well stated. I won't add anymore to this thread. Wishing
you and yours a very healthy and happy new year. I have only an
inkling of the travail you have undergone recently and wish you
many years of happy hamming to come. Best 73, Jim WA6EKS

Subject: Re: Irritations, repetitions, obnoxities
Morning Jim, As you correctly state, we have all been guilty of
submitting
posts who's subject line did not match the content of the
underlying
message, so we all have room for improvement. It is just when I
see message
after message after message all with the same subject, it does
get annoying.
In any event, I won't say any more on this subject. As others
have written
privately, I simply ignore messages from certain parties.
Another common
thread that others have mentioned privately, is jealousy. Heaven
knows that
we have lots of that going on in this list. We get criticism for
discussing
expensive or otherwise difficult to match, but when I post, I am
not meaning
it is wishful thinking, rather things that are dead nuts certain.

Geeze Phil, you suffering from PMS or something? Part of being on
this list is showing some forgiveness, patience, and tolerance
towards others for continuing off topic posts and repetitive
subjects that never change, even though the subject matter in the
body of the email has changed long ago. Yah I know, I too have
suffered my own irritation at stuff on this list, but come on,
it's only day one of a brand new year! We still have to muddle
through 364 more days! Best 73, Jim WA6EKS

Subject: Golden Words About The Golden Microphone Thread By A
Golden Ham
Yeh, you guys,
That goes for ground rods, antennas, amplifiers, power tubes,
your new radio
gift for Christmas, where W1AW is operating over and over again,
what gage
of wire to use for your wire antennas, loop discussions verses
inverted
vees, band reports and conditions endless discussed, off topic
postings that
aren't even ham radio related, your pitiful problems relating to
your
limited space for a tower or antenna, sun spot cycle reposts,
those endless
postings of ham radio related emails, your old rigs you ran when
you were a
kid and now are trying to get back on the air, contest scores of
yours or
somebody else's, and what is this deal of you silly hams
requesting somebody
set up a schedule to QSO on the air when you could just call
somebody on the
phone instead. Even worse, setting up dad blame CW nets for the
blind and
for side band. Come on! I'm beginning to think this outfit is
becoming
less and less ham radio oriented and especially when a subject is
repetitive. Oh, sure, I know I can just hit my delete key but
why should I
do that when you just keep talking about all the same old ham
radio crap on
this freaking ham radio list. Come on! Get a life, will you?
If you'd be
more like me, you'd be a hell of a ham and would know better.
Maybe I'll
take my ham business elsewhere.
Phil.

From the "just wondering" department, is it really necessary to
have
several
dozen posts about the Goldline microphone. This kind of just
about
infinite
length threads about trivial subjects is one of the main reasons
that I am
seriously considering unsubscribing. An awful lot of the posts
to this
reflector are totally useless, and serious time wasting.

Hello Junior,
Well you know what both of my Kenwoods sound like on the air and
I have
one
on each of them.
I get nothing but good comments on my audio.
I am not bragging, just trying to answer your question.
Best 73!

Subject: Heil goldline microphone
Is there anyone on the list that uses a Heil goldline Microphone
on
the Kenwood ts2000?
I had a friend send me one in the mail today.
I wondered how well it sounds on the ts2000.
Thanks for any info.
