Words of Wisdom:

 Never argue with an idiot!

If you start with an idiot you will finish with a idiot,

so what is the point?

The biggest problem with Ham’s today is, there are too many ex CB’ers that know every thing and get a two letter call to prove it.

If the shoe fits then wear it.

May be you should

Look at your self before you Judge others.

The trouble with Ham radio today is the ex CB’ers that have now  got two letter call and still behave like they did on CB!.

It’s time we report these exCB’ers for childish noise they make on air.
