The admin guy didn't answer me until the next day. If the admin guy
is not Tom, then he must be helping the admin guy censor.

Tom.. 'suggests' he build a 12 vdc SS device.

### If Tom Rauch is not the admin/censor of 'amps'..... then
he's certainly joined at the hip of whoever is... or has a huge
influence over the ...."mystery censor" .
### Rich tells me... that the mega mailing list is now defunct
on 'amps'.
Early on, AMPS provided a list of members' e-mail addresses, but when the moderator/censor found out that this is how I was going around his censoring of my posts, the members list vanished. Thus, when my posts were recently being censored, I resorted to hand compilation to assemble the AMPS Bypass List.
To me... that's the straw that broke the camels
back.
The last straw was Tom censoring my post explaining why the Tx to Rx bias speed is blazingly fast in the TL-922.
### IMO... 'amps' has just degenerated into a ... "Tom Rauch
knows everything soapbox/platform"
Which is precisely what W4AN (SK) and W8JI intended it to be back in late 1996.
RE: Tom knows everything: A friend met a stranger at Dayton and struck up a mostly one-sided conversation. The impression my friend got was that the stranger acted like he knew virtually everything worth knowing about amateur-radio. Later he found out who he had been talking to. Any guesses?
## In the past..... anybody who didn't have a callsign got
booted from 'amps'...... ditto with some very knowledeable
11m amp builders...... and also Carl, KM1H.... who was a wealth
of practical info.
Carl's mistake was in dissin' the "expert". cheers, Jim
### who ever designed the undersized tank coils in the AL-80B
was a complete idiot imo. The wire ga is the same size as
what's used in a 200 w Drake T4XC TX.
later.... Jim VE7RF
