Moderate me, or ban me if you must, but my humble opinion is that KB7TSE is a royal jerk. I've been a ham longer than he is old, I opine from the immaturity of his comments, and I have NEVER heard such unmitigated drivel. If I had not been an Icom user for longer than KB7TSE is old, I'd tell him to take my 735/AT150/PS-55, 2720 and 706MKIIG, and shove them! Listen 'TSE (Terminally S__________ Egghead, fill in the blank with an appropriate adjective), hams have been whining and complaining about manufacturer pricing from time immemorial, but we still purchase the radios we deem worthy of our money, whining and complaining notwithstanding. It's part of our heritage, of who we are as Amateur Radio operators. Please excuse the rant...but somebody needed to say it! If I must be moderated or banned, then so be it. 73 de KX7Q Community email addresses: Post message: IC7000@... Subscribe: IC7000-subscribe@... Unsubscribe: IC7000-unsubscribe@...

So let me get this straight, you say that I am a jerk
because I don't want to hear people whine about the price of a radio. I have never whined about the cost of a radio. I don't associate myself with people that do either. I think that you are discrediting Hams in general by your statement. My original comments were not directed at anyone, but you seem to have taken them personally. I am sorry that you categorize yourself as a whiner, and took offense to my comments. --- RB <kx7q@...> wrote: kb7tse wrote, "If you are one of the whiners, go buy __________________________________ Yahoo!
