Owen's posts can also be accessed on the RSGB sites. I subscribe to both
the "antennas" and the "antennas research" sites from RSGB. Owen's posts
are excellent and always technically and engineering wise sound. Our
friends to the east in the UK and Germany have some sharp hams, far more so
than here in the states (I won't go on that rant, again....???) .
And, I probably should not post this, but the RSGB sites are far more open
to expressing opinions; positive, negative, roasting, or flaming. I steer
clear of such practices (mostly - I've been roasted a few times), but I
have to occasionally smile at some of the humor from the other side of the
small pond. And, I must confess some of the roasting and flaming is
deserved.

Some of you may be familiar with the blog of an Australia ham Owen Duffy.
He posts on a wide range of topics and is technically quite
knowledgeable. He "lurks" on this group and does not post here but does
comment on topics under discussion on his blog.
A recent post was about this topic. Readers might find it interesting.
Sadly many of his posts (like this one) make pejorative comments about
members of this group who he refers to as "online experts" and there is no
way to comment on his blog or offer any kind of rebuttal. One wonders why
he does not post directly in this group where a technical discussion. can
take place.
