No to add fuel to the fire but I will quote from your initial email below. You are the one that spoke, in no uncertain terms, about hams in general, not I, and everyone can see that. I did not do so. You can stand by your statements, which in my opinion sounded to me to be self serving.? I did not admonish you, that was not my intention but tried to point out that there are certainly hams that are as smart as you or I, and know their way around RF.? I am sorry that you mis-interpreted my response. Based upon my experience, of the hams that I know they have a thirst for knowledge about many things. I would think that is a good thing. So what if they?want to buy a product that they may know nothing about.? With the fraternity decreasing in numbers we need all the support that we can get. Don't you remember when you knew absolutely nothing about spectrum analyzers, or were you born with the ingrained knowledge? I'll bet?certainly?not, you had to learn all of?the?details one way or another. I am sure that sometime in your life you asked what others thought were "stupid questions". I certainly have So I would not have made a general statement as you did below. Perhaps you should have phrased it differently. "as the second something new comes out, the pig herd (hams) will run out and want one and they can't even spell spectrum or analyzer. In the USA we have a comment regarding them, "more money than brains"? In any case they will deplete units on the shelf, then bombard? the group with stupid questions. The downside to your journey to fame and fortune." So let's just "bury the hatchet" and part friends. I am sorry if my direct response?offended you. I consider the subject moot. Sam Reaves
