Mark: Yet another opinion... Some of these AM haters are very much like the big car drivers in high school who would haul around a gaggle of guys who would laugh at a practical good mileage car and make fun of the operator. Same mentality....dumb and dummmber. (no.. I couldnt afford a car).
Also, I think some of the folks are just plain jelous (sp), They cant build AM or maintain or operate it but they "shore can buy leenears". Its a class conscious society, if I cant have it neither can you. Shields up. Charlie, K0NG .
