> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lid Bob- I looked up your referance for LID. I have to totally disagree with that defination.
"Inept or immature operator in the amateur radio service (derogatory)" Inept, is a bogus explaination in this case. Because a person is slow and unexperianced does not mean he is 'inept.' Give the guy time and he will get better. To say a person is 'immature' is also totally bogus as used in ham radio. I have worked 75 year old novices, that are making their first QSO, that I would call a LID operator. I would not say a 75 year old man was 'immature.' I also wouldn't say a person is stupid because he was a poor operator. Lack of experance is not being immature or stupid. You can't trust everything you read on Wikipedia. I have found a lot stuff that people have placed on Wikipedia that was just WRONG!!!!
