Personally I don't understand why anyone would shoot someone down for trying to support a hobby that needs all the support it can get! this is how Ham Radio loses the drive of its' supporters. There are more positive ways to direct someones efforts than the Sarcastic comments I have seen here. Instead of dropping the subject or getting more critical, maybe we should back up and applaud the efforts of a fellow HAM!
