Re: [Elecraft] OT:. "High end operator" Message-ID:
In the 50's [I was first licensed as KN6DGW in mid-1953] our local club congregated on 29.580 AM. I got a 40 meter rock for my TX as soon as I got my General and could get on 10. The number of young folk increased in the club, and finally one of the OT's measured all the OT's actual crystal freq against their TX freq, ground new rocks for each for 29.695, figuring none of us young studs could chance getting that close to the edge of the band. We decided that if they didn't want us, we could do without them. I think they might be the Ultimate High End Operators. They're all dead now. 73, Fred K6DGW Sparks NV Washoe County DM09dn On 9/5/2016 3:50 PM, Mel Farrer via Elecraft wrote: OK, for us old farts, we operated mobile on 3995 KHz, the HIGH END, as we called it..hi.

Well, I'd start by defining it as someone who follows the rules ... such as not repeatedly posting off topic stuff when they know full well it is against the rules they agreed to.

Re: [Elecraft] OT:. "High end operator"
Chas, You are pretty close; since amateurs don't use "channels", high end operators are normally General Class (and Extra Class) who operate at the high end of the HF amateur bands (for example, on 20M SSB, 14,300 and up). Another possible definition might be an individual who uses Elecraft equipment (as compared to a Heathkit HW 101). Dick.
