I have been a ham for 57 years the first week of October. I have owned a K2 (built it myself) since September 2001.

I have a couple of other hobbies too. Yesterday I spent the morning with a bunch of guys who do mods to their Corvettes. Most of this group have a huge investment in their car; $50,000 to well over $100,000. Like many of you some are engineers. All know how to turn a wrench. I rarely hear a complaint about the Corvette brand. If they do not like something they change it themselves. I did.

Here on this reflector there are many who share their experience and ideas to help others. I greatly appreciate their experience and wisdom. So thank you to those individuals. Then there are those who like to write emails to show others what they know, not necessarily to assist others. I can readily see the difference between the two. I do not understand why folks can not hold their tongue ? I guess I have been wired differently. Or maybe at my age, I have learned to seldom speak unless I can help someone. I apologize for this email. Rarely if ever do you convince people with words. Actions are what count. Can we hold down the critics ? Probably not. How about trying just a little.
