said by AnonProxy :These nerds are going rule the world! Umm, pardon me for pointing out something, but the nerds are the computer/internet users. The radio guys aren't really nerds.

| Radio guys aren't nerds? We write software, argue about what semiconductor devices are best, love the smell of solder and warm vacuum tubes, track satellites, and put big pieces of aluminum and steel that rotate in the air. I think that qualifies us as nerds  |

| reply to phattieg Holy crap who are you kidding...ever see a HAM fest? Ever see a guy with 15 different radios and antennas in his car?
You have to go WELL out of you way to be a HAM dork. All you have to do to use a PC is go to freaking Walmart.
PC's are pretty much appliance level consumer products for the unwashed masses...HAM radios are just for the unwashed. |
