Funny: In a forum on public service on campus earlier this month, Mr. Obama (Columbia '83) and John McCain (Annapolis '58) were both asked about the ROTC ban. When Mr. McCain predictably called on Columbia to "re-examine" the ban, he was predictably booed by a crowd of several thousand students who were watching the debate on a giant TV screen on campus.
The question was later put to Mr. Obama. "I think we've made a mistake on that," Mr. Obama replied. "I recognize that there are students here who have differences in terms of military policy, but the notion that young people here at Columbia aren't offered a choice or an option in participating in military service is a mistake." The same students who had so lustily booed Mr. McCain, reported the New York Times, were "largely silent" when Mr. Obama gave the same answer.

WONDER WHY SO MUCH QRM ON HF??
Just heard a station say "I notice there are no channels on HF
like there is on VHF". Then the station he is talking with says,
"that's right, just move up a few from where he is a call call CQ"
Hmmmmmmmmmmm.
I listen to 14.275 a lot. Out of several hours I probably hear this
phrase maybe once or at best twice "IS THE FREQUENCY IN USE" Oh well.
While I'm venting...can someone explain to me what "contact" means.
I keep looking for a propeller trying to run me over.

CW FOREVER...URAHHHHHHH.
Montana Ham Assists in Rescue of Fellow Amateur 600 Miles Away.....On Sunday, September 21, Bob Williams, N7ODM, of Bozeman, Montana, was just tuning around on 40 meters, giving his rig a test just before a scheduled QSO with his brother Rich, K7URU, in Spokane, when he heard a faint CW signal around 1 PM (MDT): Glenn Russell Ruby Jr, W7AU, of Corvallis, Oregon had broken his leg and was using a portable radio and Morse code to send out a call for help. Williams said he was able to understand the injured man's code even when his signal became very weak.
"He called me. He must have heard me testing out the radio. When I finished, I signed off with my call, and then I heard, 'N7ODM, this is W7AU/7,' so I answered," Williams told the ARRL. "I told him to go ahead, I had solid copy. He told me that he was a hiker that had fallen and broken his leg. He identified himself as Russ, provided information as to his GPS coordinates, the shelter, food and water on hand, as well as his detailed physical condition. He told me exactly who I needed to contact for assistance."
According to Williams, Ruby had slipped on a wet rock and broken his leg while out hiking in the Buck Creek Pass area of the high Cascades in Western Washington, 600 miles away from Williams. "Russ really had his act together," Williams said. "Before he even called for help, he set up his tent. It was raining when he fell, so he climbed into his tent and got into some warm clothes and had a snack of sunflower seeds and dried apricots. After that, he strung up a wire antenna, fired up his Elecraft K1 and called me." Williams said that Ruby told him he had a "couple of weeks worth of battery power" for the radio.
Ruby asked Williams to notify the Snohomish County Search and Rescue in Washington State. "I didn't have their number, so I called my local 911 dispatcher. All they had was the info for King County in Washington, so I called them and they gave me the number for Snohomish. When I got a hold of Snohomish County Search and Rescue, they asked me to obtain additional info from Russ, such as the color of his tent and if he was in a clear or wooded area, and remain in contact with him as long as possible," Williams said.
"Russ and I were able to maintain contact until about 8 PM on Sunday, during which time I was able to pass additional traffic between Russ and Search and Rescue, but then his signal got so weak where I couldn't copy it anymore. Before he faded, we had agreed to try and make contact in the morning. I tried, starting around 6:30, but he never heard me. I finally heard him calling me around 9 on 7.051 MHz. We kept in contact until he was evacuated from the site by Search and Rescue at about 10:35 AM," Williams told the ARRL.
On Sunday, rescue crews reached Ruby, who had set up camp on Buck Creek Pass, at about 6000 feet just west of the Chelan County line. He was taken to safety Monday on horseback. Williams said that bad weather Sunday prevented a helicopter rescue: "It was snowing all night; Russ told me that when he woke up Monday morning, his tent was all covered in snow."
"I just happened to be at the same frequency," Williams said. "It's just a stroke of luck that turned out great. It was quite an experience. I'm just glad that he was a ham radio operator and that I was able to talk to him. It made the difference for him. What I did was not anything special. I'd like to think that any ham in Montana would've done the same thing."

GOOD OLE KAROL IS BACK
Here I am surfing the web and listening to a Special Events station
having fun on 14.276. When out of the clear clean frequency comes
the Kanadian Fried Moron.
His first transmission is to call Americans criminals and malicious
interference. Then a KC0*** calls in and says "whats this all about"
DUHHHHHHHH. Like man let me put out the plant, like man I just
woke up from my 20 year nap.
Of course Karol "fills him in". Looked like a script from a third
class broadway show to me.
During this there were at least 3 stations begging him to turn it
down and he was splattering all over the band. Sounds about normal
to me.
In the process he moved down to 14.273. This was he could be sure
to bother everyone.
He proceeded to invite the KC0 to send him an email and he would
direct him to his "famous site".
Then he goes QRT.
Now I ask you....is this a put up or what? Does he really think
we don't understand what he is doing? Sorry Karol, we figured
you out a while back.
What surprised me was he didn't blame me for qrming him. Maybe
he got tired of hearing about me doing it from ICU last year, and
I hold the record. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Been gone a week and nothing changes. What a deal.

Just got back from a trip up North. A local cop gave me this

SOME OF YOU CHILDREN ARE BECOMING ANNOYING
Listen....some of you seem to think my "job" is screening every
thing on the Internet that I DEEM interesting enough to post on
MY BLOG. Sorry....no ring that time.
A Anonymous individual has informed me that my post of the
Copper county club minutes concerning Mark (of course), is
not correct and wonders where it came from.
Here again we have a problem with reading. I really wish
SOME OF YOU would try that language course for those that
have English as a second language.
Here is the alleged correct path.....http://www.ccraa.net
Click Here
On the left side scroll till you see "newsletter" give it
a click, then select the last entry on that page. Believe
it said August.
If you notice MY POST was a COPY FROM MARKS page. Or at
least one of many of his pages. So if it is error,
guess who did it? Yep good ole Marky. Actually though
considering his Internet record I would say it was his
way of "modifying reality" if ya'll all know what I mean.
You guys know something? For someone you call stupid he
sure runs a lot of people nuts here on the Internet don't
he? Well I sure think he does, and since this is my
BLOG I'm entitled to write my opinions...hi hi.
So compare to your hearts content. I don't think it is
important enough to worry about because if the bitcher
would have bothered to read my initial post he would
have KNOW it came from Mark's blog. Anyway do as you
all want.
Personally I think we on the INTERNET are giving this
goofball way too much attention. And I include myself
for this also. I will do my best to avoid such in the
future....But he is such a easy target, dang. Oh well.

Mark Morgan, KB9RQZ, ejected from CCRAA. Lying libeler, unfit to serve.
From the CCRAA Newsletter, August, 2008.
Mark Morgan, KB9RQZ has been given unobstructed access to my blog.
Yet he continues to abuse it by calling me and all my posters, liars.
So I have decided to place this little tid-bit on the "front page" for
all to see and comment on.
Thanks to stan for this particular version. If stan would send me his
URL I'll put a link here to your page.
Dan/W4NTI
"At 7:36 pm Gavrielah had to leave suddenly (no reason given) and the roster of those present was turned over to George,
W8FWG. Glenn, WA8QNF asked this question of the President. “Mark, in the interest of the CCRAA would you be willing to step down as President of the organization.?”
The answer given by Mark Morgan, KB9RQZ, was “No!”
In view of the “turbulence” that occurred, the Property Chairman’s report (W8FWG’s report) did not get read, but it is included here as
follows:
...The lawn was not mowed, per the President’s request, because of his allergy to newly mown grass.... Cataloging of the small parts cabinet
continues, and now that we have a new computer this should be completed by year’s end..
A motion made by Glenn, WA8QNF and seconded by Roy, WB8ZYL to “Remove Mark,
KB9RQZ from the office of President of the CCRAA” was introduced, and a discussion followed. When it came to a vote, there was one ABSTENTION, one NO vote, (Mark's) and 11 YES votes, and the motion carried.
George, W8FWG, being appointed Acting Secretary took ending notes. The next meeting of the CCRAA is scheduled to be held at the Osceola Clubhouse on September 2, 2008 at 7:00pm EDT....

KAROL JAMS OFF DX ON 14.275
You would think that with all the grumbling, cussing, and carrying on
by VE7KFM about QRM he would try and avoid it himself, right? WRONG.
Today on 14.275 a very weak station from Ascension Island (ZD8LP)
worked a string of Stateside and Europe. Until of course VE7KFM,
Karol F. Madera a known troublemaker opened up calling CQ and of
course run him off.
Shortly after that a PY5 station asked if freq was in use, got no
reply after three requests...Yep you got it, soon as the Brazil
got a station in Germany Karol begins CQ'ing once again. He was
asked to standby several times and IGNORED them totally. Several
stations called him from 6 and 7 land that I could hear and super
operator heard none of them. Of course he called CQ as soon as
the Brazil station went into listening mode.
And of course he not once asked if the frequency was in use.
Now where is that Woulf-Hong when ya need it?

TIRED of VE7KFM....TRY THIS.
Notice how this complaint letter was sent to the
Minister for Industry Canada, who then passed it

yapping away and does no good at all and who also
says the deal with KFM is a "frequency fight", Oh
MY..hi hi.
Notice how he said to continue this matter then
the author MUST submit it via the FCC. Who has
stateted in the past that they toss in the oval
file letters about KFM. Hmmmmmmmm
No wonder nothing gets done.

I KNOW IT AIN'T NO BIG DEAL TO A LOT OF HAMS...BUT...TO ME

WHAT COULD BABY KAROL BE LOOKING AT ?
I REMEMBER ALL THOSE STORIES HE TOLD OF HOW HIS FAMILY HAD TO HIDE
FROM FIRST THE NAZI AND THEN THE RUSSIAN SOLDIERS IN HIS HOME COUNTRY
IN POLAND. WOW, DO YOU THINK?

So what does all this mean to the average ham? It means you got some
more time to talk the XYL into where to put that new tower and beam.
It also means you can get some serious DX on the low bands, such as
160, 80, 40 meters.
Speaking of 40 meters, this year is when the majority of out of our
zone stations, (such as Europe) can move up the band from 7100. This
means you can work direct to DX on 40SSB for the first time in over
half a century. This combined with the increase in DX potential of
40 will in my opinion make it the premier DX band for the next few
decades. At least for you Phone operators. Enjoy.
