[amsat-bb] Broadcasting

[Kevin Deane]

You know I knew there would be a spoilsport in the group, well we are all entitled to our opinion. In my opinion ALL of the people are "Boadcasting" and the moment someone starts experimenting and actually having FUN with a two way conversation on the ISS, if you bothered to look that is you old codger! So the 99 percent of the people that are "Beaconing" and not even saying anything, now that is a waste of power.
 
Broadcasting and a waste of power, you know what a waste of power is? Me bothering to respond to such negativity. This is Amateur Radio.
