Censorship in its purest form

I tuned in to the Pahrump Receiver last night to see if what I’d been told, that it had been shut down, was correct. It was dead.

Leave it to someone living in UT playing at being the ‘moral police’ to decide what is appropriate (or not) for ME, or anyone else, to listen to.

Has it occurred to YOU Bob, that others do not share your mind set? (Well, perhaps only Big Ben kd7bcw, who is actually carrying out a ‘vendetta’.) If the FCC didn't want these folks on air, their tickets would be yanked and they wouldn't be transmitting. This hasn't happened.

As it is, your s-meter tuners are basically useless anyway, by virtue (I include this word just for you) of being 'kicked' every hour, you demonstrate your need to CONTROL everyone and everything to YOUR ideas of what an online tuner should be. I personally seldom listen there, but I do know a whole bunch of folks that do. Who knows whom you might have shut out? Or the future business you might be influencing in a negative way?

Now, Bob, you're imposing your 'morals' on everyone else! Did God appoint you censure of the airwaves??? Somehow I think not.

Get off the fence. Either provide dedicated tuners, or not, but leave your moral values at your church, because they sure aren’t mine!

Bob blocked my IP address months ago for reasons known only to him. I have emailed him several times asking why he took this action. I have not asked him to restore access to the site. I simply want to understand the thought process that led him to take this action. I am beginning to understand why billy calls them the "morally superior" hams. Apparently they really do think they are better than many other people.

Evvy, nobody owes you an online tuner.

And nobody's censoring anybody.

You can listen to anything you want.
All you need to do is buy a radio.

Then you won't have to whine endlessly about what other people do with THEIR equipment.

What Bob did at S-meter was absolutely correct. The whole point is to promote ham radio not this jam radio crap. Bob doesn’t need to spend his bandwidth on a train wreck of Billy followers.

Evvy you need to wake up and join the rest of us in "reality land." Bob can do anything he damn well pleases with his resources providing no contracts guide him otherwise. You're living in a fantasy world that doesn't coincide with the real world. Perhaps, Bob deemed the behavior on the streamed frequency wasn't something he wanted associated with his site. If this is so, it is interesting that Bob disagrees with the idiotic, mentally derranged ramblings of the likes of -BNQ, -AYJ, -TXH, -GU, -EZV, et al.. while seeing no problem with the mindless, moronic idol worshipping of The Loop which had dominated the tuner's selected frequency. The only thing that the instigators crew have over the zombie, thoughtless art fanboys is that they have no problem contradicting the fanboys' body of worship when he's wrong; which is quite often (accept it, fan boys!). Outside these instigators, Orv was the only person who had the cojones to contradict -OBB when he would spew out false or just plain stupid comments. Coupling this with his brilliant mind towards various ham radio principles (electronics, antennas, rf...), Orv was the only thing that kept the ever moving lord of the loop frequency crowd worth listening to.

Write Pete at QRZmail@K6XL.US to tell him how dumb he is.

Why bother when we can tell him right here? Of course EVERYONE knows he's Pete Slagel!

The real question is: does Pete know???

I was booted (censored) from Evvy's Yahoo group because I said I would contact Yahoo Abuse if I saw threats posted. Since Evvy likes threats against hams, she booted me so she could keep her group. She is a hypocrite.

In case any of the Art Bell stalkers didn't know, Timmy ("My favorite ham") is one of the consistant jammers on 75m at night. Here's the quiz for y'all, do you know which one ?
