Yup! Nothing is more permanent than a cherished belief completely
unsupported by fact.

There you go, doing that "fact" thing again! :-)

I have been following the "discussion" with increasing amazement. The
thing that most boggles my mind is that none of the discussion has
anything to do with SDR. Everyone is arguing about knobs, computers,
mice, and displays. Nary a word has been uttered about QSDs, ADC bit
depth, filter quality, dynamic range, or anything else substantive.

But I guess I shouldn't be amazed. There was a time when I was accused
of trying to "ruin packet radio" with my TCP/IP experimentation.

Every once in awhile I wonder how amateur radio can possibly justify
its claim to any of the RF spectrum. This is one of those times.
