   Hi Holger!   
      
   12 Feb 2016 09:28, from Holger Granholm -> Richard Menedetter:   
      
    RM>> But keep in mind that certain messages are biased to certain   
    RM>> viewpoints. And that many of those viewpoints expressed are far,   
    RM>> far off the viewpoints of the average HAM of today.   
    HG> Of which you are one??   
      
   Could you be more specific?   
   If I am one of the average HAMs??   
      
   No, probably not.   
   But in HAM Radio the average HAM is not that interesting, as the bandwidth of   
   interests is so huge that a simple average is not really meaningful.   
   Who is the closer to the average HAM a person doing earth-moon-earth bouncing,   
   or gigahertz communications or one doing shortwave or 70cm HTs?   
      
   But it is also not really relevant, as long as you like doing what you do,   
   continue to do so.   
   Especially if you do not try to put off other people of aspects of the HAM   
   hobby that you personally do not find that attractive.   
      
   May I ask what the background of your question was?
