I’m sure you’re expecting to see Clyde’s “Ham told an Air Force C-130 to go fly a kite” story here. Well, the situation has changed, so our story has changed.
KC2KIT, a good friend of Hamsexy and a player on the related thread on QRZ.COM has spoken to Anthony W8ANT about this matter. In their telephone conversation, W8ANT stepped to the plate and not only explained his actions, but apologized for the miscommunication and for his comments to KC2KIT. We here at Hamsexy admire W8ANT’s ability to be humble and recognize when they make a mistake (something that is lacking in this hobby), so we in turn would like to thank Anthony for doing the right thing in this situation.
We removed the article in this space not out of some sort of attempt at censorship (this isn’t the site for that), but to show our appreciation and thanks.
ANy further comments on this issue are appreciated, and we thank KC2KIT for helping us with this issue.
Take care all!
– Bryan VE3HBD, editor HAMSEXY.COM
First of all. I would like to take a moment to thank Bryan VE3HBD and Clyde McPhail for the kind words and support in this matter. I’m glad that the situation has turned out for the better here for both Anthony and myself. The situations surrounding the QRZ postings were unfortunate, but probably the catalyst for helping us find some common ground. And without rehashing what has been said several times now, I’ll continue to say, that Anthony and I have shared a few ideas that could potentially impact emergency services and potentially amateur radio locally to us.
So in closing, this is my public “Thank You” to Anthony W8ANT, for stepping up to the plate and speaking with me on this matter. I am glad that we had the chance to talk and learn a little from each other.
