I and my friends in the early 80's had our own way of dealing with the above QRM.

As I have said before, I don't want the bands to be like CB I want standards retained, however it will only happen if the older hams support and offer guidance to M3's...Sitting here griping all day with nothing positive to say just makes you look like what you are Arrogant and Ignorant!

No - the past teaches us how things were, not how they will be. The future will be what we make it, we have the power to shape the future. We can can chose either to follow blindly, learn from past mistakes, make changes that reflect the modern World or just create something new. Otherwise, we would all still believe in witchcraft, and would be burning people because they did something we consider strange. In fact, we would all live in caves and go out killing our food, because nobody taught anyone to do things different. Someone has to lead the way forward, so the sheep can follow.
