AS FALL APPROACHES, the static on 75 meters starts to go down and far-sighted hams start thinking about improving their antenna systems in the cool — but not yet cold — outdoor weather. Falling leaves often signify rising signals!

Thanks to Marty, N2IRJ, for filling in as Net Control Station when Vic, W1WCR was attending this year’s Oktoberfest.

Here’s a brief selection taken from among the topics brought up on the net, along with my take on them:

• These days, if you buy a John Deere, an RCA, or sometimes even a Cadillac, you’re just getting a cheaply-made Asian product with a venerable old American nameplate slapped on it just before the inflated price sticker (of about ten times the item’s true value) is attached. In so many ways, America is just a shell of its former self. Soon we won’t be able to pretend anymore. (11 minutes)

Here are some of the interesting ideas brought up during this week’s session of the net:

IONOSPHERIC CONDITIONS were turbulent and static levels were Summer-like in their intensity this week, but the efficient antennas of the Liberty Net’s keystone stations made the dialogue as interesting and lively as ever. On the air since 1974, the Liberty Net is amateur radio’s oldest current events discussion net.

Here are some of the issues discussed and debated during this week’s Liberty Net:

• The Africanization of American life is reaching Idiocratic proportions: Illinois state representative Bobby Rush recently wore a “hoodie” to the legislative chamber and complained loudly about the shooting of Trayvon Martin in faraway Florida, while at the same time there were some 13 shootings in his own district, with two confirmed dead so far. (18 minutes)

• A young White boy in Missouri was recently attacked by a gang of Black thugs who poured gasoline on him and set him afire, all the while screaming racial abuse at him. Yet we hear nothing from Obama, nothing from Eric Holder, and nothing from the billionaires’ media on that crime. (25 minutes)
