- ok, no flames, just (if you could be so kind as to) answer these 'stupid'
- questions:
-
- What does VOA stand for and/or mean?
- is it similar to VOR (or is that ROV (record on voice)?)?
- What does HAM (as in HAM enthusiast) stand for?
- What is "BFO to hear SSB voice and CW (code)"?
- Why are some frequencies called 'meter', as in 10meter band?
-
- i haven't noticed any of these rudimentary questions in any FAQ (correct
- me if i'm wrong). perhaps an email response is on order, but if i'm
- brave enough to ask these questions publicly, i suppose i can take the
- answers publicly.
-
- Thanx in advace
