a history of the campign again KB9RQZ the kosher ham
in 1997 I ws in a chat room some and saw a nick that looked to me like a ham call (i don't recall the call but it was a VK au call) and we started chatting and I out about the no code tech liecnse
	I ordered a study giude and found a site to take the exam and 13 day laster I took the exam and the study guide arrived at the house when i got home by US Mail. i had passed that exam and a bit later I was asigned the call Kb9RQZ that evening I made my first contact the thrudays night with net control N9NXL on the WS9V repeater as I recall the calls this was in Central Illinois near springfield
I then began to look around in the ham world online and I found RRAP in those days it was a place where one could discuss ham radio policy esp the role if any that code testing should play in the ARS sadly as result of the war against me and others the place is dead and ham off in various modded forums
	the debate was heated and sharp the sides well defenined
		then K4yz arrived and realy upped the ante he started the pattern on abuse that he he made his name for amoug his deeds inthose day included threatening to murder me that is right murder me then when that did not disaude me form posting he and his freinds went looking arround the web
and he found I was bisexaul something I don't go arround advertising it but I don't hide it his response was to try and blackail me into leaving RRAP and Ham radio or else
Here I mae my big mistake I assumed ham were by and large adults	and so I simply came out in RRAP thinking in a few days to few weeks the matter would die down
		This was a mistake
a huge mistake
	not sure what would have worked better
I guess I should have waited and let him out me or not not sure however if you could tell the difference today, ut I did what I did
