I found a thread on QRZ and wanted to ask the poster a question. I signed up for a username and password, pm'ed the guy, got a response (very helpful).
I then went on and started looking around at other posts and found that a lot of responses to posts were pretty abrasive. I thought to myself that I would be hard pressed to post there because I am new to the hobby and really don't want to get abuse for asking what some may consider a "stupid" question.
I don't know about everyone else, but I find the easiest way to learn is to ask (wish I would have learned that way back in grammar school)!
I also saw several comments about not learning code and 2m is where all newbys should stay... blah blah blah
I really want to learn code and think that by having my license will allow me to listen, question and gain more knowledge.
I am definitely glad to have found this site. I do not see any abusiveness here so far.
Just my 2 cents
