For the newbie, posting an innocent question can lead to:
A long lecture about simulcast distortion and how this newbie might have to contend with it (or not).
At least one 6 paragraph post about how encryption (and RR) is killing the hobby
Four more posts ranting about encryption
One or two useful answers to the newbie about their question, location, and helpful links for antennas, etc.
Three more posts about how the SDS is a terrible scanner (from the same 3 who post that in each thread)
Two posts refuting the above, not defending the SDS, but pointing out Whistlers don't handle simulcast well
A post to gently remind us all to remain on topic
A political rant, something along the line of "some government bs"
Two posts about the Constitution and Free Speech
