[hpsdr] My Apologies to Scotty! Was (Re: Thermal)

[Rob Frohne]

Philip, Scotty, et. al.

Philip, you are right, and I wish you weren't, because I enjoyed 
learning from the discussions.  Perhaps the problem is that with so many 
folk reading the mail it is hard to do some of the discussion that needs 
to take place without making someone feel like they are being criticized 
in public.  I wish we could figure out a way around this.

Thinking about it made me realize that a comment I made to Scotty and 
the list at the beginning of this thermal discussion probably falls in 
that category.  Scotty, I'm sorry if you felt criticized.  I didn't mean 
to start an avalanche of comments that were critical of your analysis, 
or criticize you in public especially.  I'm sorry!

Please keep the good discussions going on this list, and I'd really 
appreciate it if some of the rest of you would CC the list with your 
private design discussions if possible!

Thanks,

Rob

I would have a problem if someone blew me off. I suggested ESD terminations early on which were added. We all know the value of them in the cold dry winter up here in the N.E.
