The point I was making is that this is the "General HAM Radio Discussion Forum" not cb. Move cb stuff to the cb forums. Thanks.

Do you have an attic? Search for attic mounted antennas. Most are used for V/Uhf but some have had good luck with HF. Also alot of info online about stealth antennas. Wires under gutters, flagpoles, etc. I hung a 10M dipole in my sunroom and made contact to FL. Have also used 2M halo indoors...

Welcome Gene. Are you a native of Hickory? That is where I was born and raised.

Welcome to the brotherhood. I take it you are in the Charlotte area. I was at the show as well. It seemed better than last year, but not near as good as say 15 yrs ago. Like others have said, you can always change your call. I can think of a whole lot worse callsigns. Some I would change before...

This thread must have started in the 1950's when 11M was still a ham band!!

I think NVIS happens on 11M.

Over sized Astro Plane. Isn't that what Timothy Leary piloted?

I thought a freak counter was used to help a bad operator keep up with his friends.

Is that three(3) yaesus? What is the radio in the top right side of the glass cab. The craig looks nice.

Good evening everyone. I'm just wandering. What exactly is a "Gate"?

But these few spots can't explain these great openings!! We have been almost spotless since late 06.

Your doing better than me. I can't even find my meter much less the manual. I gave up looking and bought a new diamond.

Lets see, a Kenwood TS-940, D/A Raider, robyn T-123B(I still have one too), Fannon Fanfare, maybe. Nice.

I'm starting to drool again.

My G3 doesn't have the bi-pod or that fancy stock. Nice shack, love the vintage stuff.

For "Educational Purposes Only" I assume, ha ha. Is a 10 Bud amp more powerful than a 10 Pill?

I would rather have a R-600 than the R-5000. Also, I think the NRD-525 is better than the NRD-535.

I remember when R/S discontinued the DX-160. It was in 1979 or 1980 maybe. $99.95 or something. I wanted to mount one in my '77 toyota landcruiser. I passed up many at hamfests in the '80's. I finally bought one about 10 years ago. Not nearly as nice as the ones I passed up. Such a great looker.

The Dakota Alert base is made as the in house receiver for their long range driveway alert. But it makes a nice little base radio also. I've got one. It's not bad.

The marine and murs should have about the same range, both being vhf. I think the FCC made a mistake doing away with the marine lic. How many 4x4 pickups have you seen sporting base loaded shakspeare whips? Hmm, wander what their using those for?
