I ran across this on the net.





- you buy electrical black tape in ten packs.

- you've stripped wire with your teeth.

- you’ve told your son that, "One day, all this will be yours", and he doesn't respond.

- you'd rather help a buddy put up a new tower than mow the lawn.

- you've grabbed the wrong end of a soldering iron.

- you start giving out RST reports when you are on the telephone.

- the propagation forecast means far more to you than the local weather forecast.

- the microphone or visual aids at a meeting don't work and you rush up to the front to fix it.

- you tell the XYL, when she notices a new rig in the shack, why that has been there for years.

- your watch is set only to UTC.

- at night, when you pray, it starts off something like: CQ CQ CQ GOD DE (your callsign).

- you ever had to patch your roof after an antenna project.

- Ham radio magazines comprise more than 50% of your bathroom library.

- you ever put a GPS tracker in the XYL's car, just so you could watch her on APRS.

- you and the XYL took a cruise so you could visit the radio room.

- you ever tapped out HI in Morse on your car horn to another ham.

- you ever had an antenna fall down.

- your teenager refuses to ride in your car because it looks like a porcupine.

- you know the Latitude and Longitude of your home QTH.

- you go into the local Radio Shack store and the clerk asks you where something is.
