It was nice talking with you this morning. For some reason the antenna on my semi does not perform as well as I did on my last truck even though they are the same model. Just running a 4 foot Firestik. Maybe it's time for an upgrade.
You were sounding great on my end as well!
I heard 399 out of Columbia this afternoon while I was driving east of Houston heading towards Louisiana. He talked to someone in Alabama. Then I heard him talking about his horizontal antenna with someone else. I tried in vain to make contact. The conditions dropped out pretty quickly so I...
I took the ole Chevy ii out for a trip in the hill country northwest of San Antonio this morning. It was a pretty fun ride. There are some good windy roads out there and some good places to kick the four barrel in. Even though my 355 is mild it was still plenty fun. Really wanting a 383 under...
I believe you are correct, it was a few months ago. I have been traveling out to Midland and Monhans a little lately, but I have been taking a different way making the trip there. I was through San Angelo about a month ago but it was all quite at about 10 a.m.
That was pretty neat. Thanks to 339 in Kentucky. I have been close to San Angelo a couple times recently. Ballinger is probably about the closest. One day hopefully I will pass through San Angelo and make a direct contact with you.
I have traveled many a mile this week. Lots of time to play radio, but not too many contacts. Maybe 10 all solid contacts all week long.
Last night I was woke up by thunderstorms around 11pm near Colorado City, Tx. The radio was a little busy
I made a good contact with radio Kentucky 105. I had...
Thanks for letting us know Jeff. I was wondering about him and noticed he had not been on in quite some time and he was on here frequently in the past.
Sad to hear. RIP Robb.
I have tried a few different setups for an antenna on my pickup. A mag mount worked well but it was too tall.
Currently I run a Hustler HQ27 mounted to the front of my tool box. I can't really say whether it works any worse or better than the mag mount. My swrs are no higher than 1.4 on the cb...
Friday was real busy on the walkie-talkie as I made my way from central Louisiana to central Texas. I made a few contacts. Signals were coming from many parts of the U.S.
Yesterday back home just about nothing. I made one contact on 28 AM to northeast Arkansas and that was it.
I didn't have much time yesterday for radio. I took my old car out for a little while. Then I was mowing weeds and spending time with my mom.
I did get few good contacts yesterday.
I talked to a couple of stations in Seattle and talked to Jim 66 in New York.
Of course there were a couple of...
