LYNYRD SKYNYRD did not have their names on the event shirt because they didn’t make any money from them so you had to buy one of their shirts if you wanted something with their name on it.
Funny thing about 6 meters is that Lee-KZ4RR & I live about 30 miles apart & we have chatted many many times over the years & we never met face to face until we were both at Dayton Hamvention in 2013. We traveled that far to actually meet face to face. I met several others with the 6 meter crowd...
Besides being very active on Amateur Radio I am a Performer/Solo Vocalist & I perform Classic Country Music & Traditional Southern Gospel Music. I also Love fishing for Largemouth Bass when my health allows it. I find that I'm most relaxed when I'm on stage performing & the larger the crowd the...
I think Farmville is a game of some sort but I don't play games either so it's a guess since I seem to remember seeing someone talking about it somewhere once. Yes, many FT8 stations are Unattended once they get it going. The set it & forget it which as we all know is not legal but so many...
They brought one to Orlando Hamcation several years ago & they said they sold very few of them but some did take advantage of them. I'm putting a LIL TARHEEL HP on my pickup this coming week so at 1 lb 9 ozs I don't think I'll need one. I'm replacing the Four Hustler antennas, 6 meter 1/4 wave...
Be VERY Careful. There is some SERIOUS High Voltage in that amplifier that will KILL YOU Grave Yard DEAD & Fast. If you don't know what you are doing then leave it to a Professional since they get paid to save lives.
When the touch screens start failing it will be mostly after the radios are no longer in production & no longer covered under the warranty so even locating a replacement could be a very expensive repair if you can even locate one. They have had several issues with some of the screens on the ICOM...
I avoided it like I do with all Contests & Nets. I am a DX Chaser & don't play with either of those. I'm a Former Contester & Contest Winner on VHF & I burned out on it long ago.
I own an ICOM 7000 & if it fails I'll find another one because I have Zero desire to own any other mobile. I have owned (4) of them over the years & .it's the ONLY HF & beyond mobile I will ever use again. I had a Brand New Yaesu FT-891 & I never even put any power to it before I Sold it. I...
9 over 13? I'd love to see a picture of what that looks like on an S Meter. I have been playing radio since 1965 & I have never heard of such a report? Sounds like something somebody just made up because they don't know how to read the S Meter or something because there is No 13 on any meters...
I just found the long version Today in a friends shed from his estate. He became a SK in March of 2023 & a friend & I are trying to sell his gear for his wife. It's in very good condition with the heavy duty spring attached to the base of the antenna. I don't know what we will do with it but...
I don't know what version they had but they said they did not like them so they returned them. They both said they were Over prices & a bunch of Hype but they did not say in what ways? I respect their opinions so I decided I would not buy one myself. I don't need another HT anyway since I only...
I have 154,000 miles on my 2007 RAM 1500 Quad Cab with the HEMI. I just replaced had the entire rearend rebuilt & it cost me $3500 but other than a water pump & some AC work it's the only major issue since I purchased it New in 2007. The motor & transmission are both strong so I'm planning to...
