Unfortunately, Pittsburgh is entirely TOO cracka to have any DECENT riots - EVEN for a Stanley Cup. :p THURSDAY night might've been different, had we won at home - there were 20,000 people in the Consol, and 50k MORE outside it, but when you win on the road, you just get a buncha drunks...

An ALL time classic!

Been busy four-wheeling the Ramcharger I spent 9 years resto-modding, which is why I haven't been here as much of late (the Galaxy 949/Fatboy combo works GREAT though!), but I saw this Saturday night, and it was TOO funny. Another BAD 1960's sci-fi movie (The Creeping Terror, 1964)got gored by...

- SILENT. :unsure: I can remember 25-30 years ago down in the Charlotte area, when a 3" snowfall would set my radio on fire with traffic. Only 7" here in the South Hills of Pittsburgh this morning... ... but I've been scanning ONLY the CB frequencies on my BC355C scanner for 2 hours...

FOOD for thought, for the "cellular addicted." Homeland Security Conceals “Secret Plan to Cut Cell Service” During Emergencies Keep those Hams & CB's warm, just in case the alphabet agencies suddenly decide you DON'T need cell service... (n)

They're blowing up a pretty big bridge in Pittsburgh today - kill some time & watch it live, here! http://www.wpxi.com/videos/news/live-channel-11-news/vwtNM/ :p

JUST starting on Retroplex, for those with cable or dish and movie channels! :LOL:

... set your science projects back an hour! :whistle: ... because I forgot to. :censored:

Was over in eastern OH, and came across an ANCIENT, out-of-the-way truck stop. As gas in OH is $.30/gal. cheaper, I filled up there, but curiosity got the better of me; I HAD to see if they had CB gear! :D Well... they did... sorta... by someone I've NEVER heard of before. They had a COUPLE...

Words fail me... Couple who took pet snake for swim in Pa. river say it vanished "Which brings me to my NEXT point: DON'T... SMOKE... CRACK!"

Been hatin' since 2003!!! Ohhhhhh brudda... :rolleyes: Bus Messages Called Offensive When Read Backwards PROBABLY speaks more, to how OFTEN Pittsburgh drivers check their mirrors. Once every TWELVE YEARS, apparently... :whistle:

The new thread on "edible weeds" got me to thinking about this, so I thought I'd post it here. Two USEFUL - & nominally compact - books for the BoB that the WHOLE family can use, would be OLDER copies of the Boy Scout Handbook, and Boy Scout Fieldbook. I was a 37 year member of the BSA...

Possibly the BEST overall site - and Rawles DOES cover COMMS, including Ham, CB, GMRS, and others - is Jim Rawles Survivalblog.com. Because he also knows his limitations, he solicits subject matter experts to chime in, which allows questionable info to be corrected quickly. His archive of info...

http://www.armslist.com/posts/4238294/pittsburgh-pennsylvania-misc-for-sale--regulated-power-supply---75amp--price-drop---again-- Brand NiB - bought it as an impulse buy, and have never used it. GREAT for clean, spike-free/hiccup-free power for sensitive Ham equipment! $90 FTF - can't...

Didn't even realize these existed (23 channel CB's, that is) until about 2 years ago. Getting into CB's in the late '80's, I just figured they ALWAYS had 40 channels! :eek: ANYwho... here's a few crappy pics I picked it up for the INCREDIBLE low price of, 'on the house.' Belonged to a...

I got this used, to be a mobile in my wife's van, so it's NOT life or death, BUT... Is it POSSIBLE to de-scramble the 800mhz on a Uniden BC355C? It receives those frequencies, but you get the "electronic motorboat," because it can't de-scramble them, like my BCT15X's can. Everyone around here...

So I know it's supposed to be an imitation Palomar, but I have no experience with the REAL thing - much this... "whatzit." A few photos, for clarification; If it LOOK familiar, feel free to sing out with specs, warnings, mfg., details, age - anything ELSE you happen to know about it! I...

And BEST of all, YOU get to fill in the blanks! :p So's I picked up a nice, older, Phillipines-made model (like Cobras, I figured Phillipines > Chinese), and am looking for the lowdown on it. Search-fu reveals LOTS of people trying to add channels or power to it - I just plan on sticking it in...

I was waiting to make a good first post, and I ALMOST came on here begging for help last night... when at LONG LAST, it came to me in a flash of brilliance; I figured out HOW to program my Uniden through my computer (yes, I have the RadioReference premium subscription)!!! :D:D:D So NOW I'm just...
