Nice to meet you, fellas! I'd kinda forgotten I had started this topic, and it's nice to hear there are other Hams in this group.
Update - On Dec 2, I took and passed all three exams in one sitting, earning myself an Extra ticket. Just got my call sign issued last week, AJ6AR. Just might keep that one since AR is the first two initials in my name (also stands for "Amateur Radio" :)
The "F Cee Cee" no longer issues paper licenses but my wife is getting my CSCE framed:
Also, you might be interested in the article I found that ran in our home town paper when I first earned my Novice license in 1962:
Today, we're heading to Oakland in the SF Bay Area on a Christmas shopping trip to a Ham Radio Outlet warehouse. Wife said I can spend $2,000 to get my rig and antennas set up. Looking to get an ICOM 7300 as the centerpiece.
Hmm, maybe someone here would know...
Had an RF Systems MLB and it looks like the squirrels took to it like a hickory nut.
RF Systems no longer makes these (might be out of business), but it looks like Palomar makes something similar.
Anyone ever tried the Palomar and if so, does it work well?
