How do you decide what repeater to use to talk to someone sort of far away? Do you just give it a try? Look at a map and find one that is in the middle? Like if I wanted to talk to Salt Lake/Magna/Etc.

The meeting was a lot of fun with about 70 people in attendance. After we went out to purple turtle for some burgers and shakes. My chocolate peanut butter shake was amazing! I would highly recommend it to anyone who thinks they might want to get into HAM radio.

That will work out just great!

we wont be able to be there until the Wednesday after the safari

I will let you know. Someone is supposed to come pick it up tonight, but we will see.

I has been studying a little bit. I checked in on the last new ham net by accident last thursday. I happened to be listening (I do that a lot lately) so I checked in, but couldnt listen for too long. I will need to make one of the meetings. I would probably prefer 80 year old men with...

We bought this mattress a few years ago. It has been good. There is a pillow top on one side. We rotated it end to end every 6 months or so. We are getting rid of it because we got a memory foam. It isn’t perfect, but the price is right. You gotta pick it up before I haul it away.

I have a friend that needs a front JK rubicon housing. LMK

My son thought the certificate was cool. When I told him he could collect them from different people he talks to he thought that was pretty neat. He thinks he wants to start studying for his test :-)

If you want to build a bumper mount tire carrier I have a beefy spindle I would be willing to donate.

I just got my certificate of first contact :-)

WOW:oops:

Why aren't midgets good at soccer? Grass tickles their balls.

In the winter I use a sweet suede leather jacket from the 90s. They can usually be found for free or 5 bucks at the D.I. In the summer I use a long sleeve shirt. If I am getting burned too much then I put on a flame resistant cotton welding jacket which does pretty good at keeping me safe. I...

I am surprised you are getting opinions on RME. Usually such a boring non-opinionated crowd here ;)

The cable Dempsey brought over was a FTDI cable and it worked great on my MAC. I will just buy the same one he had. :-)

Any idea why a 10 foot programming cable would be better than a 3 foot cable? I get that is is longer, but is there a real reason that I am not thinking of that makes it better?

Using the help that unimog sent me on the Chirp program I was able to open it up and get it running. Then Dempsey(the HAM wizard) helped me program everything. He saved me 100 hours of work. He was very patient with each question I had and was crazy smart at HAM stuff. I can't thank him enough.
