Well my youngest daughter is now studying for her Tech license. She started tonight and man o man is she excited LOL. Shes all gitty happy she wants that callsign let me tell you.
Its going to take some time but with the help of the others in the house it will all workout great. She also like my son really wants to get into the ISS stuff. Good lord there going to have me busy with setups over here LOL. Im still working on my wifes mobile setup. With being sick on and off it gets a little tough and time consuming.
I think Im just seeting her car up with a 10 through 12 meter antenna for now and need to get her a better 2 meter antenna the one shes working with is ok and was made or altered from a radio shack CB antenna its ok for now. I will just wait and get her something a little nicer by spring.
As far as the kids I am so proud of them for everything they have done with this radio Licensing and other things (hunter safety ,atv,snowmobile ETC) My health is up and down do to Cancer and it makes me feel go to see the accomplish these things and take time to even do them.
I laugh now because I told each kid Ide work on putting them a radio setup together for themselves now Ill have 1 more to do with my youngest LOL. I was always worried about what would happen to all my radio equipment CB/Amateur collection if something should ever happen to me. What would they do with it? Do they know what everything is? Do they know what its worth so there not taken for a ride or just plain ripped off?
There a pretty smart bunch so tghere catching on quick on what everything is so that worries going away. Ill tell you it really grabbed my heart when my youngest daughter grabbed that book tonight and came to me and said daddy?? I looked and there in her little hand was that ARRL Tech study guide what was I to say to that? I about melted and was kind of shacked it caught me off guard..
Anyways Its really awsome and makes a guy feel pretty damn good that he has his family behind him not only in health issues but in this great radio hobby. I will from time to time be posting things in the swap section to help get these setups put together. Being disabled really rots when it comes to not being able to just buy on impulse but with listing things I dont use it will help out with the station buildings I have ahead of me.
Anyways Ive recieved alot of helpfull information and such on this sight alone Ive spoke to some of you buy phone aswell rather it would be technical or just a plain out simple question / converstion this site has helped me to also help my family and others Its a great site and there are a few good sites out there to be a part of when is great I know this is a place where my other family members can go to ask there questions and in return get the answers they were after.
Thanks forum and watch in the future for some new little members.....Tony
