    What have you done today to be prepared?

    My grandma used to put green beans, corn, onions and pepper in crock. She called it mixed pickles. She would toss a handful in a skillet with some bacon grease and serve it with supper. It's making my mouth water thinking about it.

    CB FM Mode

    Haven't heard anything here on either of the "suggested" calling channels 1 or 24. About all I've been able to catch on 26.805 is a couple kerchunks, just carrier, no one talking.

    Field Day This Weekend ...... and no threads here .... lol

    I always find it interesting how many times 10 meters suddenly is open on Field Day and just the day before you'd loose your voice calling CQ with not a single response.

    E. coast propagation is always better, why?

    I've never lived on the west coast but they sure seem to work the Australia and Japan stations plenty of times while my calls go unanswered. Maybe there's just more Europe stations with their antenna's aimed to the east.

    A dream no more.../First SW Pickups

    Welcome to the radio hobby, that's how it starts listening. With me it was clear channel AM stations back when AM was still king and FM hadn't even become a thing for broadcasting.

    Reclaim LSB 16

    I heard a couple stations here in VA around 12:00 12:30 today. They were having some trouble getting each other clarified in. Another station and I tried to contact either or both but they never heard me. Band seemed to close down right after that since I didn't hear anyone or anyone heard me...

    More activity on the way

    Haven't heard much here on east coast other than the spanish guys that seems to be filled with ghost talkers. Did manage to get a coast to coast contacts on 17 mars, but really looking forward to 11 and 10 opening up.

    Delta M2 Mic audio

    Ok at least I know it's not just my imagination. I get good reports on the audio too. Guess it's like waiting for the ping to finish on a Browning.

    Delta M2 Mic audio

    Just got a new Delta M2 mic and noticed the audio takes about 1/2 second to start after the push to talk button has been pushed. As long as you remember to wait just a bit the mic has good audio but if you don't wait you'll loose the first few words on your transmission. Any one else noticed...

    Check this old CB catalog out !

    Looking at what radio's sold for back then kind of makes the price of a new Stryker seem less expensive.
