I was at church. (If you are a fan of Blue Oyster Cult or just good hard rock you may like this band. And no, they are not satanic, they just sing about the dark lord a lot).

So, when you give the antenna height of your antenna, do you give it from the base of the antenna (input) or the tippy top? Also, what matters on a vertical, the tippy top or the whole shebang? From what I understand (I'm just a Tech) the antenna tippy top is important to have clear of...

Hell, I'll just take the poster!

I understand Apple hate but to think Dell built them any better is crazy. My last MacBook went 8 years and I only sold it because I wanted a faster machine. My current is a 2015 model and it is fast and bulletproof. Anyone that has taken a Mac apart has to to appreciate their build quality.

Did you say PINK? My daughter may like that.

Hahah, of course not. I doubt the dude is wealthy. :whistle:

Trump has shortlisted this guy for a presidential pardon, no doubt!

Oh that is what the net is for! Net control will give you feedback, but 40LSB most evenings is active! 0630 local on channel 16 for old 23 channel crystal SSB radio and then at 7 the big net starts up on 40LSB. Tell them 213 sent ya! I only have a mobile rig but DM me and we can work out a time...

If it existed, I'd make the buffoon the noise blanker switch.

Hey, Tim, 213 Adam in Renton/Covington! Do you check in on the Puget Sound 11m Net on Saturdays, 7PM local?

So, if you could pick up either one of these radios for "near as makes no difference" which one would you go for? The electrolytics have all been gone through on the Yaesu.

I'd put in the biggest ugliest dish I could find and then put my radio antenna up off that. Then ask them if they want me to get rid of the dish eyesore in exchange. I think I may get some takers!

Mudfoot, there are two radios there - the 990 has a single speaker. The 510 is the dual speaker... they both have a sync circuit. Can't wait read the reviews!

I'd wait a month or two and check out one of these: https://swling.com/blog/2020/01/tecsun-pl-990-and-h-501-what-we-know-so-far-about-the-upcoming-production-run/ I have a Drake SW8 but can't resist wanting one of these.

F BARJAN!

Yes, Seattle has an active core group! The channel 16 at 0630 local is the Old Timer's 23 SSB vintage check in... only classics! At 0700 local, the Puget Sound 11m SSB net (lower 40) is run by my pal Joe, 312. We get between 20-40 people from the region who check in. Good peeps.

Don't get me wrong 357, the Cadillac was fast, comfy and handled well - but it overheated once (and I take care of my cars) and blew a piston out the side. I'd buy a new one as they're better now but I just can't bring myself too. I'm back to being a plain old Chevy man!

A 1994 Cadillac STS with an early Northstar. Pain and misery - on the plus side it finished off my marriage.

If you were in the Seattle area I'd lend whatever hand I could. Good luck to you!

Legroom like I've never seen in a bug!
