If you paid for something you didn't receive, send it back to them (on their dime) and get what you paid for, plain and simple. ;)

Technically, yes. But, since you were on phone, what was wrong with simply saying "best wishes" or "catch ya later?" I can understand using numbered abbreviations on when tapping out Morse, but phone?

Whoda thunk it? :whistle:

There is no online testing. However, it might be possible for a VE to come to your residence and administer a test to you. Look online to see if any HAM clubs exist in your area.

My guess is that the reason he's asking about modern CB bases is because he intends to operate within FCC rules on 11-meters, as opposed to using 10-meter or other HAM radios (illegally modified) to operate on 11-meters.

Me too. I own one and love it.

I'm a USAF retiree who now works as an engineer with Union Pacific (yes, I play with enormous machines and love every minute of it). :thumbup:

Spandex: it's a privilege, not a right. :D

I smoked Marlboro Reds for about 25 years and quit (last April, when I retired from the military). I used e-cigs as a crutch for about a month or so, then quit those as well. And, yes, my family is very happy about that! :w00t:
