That's one hell-of-a treasure trove on QRP. Nicely done, Ghutch. :thumbup:

:laugh: As a general rule, if you haven't waited a month for your callsign, you're being impatient. I will ask this, though: have you looked yourself up in the ULS database License Search? If you're already in there, you can broadcast on the frequencies you're allowed. It's quite...

LOL, back in the days of the TRS-80, 8K (not 8MB) of RAM and only disk drives were the norm. And there is a sick part of me that would love to back and try loading a program via a tape-drive, but at least 720K disk drives were more the norm at that point. My first computer was a Timex Sinclair...

He didn't build that!!! :D

Personally, I think the first rule of thumb is to rule yourself out first. If you can temporarily run your radio on a car battery or an UPS (Uninterruptible Power System), cut the power to your house and see if you can still hear the interference. Assuming you're not the source of the...

Don't push more than 2 watts into your low-drive amplifier.

Doesn't seem likely... seems more to do with hydraulics or some kind of piping (just my $0.02). Columns & Towers

In other words, you believe everything you read on the internet? What a shame. To add insult to injury, your "source" is a blog, of all things. Do you believe in chemtrails as well?

Congrats!!! :D

"It all has to do with responsibility as these politicians have the most prestigious job in America..." Yeah, I keep saying that to myself every time I tune the channel. I keep saying it to myself in the hope that, if I say it loudly and often enough, I might just believe it. Why do we...

Psycho, this isn't 1996. Far more Americans have their eyes wide open. Incidentally, the current issues isn't the debt ceiling -- that'll come on the 17th of October. The current "issue" is the fiscal funding of the government.

Man uses CB radio to seek help after wrecking; gets a surprise on the other end - YouTube

I'm pretty sure the world's economy won't collapse under the weight of the three or four potential licensees that might have to wait an extra week or two to get their new call-signs added to the ULS database. Oh, the humanity. (sarcasm /off)

I have to admit I'm a little lost, here (okay, maybe a lot): While a license is required to transmit on amateur/professional-band frequencies, it isn't required for listening in on those frequencies. In fact, IIRC, there's an FCC provision in place that allows American citizens to "listen" to...

The government has been shut down 17 times since 1976, people. Get a grip. Our precious federal government will still be alive and breathing after this shut down too. Don't worry, it'll be revived in plenty of time to push us all into the financial disaster that is inevitably coming. What's...

Awesome, congrats!!! :thumbup:
