LOL , Great story. Really comes to life if you happen to ride a motorcycle- ATTACK OF THE TERRIBLE SQUIRREL I never dreamed slowly cruising on my motorcycle through a residential neighborhood could be so incredibly dangerous! Little did I suspect! I was...

I guess what is different here is that we don't have the kind of faults here as you do so the whole east coast ends up feeling it. We sit on just 1 plate back here.

Experienced my first earthquake today . Sitting at some friends kitchen table everything started moving. My first thought was something was wrong with the house foundation. I told my friend the whole house is moving. Then I figured there must have been an earthquake somewhere. Sure enough. That...

He was a Ham. Later...

It's open here. Listening to a guy talk to Japan.

According to the Yahoo! Groups it is the same radio inside and should be able to use the same unlock software.

Wow ! I just saw this thread was started about 3 years ago ! lol

I had the M117 up until last year. A total of about 5-6 years. My elev. was about 1000ft and I was able to talk to Gettysburg regularly. In fact we used to accidentally interfere with each other's local qso's. The distance was around 80 miles. No extra power. But as I said I had good elevation...

I put one in a closet one time. The closet also contained a vacuum. I plugged it in and it sounded like a pinball machine with the cat hitting the hangers 5ft. up !:lol: ( That really wasn't nice but back then it was funny. )
