Well, you're certainly right in one sense. Then again, to use the internet, you have to have an internet connection, which may not always be possible. And the same thing can be said for CB too. There are 'pros/cons' for any radio use, and it's certainly not the best answer to all things. It is a very nice 'fall back' alternative though.
If you have an interest in the 'doing' of things, not just the results, it can certainly keep you busy! It's also where a lot of the 'newer' technical ideas come from, not all of them by any means, but more than you might think. How about a duplex capable handy-talky combined with a phone-patch??

[QUOTE="W5LZ, post: 139644, member: 129"] Well, you're certainly right in one sense. Then again, to use the internet, you have to have an internet connection, which may not always be possible. And the same thing can be said for CB too. There are 'pros/cons' for any radio use, and it's certainly not the best answer to all things. It is a very nice 'fall back' alternative though. If you have an interest in the 'doing' of things, not just the results, it can certainly keep you busy! :) It's also where a lot of the 'newer' technical ideas come from, not all of them by any means, but more than you might think. How about a duplex capable handy-talky combined with a phone-patch?? (Cellphone) ;) - 'Doc [/QUOTE]
