heh-heh... I'll have to admit I made a very

stupid decision to stay. When they said it was

cat 2 and heading north and to evacuate here

in Pinellas county, I stayed. I live in what they

call "Zone A", the first to evac., lowest

elevation.


You're down there in Kool Aid's area. I'm down with some of the
southside radios, but in north Pinellas.


I'm in South Pinellas but north side of St. Pete

around the Gandy.

Yep. Next time, I'm seeking higher ground and
better shelter. I'll be taking pictures of the

storm from over thata-way ----.

You and me both. You can caravan with us as we head to South Beach for
the next one.


um... a great big convoy? lol



Why not? We can have a mini-road trip, keep in touch with radios, get
some good grub at a roadside mom and pop joint somewhere in the
sticks,,,like YeeHaw Junction, but then that would be the long way to S.
Beach.

I'm in North Pinellas. What's your home frequency? Send me an email and
tell me if you don't want to display it on the group.


Since I've only just begun getting back into

radio (after 10 years not playin' around with it),
I don't really have a home freq. I usually leave

my radio on 29am when I'm driving and my

friends know to switch there to give me a

shout. This lets me listen to the stereo too. But
I also flip the vfo up a few kc's and ssb to

listen when the skip rolls in.



Welcome back to radio. The frequencies you mentioned in your email I
also occasionally check out.


Also listen to the clowns on 35am.


Addressed in email.


I only get to

play in the vehicle since I live in an apartment.
No base antenna. :-(


How bad ya' wanna talk g? You can always figure something out to get
ya' on the air from an apartment,,,,,maybe a dipole or a temporary
setup, from a mag mount on something to a noground marine mount or maybe
something completely temporary,,,like an antron painted a dark color and
unfurled only at night off the balcony right against the building g .



I'll send you an email with my on air id. (sent)

Not sure where your favorite dx spot is down there, but I'm sure you
know of the prime spots by now. Gandy Beach (The Redneck Riviera) is
pretty good.
