You're welcome,Mark. Don't let the bigots and wanna be's get to you.

I don't atleast not for long
Hey
man, you ever work tropo on 2 meter ssb?

I have some would have done more this winter but shal we say my attnena
was not wearther proof enough
I have 11 elements on the flat side
and a 250 box I run with my kenwood. The ssb on 2 is kinda cool.

what I have done was intersting not the range usesometime see on 6 but
suprising steady ranges much longer than I expect even with my poor
anttena fro 2m SSB having to consult the buget dept (otherwise known as
the XYL) but since I realy want a 440 antena of about 18db ( i rely
want to try digtal Moonbounce I think with 18 db and the Icom 910h I
wwill have enough powere to work a few of the big stations EME and
without CW
A bunch of
us got our tickets at the same time and we meet here on channel 39lsb and
then QSY over to 2 meters. Sometimes we chat on 39lsb and laugh at the old
farts griping about cw and the no code techs. They're pretty funny. They'll
be even funnier after the code is dropped. I have my general as soon as the
code is dropped.

me to if not my extra aswell I have both CSSE's but passed the extra
first as it happens had to retake my general at anoter later session
so I may have to retake the extra if the FCC does get moveing but heck
I will manange
Anyway dude don't let the gay bashers and bigots get you
down.I'll talk radio with you anytime you want.
