Christmas I can't even remember his fake web name anymore. Voobner? I see Jay on the web once in a while... and say hi when I have time. Bill E is still whacked in the head and full of technical bs. I doubt he is the real author of much if any material posted on his web page. A fair assessment. Frank was here for a long time and has ****ed off enough people that someone looked up his checkered past and posted much of the military side here on the group. Last post I read found him with crow sandwich and foot in mouth doing a back pedal at full speed. You have the story backwards, Skippy. I voluntarily disclosed my "checkered past" while in the process of exposing Steve Robeson as a USMC imposter. I know you don't care much for facts, but they can be found in the RRAP archives. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Unrestricted-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |

Hello Carl:
Is not a problem. Life is GREAT! I am still here and what not, and doing very well. That last tube you sent me was factory fresh, good gain and output power. I have been working my normal job with heavy machinery and the antennas, and working with some local miners (these guys are a riot to work with) keeping there equipment running for them. We have a rf amp that uses a pair of 3CX3000A7 Tubes for a Spectromoter. It analyzes metal and such. Enough said! Yeah that ought to be fired up one day on the local channel. Gee whiz Carl, that handle 2x4 really brings back memories, from days of old. "Getty Up n Go" a old Country & Western Singer, use to have a stacked set of Moonraker 4 Beam Antennas. He use to call em Two By Four now Getty Up n Go..... Hehehehee. That was feed with a Johnson Viking Valiant, driving a the Johnson 1 kW Amp with a pair of 4-400Z Tubes. Getty Up n Go was located in Long Beach California, and could easily be heard in the San Fernando Valley. After one of our Channel 15 CB Breaks, Getty Up n Go would be all tanked up, and then sing and Yodel over his big base station. Not a bad singer at all. Had a audio input for his Gartar also so the audio quality was broadcast quality. Getty Up n Go even took song requests from Truckers running down Grapevine Hill, from Bakersfield running into the San Fernando Valley. Man what great coverage. Hope all is well with you Carl and your family. Jay in the Great Mojave Desert, ....just down the road ah ways from the fillin station.

The call me everything in the book Sometimes tha call me "2x4" Sometimes they just call me if they need a good hand...then they call me the Radioman...... Howdee.... Carl/N9EFJ The2x4 |

Hello Stevo:
"Fairly Impressive" I held back the best for last! I also Have a 1976 Ford F250 4x4 Hi-Boy, it came from the factory stock with a little lift to the body. So it does sit up higher than normal people trucks. It is a little difficult to get in and out of. But really pays for itself when on a date with a short dress, oh yeah! The Truck has a 96 inch (Modified) Francis Amazer Fiberglass whip antenna, mounted on the cab. Which a fairly large piece of aluminum sheet metal reinforces. With well over thousands and thousands of miles on this buety, it does show it age. But with a 400 HP Big Block you don't mind the gas prices, its a work or art to drive! I have been told when the Red Neck Mobile comes into a 4 way stop, most normal people will gladly allow the Big Green Monster to go before them, even if it aint my turn. Somthing about "This Red Neck Truck Ain't got no insurance or sense" The Yaesu kicks a 8 pill amp, powered by a 150 amp alternator, that will slip the belt and take most cars steroes out within short distance. And put the neddle on the peg for the 1 KW range. Would be nice tho, in the cold rainy desert weather, especially in the early morning if the drivers side had a window! Its a good feeling tho Jay in the Mojave Steveo wrote: Jay in the Mojave wrote: -snip- Getty Up n Go Brings a red neck tear to my eye.

Somthing about "This Red Neck Truck Ain't got no insurance or sense" It must be that green color Jay. I'm partial to the sublime green over here, being Irish, any shade will suffice in a storm. Do you have the neon-green 'on the air' light as a warning to any flying insects? |
