I work across the street from the warehouse where they shoot NCIS. They
are our neighbors.

The upshot is that when a wireless mike using NiMH cells on live TV
goes south, it screws up your TV show. That's reasonably relevant, I
thought.


You're pretty stupid if you don't charge rechargeable batteries in radio
mics before every live show.

Thank you for putting that so delicately! :-D

Well, then, I guess I'll get a 50,000 watt transmitter, and
open up on 1170 AM, and ask for a smokey bear check?

Would I use alkalines, or NiMH?

How about dead shows?

And what about rechargables in CB radio?

There was a CB-er, this is in the early 70's, in St Charles,
Missouri, who used a highly modified Collins transmitter, with about
5kw output on the band. They called him "Echo" because he had a
Echoplex on everything that he put into his rig. He transmitted
music, sound effects. Harrassed truckers.

Charley came to town and that's all she wrote. I've got audio of
him somewhere. Not pretty.

Somewhat less fun, but much more orderly.

I had a walkie that would take alkalines or rechargeables.
Performance was the same when fully charged. But output was more
uniform until death, lacking the slow decline of alkalines.

Rechargeable life was less than practical for long days in the
field.

A couple decades ago, about 1980, I think it was. I had a
couple CB walkies, and tried using them on nicad AA cells.
The walkies were good for about an hour of chit chat. Not
all that useful.

I got about 2. But then, when I'm in the woods, chit-chat isn't
really what I'm there for.

Except for the CB channel the 18 wheelers use, there isn't anything on
CB around here worth listening to.I almost never turn on any of my CB
radios anymore.

Well, not exactly. When I go off to the woods it's for the
solitude, the quiet, and a little deep DXing.

Hunting is not really my style, unless food is otherwise in short
supply. Which it can be in January in the North Woods.

I've only had to kill what I eat a couple of times.

And I don't think they'll ever let me in that WalMart, again.
