Posters Locations
 

Am new to this group, and was wondering where each poster is located for
reference of conditions, skip, etc.

I'm located in Viera, Florida a new town, 18.1 miles due west of Cocoa
Beach, FL (where I work) and ca. 50 miles due east of Orlando, Florida.

Using a Kenwood R-2000 and MFJ-1020C for SWL and a Kenwood TS-830s and
Buddipole antenna for hamming (which is very limited here.) Licensed as
ham since 1965.

Thanks in advance!

I am not sure what good it would be to know poster's locations.

But for skip conditions etc, the beacon systems around the world are great
real time indicators

See NCDXF/IARU Beacon Network
http://www.ncdxf.org/Beacon/intro.html

G3USF's Worldwide List of HF Beacons

Also

I am curious about the inclusion of your e-mail address without any
attempt to keep spam-bots from purloining it, thereby risking inundation
with spam?

This is the one reason many posters use an alias and no e-mail address --
also to avoid harassment should some nut get offended by your posts.

Also your FCC license number change. Perhaps I am showing my
ignorance (most likely), but does your FCC number change as you progress
to higher levels, did it expire and was reissued, or is your call sign a
vanity sign?

Callsign allotment can be found at QRZ.com http://www.qrz.com/index.html
Look under DETAILED INFORMATION then CODE to determine vanity calls etc.

P.S. QRZ now lists Ham e-mail addresses in picture form (jpg or bitmap) to
foil the spam-bots.


An amateur does not have to change calls as they upgrade.
One may first obtain a Tech license and receive a 2x3 sequential call sign.
e.g. KA#AAA
Should they upgrade to a higher license, they may elect to retain their
original call.

Us webtv users do not get viruses like computers get,no hard drive,thus
cannot download any computer viruses with webtv.We do get spam and junk
mails though.It is possible to forward an attatchement in an email from
webtv to computer users but I have never (to my knowledge anyway) done
anything like that before and I have been useing webtv since October
1999.There is a website (I forget which one right now) where I can send
websites/URL's to and find if it has a computer virus in it before or if
I want to forward a website to computer users.Webtv and computers
compliment each other.I use webtv and I also use my computer.Both have
advantages and both have disadvantages.

I am an extra class with my original novice call.

I put my location in my signature since I mostly post here and people
like you want to know.

Cincinnati, OH, using a Grundig Satellit 800 and a 50'
long wire with a 9:1 transformer. Still have my old
Realistic DX-440 for usage with the kids, and a
Hallicrafters S20R Sky Champion in, um, a need of
a bit of work.
