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! John-K4JDP |

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 http://www.keele.ac.uk/depts/por/28.htm Also ARRL prop charts http://www.arrl.org/qst/propcharts/ C.L. - Reader Beware -- I doubt, therefore I might be !

... (J P) wrote in : SNIP 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. -------------------------------------------------------------------- 73 C.

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. cuhulin |
I am an extra class with my original novice call.

One of my old Shortwave Radios is a Hallicrafters S-38EB.It still works
real good too.Not for sale though and it will never show up on ebay or anywhere else on the internet either. cuhulin |
Us webbys can click on Clean up in our webtv email in boxes and the
spams including emails that are not spams will appear with little empty boxs to the left side of the emails and we can click on Check all and then the same page will appear with all of the empty boxes with check marks in the boxes and then we can click on Discard and delete all of the emails.Or we can put the check marks in whichever emails we want to discard and then click on Discard and do it that way.We can do that with our wireless keyboards or with our hand held remote controls.I never click on any spams,I always delete them.I never use my computer for emailing and I never will.I can very easily live without emailing.In fact,I wish my computer had NO emailng capability whatsoever.If anybody can design/invent a computer that can do everything computers can do but impossible to use for emailing,emailing in or out,that person or persons will be the richest person or people in the World,Guaranteed! cuhulin |
Computers are Radios too,Gloryfied Radios,so are TV sets.Radius.

HEY,just keep yourself South of I-10! cuhulin |
