Re: Did you know there are AT LEAST 16 US intelligence agencies?

Some of the 16 are big. The majority are small.

Re: Radio Comms- A Basic Primer

A fire hose it is but it's very rewarding and eye opening. Getting your Ham ticket opened a big world of interesting and like minded people.

Re: Radio Comms- A Basic Primer

Mobile HF is easy with a radio and long wire antenna. 2M is good for talking with your buddies or getting county level information. If you want regional or national info, tap into HF. No ticket needed to listen via SW radio but you'll need General to transmit. PM me if you want to know more.

Yes they won but won't take the field until January. This bill had to get past Harry Reid.

Re: So... Ferguson...

I strongly advise against use of Martial Law. Once that line is crossed and those in power smell public approval because of it, we're next.

Do you have a SSB capable CB? I run twice monthly CB nets to reach more non-licensed people.

Re: 40M Digital Nets

September 2014's Digital Nets will be held on the 7th and 21st at 0000Z. You'll find us at 7.078 USB +1200 using CONTESTIA 4/250. We'll immediately follow at 0030Z with a CB Channel 36LSB voice net.

Anyone with an SSB capable shortwave radio and computer can listen.

It's a 40m net so NVIS should work very well.

Re: 40M Digital Nets

I haven't had check ins with 2M simplex (not surprising) so I thought Channel 36LSB might reach a bit further to non-hams. If you have a shortwave radio, a computer and (free) FLDIGI installed, you can listen and copy any digital message traffic.

Changed the 2030L 2M net to a CB Channel 36LSB net. You do have a SSB CB, right?
