There are hundreds of reasons to own a gun but it’s mostly the reasons I can't think of that make me glad to have them.

You know that little voice in your head that keeps you from saying things you shouldn’t? Yeah, I don’t have one of those…

At this point in time, are you of the opinion that nothing that's come out about Andy or his wife should be looked into in regards to conflict of interest, or, regarding his wife, quid pro quo shenanigans?

She absolutely loves talking all over the place to new interesting people. She's not a fan of the digital modes though she's a "sideband or go home" girl. Moms homeschooling for now! I'm still at the office unfortunately. |

I'm still at the office unfortunately. Indeed I meant you. You must be pretty close because I heard you rather clearly.

we need to make 2 other nets, one at 7.207, the other at 7.217 to catch all the drive-by check-ins that are not ARFCOMMERS![]() Attached File |

Got some 300 Ohm ladder line and some steel copper clad antenna wire from The Wireman, 2 weeks ago. 40 feet above ground should work fine for short range comms. |

So accounting for both amplifier and antenna gain roughly how much ERP were you tossing at me while you were pointed thus way? |

| Maybe if NC would every 5 minutes or so throw out something like "This is a net specifically for members of the arfcom forum. Other hams are welcome to check in after Arfcom members have completed check in.". Perhaps that would discourage random check-ins. |
