        I am interested in finding any post-1975 military tranceivers in
good working condition.  I am interested in the PRC-77, PRC-68, PRC-104, and
the like (I don't need a prc-25...).  A few operateing flaws are ok...I can
fix the radios.....(Probably...;-)  )

        Exterior appereance of "Fair" or better would be really good.....

        I don't need the address/phone number for "Fair Radio Sales".  I've
already dealt with them and they have none of these radios ('cept the
prc-25)

        Anyone having one of these radios for sale, please E-mail me at

        Thank you very much es 73!

Still waiting for my license and have an antennea question...

I have one of those "through-the-glass" cellular lookalike
scanner antennas that I got from Radio Shack for use with my
Uniden scanner.

How will this thing work with an HT at around 5 watts or less?
Too much SWR?

I've got the latest AES catalog and they have HT through the glass
antennas but they also have a tuning/matching adjustment on them.

I'd rather not use these things if there not that good.
Even worse, could these types of antennas damage my HT??
I sure don't want to fry the output stages of my new DJ-580T!!

Does reading rec.radio.amateur.misc cause cancer?

After wading through literally hundreds of postings that contain whining
about the CW requirement, offended responses to attempted humorous
postings (real hams, no-code hams, good hams, bad hams, green eggs and
hams) I believe I feel a tumor growing - right behind my eyes.

Fortunately the American Cancer Society recommends a preventive measure:
the KILL file.  Since I learned about this neat little utility, I can feel
my tumor in regression and even have a couple extra hours in the day that I
have to fill (maybe I could get on the air!)

Prevent cancer -- edit your KILL file!

Notice also how many of them have them installed on the rearwindow
defroster.  I wonder how they ever get them tuned up.  But then again if
they don't know enough to not mount them on the rearwindow defroster,
they probably don't know enough to tune the matchbox.

Are contrary opinions allowed?  I thought it was a load of old rubbish :-)
The only reason for calling it Endurance is that this is what it takes on
the part of the reader to finish the thing.   People must like these QST
stories, they publish them so often, but I find them a real waste of paper.

Nothing personal against the author, I'm sure it was a good example of its
type, I just get no thrill from reading this type of thing in QST.  But then
I have no poetry in my soul.   I'd rather be forced to read the sectional
reports in the fine print at the back.  And the same goes for the "how my
dog learned CW and saved my life" articles too.   

So there,   Well, you asked :-)

Happy Birthday some 3 weeks ago.  He's closing in on 30, and he's

>And yes... Every one of these actually happened.
>Have any others? Email them to me!

Lessee:

9)	No-codes use ATV, packet, and DTMF to control homebrew robots
10)	No-codes experiment with DSP, packet, and satellites
11)	No-codes build battery backed-up power supplies and configure
		antennas for portable and emergency power applications
12)	No-codes help out with public service communications.
13)	No-codes do administrative and crowd-control stuff at VE sessions
14)	No-codes get inner-city kids interested in science and technology
15)	No-code TCP/IP experts build _real_ networks
16)	No-codes practice communications skills on all the repeaters around
17)	No-codes join AMSAT and help fund satellites

Of course, replace 'no-code' with 'ham' in 1-17 above...  :-|

I can't believe anyone pays any attention to posts like Mikey's.  Oh
well, everyone have a real nice day anyway.  Best 73s and Ten Dash
Four!  :+) Does anyone else remember the Dr. Who episode where he goes

 My XYL (N2OEB), son (N2NTD), and I all used our HT's in DW last
summer to stay in touch. Using the repeater, I spoke to them from
a long line inside space mountain, while they were heading for
another ride. It was really great having such good communications
to keep track of each other. None of this "meet me by the clock
in 2 hours" stuff. But, we did keep a low profile while using
the radios, so I can't comment on any security problems.

If someone walked into the Raleigh ARS VE session next week (we give
exams the 1st Wed. on even-numbered months) and asked to do that, I think we
would permit it if the person demonstrated to us that there was no
software on the PC to translate dots and dashes to characters and no
audio recording capability for recording and play-back.

Why?

Because we allow people to use typewriters....including a fully-sighted
person who used to be a military op way-way back and he could not copy code
worth a darn'd by hand, but could happily peck away on his military "mill."

As far as I know, there is no rule forcing a person to use HANDWRITING to
copy code during the test.......

Just as we allow calculators (with any resident 'programs' erased), because
there is no rule forcing a person to do numerical computation 'by hand.'
