5.  Assist CDF in communications during fire emergencies.
6.  Inspect rural homes to advise homeowners of proper vegetative
clearance around structures and safe incinerator standards.
7.  Inspect equipment such as chain saws, lawn mowers, and tractors to
see that they are equipped with legal spark arresters and in fire safe
conditions.

     Volunteers may apply time spent working in the VIP program
toward experience needed to meet entrance requirements for future
forestry examinations.  Citizens performing voluntary fire prevention
duties are covered with Workers Compensation Insurance.
Unreimbursed expenses incurred may be considered "contributions" for
Federal and State income tax purposes.

     The VIP Amateur Radio program is an important program in
several of California's 22 Ranger Units.  Some Amateur Radio operators
serve as "shadows" with battalion chiefs and fire information officers.
(See Bulletins 161, 164, and 208.)  Many VIP communications
volunteers are in a RACES unit.  The VIP can turn to the RACES for
mutual aid support and vice versa. The "radio officer" in a VIP unit is
called the "hamco" or ham coordinator.  In some counties the county
RACES unit and the VIP communicators are one and the same. Both
activities have training requirements to assure safety, compliance with
the incident command system, (ICS), and commonality of operations
and performance.

Absolutely, on 20 M on up. In certain situations it solves some space problems
gets the signal up in the air, and no radials. If you own your own home and

Nothing like real numbers I always say. I went out and measured my
dirty garage floor, bare concrete, when dry. The result was 5 Megohms
per foot. Then I poured a cup of tap water on the floor and measured
again, 50,000 ohms per foot. So tap water on a dirty concrete floor
does reduce the resistance, but I still wouldn't call 50 kohms a
*very* good conductor. It's low enough to give you a jolt if you were
barefooted and grabbed a live 110 VAC wire, but a 12 volt battery
could only push .00024 amps across it, hardly copper.

    I think it goes back to when battery cases were made of glass.  It was
    too easy to break the case if it was setting on concrete.

    I get hassled every year by my fishing group in Minnisota.  I charge my
    battery each nite on the concrete basement floor, and each morning some
    do-gooder corrected my mistake and put a piece of wood under the
    battery.

Most mechanics seem to think that setting a battery on wood is a Good 
Idea; among other things, it absorbs the shock when setting it down, and 
it gives a way to get your fingers under it when you go to pick it back 
up...

Hmm, as near as I can tell, "National Simplex" is the _only_ frequency
that's guaranteed to be simplex, all other so-called 'simplex'
frequencies are 'local option' repeater inputs or outputs.  Are there
really 'simplex' subbands on which you will _never_, anywhere in the

A couple of tongue-in-cheek posts got what few brain cells I have left working
and I do have a question for the group.

I live in an apartment and have curtailed any HF operating because of terrible
RFI generated by color TVs in the area, my own included. I'm not talking about
the 3.58 mHz oscillator (or whatever the freq is), I'm talking about s9+
garbage all over the spectrum. I contacted the manufacturer of my own set
and was told, basically, 'too bad'. Now if I remember right, there is
something in FCC regs (part 19????) which states ".... No device shall
cause interference to nearby receivers of good engineering design" or
something like that. Am I getting old/senile and just don't remember the
regs (it was about 30 years ago that I studied all that stuff) and are
the manufacturers just ignoring the regs? Also, if anyone has a cheap
and easy cure (I can't tell everyone to not watch TV, much as I would
like to), I'd love to hear about it.

probably just a typo, since the powers that be must have thought of this,

anyone know what the real frequency is?

With few exceptions (Amateur and the 1750m experimenter services come to 
mind), ALL transmitters MUST be type accepted for use in that service.  
Therefore, you can NOT use your Ham rig on CB.

Marine band also requires type accepted radios, and a license for them as 
well.  You can't legally use your 2m rig in the marine band under normal 
circumstances.

Ah, the term "emergency"...  If you were out sailing and someone got 
hurt, you could then turn to 156.800 (marine channel 16) and call for 
help on your HT (assuming that you don't have a "real" marine radio, of 
course).  97.403 and 97.405 allow you to use whatever you have to get 
help in an emergency.  FYI, 27.065 is CB channel 9, and 27.185 is CB 
channel 19.

Ah, but these were not RV type batteries. Wood is a very good thermal insulator, a
few mm makes a big difference. Ground temp here in the winter gets down as low as
-10 deg. In the summer it rarely falls below zero, in the winter we often get a
light frost with the temperature just below freezing, eg -2 degrees.

21.0-21.5, 28.0-28.5, 28.5-29.0. Other freqs (i.e. WARC, MARS, CAP,
Marine) available with field Xtal changes.

	Power out 150 W SSB, 120 W Morris, 80 W Packet, AMTOR.

	Digital Freq display - analogue dial for backup. 

	Break-in Morris
	
	USB/LSB

	RIT

	Internal Speaker

	Switchable Xtal RX filters 2.7, 1.8, 0.6 Khz.

	Power 12-14 V 1 Amp RX, 22 Amps TX (Average on SSB 7 Amps)

	Size 8.5 X 3.2 X 8.4


	Price $795.00

	First Delivery November 1992

Call (619) 944-9622


	While I was looking the radio over, the Pres' of AES was trying
to set up a deal to sell them through their stores. But will be
