I'm always uncomfortable reading flames about legitimate dealers.  I 
bought my last radio, a Yaesu FT-415 from Raul at Jun's when I was out in 
LA several months ago.  They run a very nice operation, with a well-
equipped station.  Raul is very knowledgeable and their prices are quite 
competitive.  They also help out the ham community there donating door 
prizes to hamfests, etc.  Give them a break!
  
It seems to me that hams are the biggest whiners when things don't go 
exactly the way they hoped they would.  Sheeeesh!

Well, taking a look at the mess on 20 meters, where every operator has 
passed at least 13 wpm, that tells me that learning Morse (_NOT_ CW, 
which is an emission type.  It is possible to send ASCII and Baudot on 
CW, for example) is not an effective filter.

    Sanyo coined the term SCR, which is an acronym for Sub-C (which is
    the size or form factor of the cells) Rapid (as in rapid charge,
    which is accomplished by using large-surface-area sintered nickel
    plates among other things).  The Sanyo-recommended rapid charge
    rate is C/1 or a 1-hour charge. They work just fine at several
    times that charge rate, though. Good cells.

    One other note, the higher the capacity of an SCR-type cells, the
    less tolerant of abuse the cell is and the higher (slightly) the
    internal impedence. I.e., the original 1200mah SCR cells were
    just about indestructable (relatively speaking), the 1400mah ones
    were nearly as tough and the 1700mah ones currently being produced
    are a good bit less robust. This is because they use thinner plates
    to increase the surface area and, therefore, the capacity in the
    same form factor cell.

    Well, I guess that's everything I know about NiCd batteries (more
    or less) so I'll shut up now. How's that?

When I was KZ5BA in 1979-71, the CZ Government issued the suffix,
i.e. BA in my case, to any two letters that were not already taken. Most
were GI's in the service, like myself, or US citizens as employees of the
CZ Government or possibly the FAA or DoD. The best way to get info on
any ex CZ stations is probably to do a name search in the call sign
server. The records of the CZ government in the amateur license 
division were probably never archived. If they were saved in any great
detail, I'd be surprized. The best bet is old call books and the
call sign server. When I operated there during those years I QSL'd 
direct since the postage was the same rates as the US and since the
postage was minimal, most CZ stations as I remember, QSL'd direct since
the mail to the US was handled by the military and the US post office
anyway.

John your last statement identifies the problem.  The rotor and antenna 
must be "perched on top of the pole.  Most towers provide a place for 
the rotator to be inside the tower and thus lateral support to the mast that 
holds the beams (beam).  Size of the antenna mast and antennas will be limited
by the strength of the rotator.

Probably the Mizuho SB2M.  The only thing is, however, both the SB2M and the 
IC202 are not multimode radio's, they're SSB/CW only.  Of course, similar in 
size to the IC202 (which I love, BTW!) are the Yaesu FT690/290/790 series 
portables, which are multimode's.  The only thing I dislike about those 
particular radio's is the way they jump frequency down to the next lowest 
step when you change from mode-to-mode.  That kind of make's using them a 
little troublesome to use if you need to switch to, say, CW from USB to 
complete a contact.

Oh, for the OF's out there - Yes, people do use mode's other than FM and 
packet on the VHF/UHF bands, but you probably just haven't heard them on 
your personal rip-eater, whilst talking to Fred who lives half-a-mile down 
the road from you...

  If all you truly care about is receiving CB you will find that it is

There is one fact that remains in the Junz (sic) Electronics saga:

The product Axel purchased was clearly used when he received it - yet *HE*
did not get the "used" price.  When Axel returned his product, he was
refunded the "used" price.

Any store that can sell something and then credit back less than what
they sold it for -- AND repeat the process! -- is clearly ripping the
HAM community off (thoughts are not my own - borrowed from D. Horowitz)

It is nice to be able to see their response to this issue (good thing
businesses like this *CAN'T* post on internet) - but they do NOT deny
selling a clearly used product in the first place, as Axel illustrated.

Although I have never had any business dealings with the retailer in
question, I have heard enough verbal discussion regarding them on the
local 2M systems to stay way clear.  It would appear from this case,
though, that their business practices are less than honest.

If your object is to learn code using these mnemonics, are you sure you
want to do so?  To learn the sounds gives a more direct path to parsing
code.  To use mnemonics simply adds a layer between comprehension and the
code.  This can become important when trying to increase code speed.

Axel returned a radio within a few days of purchase, and he
received a full refund.  He returned the software more
than 30 days later, and was charged a restocking fee.  (or whatever
you want to call it)  I don't see how he was "ripped off" by
Jun's.

Remember that:

1) A retailer is not required to refund anything after 3 days.

2) When a retailer gives refunds on software, he is inviting
the customer to rip HIM off.  The software can be copied,
effectively giving the customer free software if the retailer
refunds it.  Jun's policy is quite liberal and pro-customer.

3) When you buy software, notice the various warnings that
come with it. e.g. "AS IS BASIS", "NO WARRANTY", "NOT
RESPONSIBLE FOR DAMAGES", etc.  These warnings are a result
of law suits from the late 1970's when software was
first sold at retail outlets.

I'm sure there are several 1x2 and 2x1 calls in the 6th call area that are
not being used. (W6AM amoung them) 

However, due to the way the FCC issues call signs, these are not likely to
be reissued in the near future. I believe the FCC is now issuing AA6xx calls
in this area. (Those may have been used up by now, and they may be issuing
AB6xx calls)

Of course, all is not lost -- for all those AA#xx calls are "good" ones, too.
