Ham Radio
 

Pass my Tech and General licence last Friday.

Received my FCC callsign today:

KB1ZBW


Any other hams here??

Congratulations, good work :salute:

Wotta ham! :O:

Seriously, have fun with it. :rock:

I have a valid vhf restricted operator's certificate.

Same

That's awesome blkdimnd. I did not know ham radio was still something people enjoyed and participated in anymore. :hmmm:

It's as big as ever, I hear. Congrats on your certificate!:up:

When I was a kid it was not unusual for homes in the neighborhood to have a large antenna on the house or set up in the yard. I do not see them much anymore.

You should really tell more.

I always thought ham radio was something you built from kits and just went broadcasting. Didn't know you need a licence inland ???

I'm contemplating instaling a CB station in my car :hmmm:

I think a CB does not require a license.

Certainly not necessary in the UK

Ah ... you mean in your Clio,Rgr that.

I spend a lot of time on the highway. A two hour drive just to get to my school.

But where to mount it. I think I'll have to throw out the speedometer and ODO counter to make room :hmmm:

Haha..:up:

They dropped the license way back in the '70's for CB operaters in the U.S.A.
I had one then 2 months later?
POOF!
:doh:
