    Quote from chief: “Friday night I brought home a brand new 2016 GMC Canyon pickup (to replace my funky xterra). It does not have a radio, it has an "Infotainment System" complete with an 8" touch screen and a users manual that will take me months to get through. Back in the day, when someone swiped your radio, it was gone. Apparently now it's just a screen gesture. Huh?

    "The ’80s and ’90s were a much more simpler time. If you grew up during those decades, then you remember a world without the internet. You remember a world where we weren’t constantly inundated with information. A world before sharing and re-sharing of posts. A world before the insta-celebrity culture, smartphones, and social media. Overall, it was an easier world where we learned valuable life lessons that kids today will never understand. Below we highlight some key life lessons from our frien…

    Quote from g00gle: “Quote from JimBlue: “Okay, it mentions ham radio licenses. The $15 is for a written test, there are guidebooks for the test. This would be for the Technician license. 2 meters and 70cm bands on the Baefong they mention would work, but there aren't repeaters along all of th trail.
