Advancing Ham Radio.. different ideas
November 9, 2009 by kb8sfc.
I stumbled upon this blog from KB9MWR today and I found it quite interesting. But then again I’ve been interested in digtal voice for years starting out running an Alinco on 222mhz about six years ago. Currently I have a Motorola Astro Saber on 2 meters running project 25. Since there is zero P25 activity locally on 2 meters I primarily use this radio at Dayton and a few other hamfests.

Received an interesting letter today
November 7, 2009 by kb8sfc.
I haven’t posted here in quite a while since I’ve did almost nothing with ham radio. This may prove to be interesting. I’m cautiously optimistic, I tried to do something similar to this over 10 years ago that didn’t turn out very well. I like the use of the world “lax” this may be the understatement of the year. Amateur radio in the area has been dismal at best in recent years. I’ve gotten to the point where I rarely turn the radio on. But then what do you expect when the local club is mostly in their 70’s and 80’s and meet at 5pm on a weekday. I intend on finding more out about this group and who knows I might even attend the meeting. I personally would like to see more ham activity in the area. The letter is below. More to come as I know it…
