Howdy Ya'll!

Yep sometimes you just can't get rid of them this one is dated the day Kennedy was killed

 

Well, you sure have me beat on that one, Bruce. Got my first one in '64. Don't have a clue as to what the call sign for that one was now. . .

I don't really have a "shack" either. Never have. I do have three mobiles and one HT. I stick to 2M and 70cm, as they are all I have. I'm really not into it all that much. But I do enjoy getting out in the back country on my ATV and seeing where I can hit a repeater.

The main reason I got into ham, was because I missed not having a radio in the car. After years of LE, the radio just seems to become second nature.

It's funny. Most folks, when they think of cops, thing of them always "packing." Most of the time, I don't. But I sure do feel "deprived" if I don't have a radio around. . .

 

Since I came off the road, I've been working 7 days a week in a depot~I'm lucky if I can remember my own name

 

The years fly by ...... I have just 5 years to go and i'll retire from the jail.
I started electronics school in 63 things ran on TUBES .....
My early stations were built from 1950's stuff...
You can find me when time permitts tinkering with that old stuff.
