Yep it sure is. Having coffee with the local old fart CW hams, it really
erks a few of em! Thank you FCC.

I passed the below info around on a few ham sites and one guy wrote back,
"Whoppy ****ing doo". I laughed my ass off!


I hear that a lot of the no code techs will be around 28.385 Mc, on the
23 rd

There was lots of skip on CB a few days ago. When these spots come back
around in two weeks, 10 meters should be hopping on the weekend of the 23rd.
Heck, Thursday I made a contact to Nebraska on 38 lower.

One contest club is making it the whole weekend instead of one day. My 2950
is ready to go. How much do I need to trim off a Wilson 1000 to make it
resonant at 28.5 MHz? I can't test it before the 23rd and I need it that day.

I hear that a lot of the no code techs will be around 28.385 Mc, on the 23 rd

The word on this side is to meet on 28.365 USB.
Won't the 10-10 people on 28.370 just love it?

Hello Scott:

I am not saying to interfere with other stations. But I just had to make
fun of the way some of the amateurs are taking the no code testing that
our goverment has handed down.

Gee whiz yeah the Ten Ten Club, they are a Ten Meter Ham Club.
http://www.ten-ten.org/
Hope they will be a help here. What type traffic do they have there on
28.370 Mc USB???? Maybe a net?

I can use all the Ten Meter Band, but it sure needs more activity. Yeah
I'll bet 28.365, 28.375, 28.385, 28.395, and 28.405 will active, maybe?

The equatorial rotation period of the Sun is about 25 days. It slows
down as you go higher in latidtude of the Sun. The Polar regions of
the Sun rotate in about 35 days.

Therefore depending on the latitude of the spots the trek around the
backside may take between 12 and 17 days.

The original (ham) poster was referring to "apartment dweller in " the
same way a lot of other people refer to trailer dwellers as "trailer
trash"

Were those heart attacks caused when they found out that CW was no
longer required to get your ham liscence?

The pro-code hams have been arguing that Galaxy radios are perfectly
legal for hams to use on 10 meters, even though they're illegal for
cb'ers to use on 10 meters.

Well, IF that's the case, then a lot of Galaxy radios suddenly became
legal on 10 meters from a bunch of people passing their ham tests
without having to take a code test.

And we all now how those hams LOVE those Galaxy radios.

I don't think they're legal even for hams since they can transmit in
the 11 meter cb band with more powwer than allowed.

But since the old pro-code hams have been arguing that they are
perfectly legal for hams to use.....

and NoCode hams

I heard that no code hams are allowed to use the 28 mhz frequencies
now,

Although I don't know how accurate that information is or isn't.

By the letter of the Law, they are not type accepted radios. Or better
yet thay have not been certified for the band in which Hams wish to
use them. Therefore are illegal to sell for use in that spectrum.

Still any Ham with half decent skills can build a unit that would tune
the 10M band and out perform any commercial radio built for the CB
market.
