- I have had one for about 8 months now and it has worked flawlessly. The
- only problem (which has just surfaced) is that it appears to have some
- dirt in a couple of the buttons and behaves somewhat erratically on two

- But this doesnt explain why the repeater might sound _better_ when

- off frequency. I suggest resetting the CPU before anything else.
-
- Also, FM on VHF is narrow banded.

- Subject: Hamradio with deer hunting!
- To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
-
- Hello to all you hams!
-
- I went deer hunting with my father (KA5ZEH) last weekend in Texas and decided
- to take another hobby with me: Hamradio!
-
- We both had TH28's and decided to use them for two reasons: 1)emergencys
- 2) To call eachother when one of us was ready to go.
-
- It worked out really well. There wasn't any interference with static (due to
- the dtmf squelch) and it didn't interrupt the hunt.
-
- I have posted this because I believe that there is someone out there that likes
- to hunt too. I wish I could tell the story better but . . . . you know how
- college students are. Hi!
-
- I also took my Ten-Tec Omin-D with me and erected a home-made dipole. It worked well. I had contacts with: K3SFS, N7YGE, KA1NTA, & KM6YI .
- Each person was on a different band (ecpt. K3SFS & N7yge which were on 10 m)
- The others ranged on 15m and 40m. BTW, this was a 40m diploe that I erected,
- but of course, I used an ant. tuner.
-
- Well 73 All and good luck with all.
- Merry Christmas and have a safe Happy New Year.
-
- Mark

- To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
-
- For the past couple of years this one guy ( who everyone knows ) has
- been causing malicious QRM on 80 40 10 and 2 meters...using others
- call signs, doing everything possible to irritate everyone and daring
- everyone to 'do somthoing about it' ... then proclaims we can not.
-
- He now practically owns a local repeater, that a club has put a lot of\
- time/effort/money into.. and we've run out of legal ideas to have him stop.
-
- I don't wanna hear jazz about 'go pin his coax' ... go 'speak to him' ...
- as he's been spoken to many many many times.... and when he was a CBer, the
- CBers shot his antenna, roped his antenna, and someone cut out a 5 foot
- section of his coiax, replaced it with black garden hose.... and he came back
- for more, worse than before.
-
-
- WHO do we send our logs of all his doings to?
-
- Some of us have been logging all his qrming, and it's gotten to where it's time
- to send this in to some one.
-
- Do we send this to the ARRL...if so WHO? Can it be done via Internet?
- Or by US Mail?
-
- I've been asked to ask here, and will forward USFUL replys back...

- If you are not willing to work within the system to come up with a

- research on the subject, you would know the answer. Since your comments

- If you took the time to find out you would know that LIC's, after
- entering an agreement with the OOC and FOB can deal directly with the
- FOB.
-
- If the state of the Auxiliary in your area is as bad as you say, it is
- the fault of the more experianced hams in the area that have failed in
- their responsibilites. (And ALL of THEM have at least 5 WPM code by the
- way).

- As a ham, and particularly as a ham who occasionally has been known to
- fire up the 4-1000A/833A rig and run 1000 watts of AM on the ham bands
- (at least before the power law changed), I am appalled that another ham
- would make this misinformed statement.
-
- I used to be heard in things ranging from the telephone to the kitchen
- oven, and there was absolutely nothing wrong with my transmitter or
- the way I was operating it.
-
- If a device that is not designed to pick up radio frequencies does in
- fact pick them up, the fault is in that device... *not* the transmitting
- device. If the device being interfered with *is* designed to pick up
- radio frequencies (i.e. a tv or radio), the fault is not so clear.
