I ordered a copy for my wife (N0TOB) who is still a nocode. She decided
she liked it so much that she bought 3 more copies, one went to the club
school... Her complaint with the normal code tapes is that you do not
learn the characters in alphabetic order, this tape does teach them that
way. She still has not upgraded yet but knows most of the numbers and
characters while only listening in the car on the 2+ miles to work.

Good! Several of us in San Diego are also writing letters, petitioning,
jamming, etc. to shut down closed repeaters in the amateur service. We should
probably get more organized.
I said it before, but the FCC is willing to consider a "close repeater ban".
There there are several commissioners (I know one personally) that are
sympathetic to our cause. They say the request (RFR) must come from the amateur
community or politically they can not act. I have not been active on lobbying
the ARRL... attacking the coordinating bodies might be a new angle on this...
PS. My wife is a communications lawyer... What school are you going to?

To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
I have created a new type of Index file for the oak.oakland.edu:/pub/hamradio
FTP area.
The new index file is named 0-Index2.txt, and is in the format of:
/directory_path/name_of_file, file description
which is great if you want to perform a grep of a particular program.
The result will be an instant directory path to retrieve the file from.
The other index file isn't going anywhere. It's format is still:
/directory_path:
names of files Brief description of file
The final index file, which is more confusing, but will continue to exist,
is the vanilla recursive subdirectory listing, ls-lR.

Jack,
Up here in Ozaukee Co., WI we use the "straight" call to
break into a QSO or to indicate that we are making a final
transmission. To differentiate the times when we feel that
10 minutes hav (or will have) passed since the last ID we use
the phrase "for ID". I am sorry if this offends you.
Don't you think - in the totality of Amateur Radio -
this is rather insignificant?

Subject: seeking new club advice
To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
i am seeking advice on starting a amateur radio club. last month a
group of us met and discussed forming a club here at work - so far, around 70
hams have shown an interest in participating.
at the first meeting, the floor was open for suggestions of activities -
education/upgrading functions, having guest speakers, field day participation,
and contesting were a few activities suggested. does anyone on the internet
have any other suggestions for club activities?? is there any "lessons
learned" advice anyone can give to us?? any information provided would be
greatly appreciated.
thanks,
ke4edy
p.s. we also have an opportunity to purchase our own 2 meter repeater
station. any advice on this??
