- I think the ARRL is the only one still running an outbound service, and
- you have to be a member to use it. But it IS cheap; $1 for up to 10
- cards, or $2 per pound (about 150 cards).
-
- The ARRL also supports incoming bureaus for each call area. For your
- call (8th call area), the incoming bureau is:
-
- 8th Area QSL Bureau
- PO Box 182165
- Columbus, OH 43218-2165
-
-
- You can contact them about their policies regarding keeping envelopes
- on file to receive your cards.

- To: info-hams@ucsd.edu
-
- My Realistic Pro-2004 scanner has a sticky key. It looks like something
- has indented the number 6 key, causing it to stay pressed intermittantly.
- I've removed the screws that hold the PC board in place which contain the
- keys, but I'm still unable to remove the board. Does anyone know if this
- is glued to the membrane face, or if it's attached some other way? I'm
- thinking if I can get behind the membrane front, I can iron out the
- indentation of the keypad and fix the problem. The service manual has been
- of no help in this regard.
-
- Reply via this board or email, I'll read (and much appreciate) either!

-
- I was wondering if anyone might know where I could pick up a file
- containing a breakdown of RF bands by frequency and use for most, if not
- all of the radio spectrum. I've tried to find a good publication which
- would have this in it, but have yet to find a good one. I'd like to
- find raging from LF to UHF if possible.
-
- I thought this group would be a good one to as for this information and
- maybe someone could point me to a good ftp site.
-
- Thanks,

- Azden makes a 6m handheld, FM only. I think it puts out 10w, and is
- advertised in all the major ham magazines here in the US.

- Without sticking my nose into the good book, I think there should be no

- interfere with a coordinated operation. The big asterisk here is that the

-
- One of the funny things about SoCal is that SCRBA refuses to release the
- actual location of the repeaters. All you get is a long list of
- callsigns, frequencies (no PL's) and the boundries of SCRBA's influence.
- You don't know if a particular repeater is in Santa Barbara or just west
- of Yuma.

- I totally agree.

- I couldn't agree more. In fact, I'd even be happy with "any new
- coordinations must be open and remain open for a minimum of 12 months"
- until some kind of reaonsable balance is struck.
