The dealer looked at my trade-in w/all the antennas (HF, VHF) and told
me I wan't planning to to the same on the new car. I said I sure was!
He informed me that the warranty would be voided. He went as far as wanting
to put in writing on the sales contract if I installed the gear it would
void all electrical system warranties! He couldn't show me the GM policy
on demand! I told him the hell w/your car and my wife and I left!
What an attitude! I'll blame it on the butt-head business mentality
in this country these days...

I noticed that Joe Lo Truglio of MTV's "The State" was wearing a Yaesu baseball
jersey at the close of one of the 1993 episodes that was rerun the other night.
Anyone know if there is a story behind that?

(There is a "Joseph P. Truglio" in the online callbook, but there's no
possibility of match on the birth year.)

I wonder if the rig comes with both wave encode and decode, or whether the
encoder is an installable option?  ;-)

The FT530 can cover airccraft on am all of 130-170 and 400-450 more or less
plus all of the cellular (rcv only) and the mod is just opening a pad. I
think pad 14 but get the correct information. I have done it to mine and it
is a bear to get at the small spot. I don't think I would try it again.
OTOH it costs a bundle at a hamfest to have it done.

it was part of "novice enhancement" from 1987...basically should have been

So did you straighten this guy out or did you just let him go on in ignorance?
Not very "ham like" if you didn't enlighten him.

Expecting everyone to be another Einstein, i guess.

I wouldn't expect you to know how to set up an AS-90 scorer in league mode to
display pin difference and marks instead of accumulated total pins if you've
never done it before either....oh, yeah, I want the overheads on 10 frame and
the consoles on 4 frame displays while you're at it...

a few weeks ago some grads of an unnamed organization's radio class were going
on about how CTCSS prevents an unencoded receiver from working....but i'm not
surprised since a lot of the people involved with that effort don't understand
something like CTCSS in the first place.  I take a couple of minutes and now
there are 2 more than know that CTCSS is their friend....

I've still got the 30-odd-year-old lightbulb (still works) that I used for
tuning up the old cw transmitter (Heathkit DX-40  :-)  ).  It's got a piece
of wire about an inch long, folded so it fills the center hole of an SO-239
socket, soldered to the center contact, and another piece a couple of
inches long, soldered to the threads, that slipped under one of the
mounting screws of the socket.  That's pretty short, even for loading an
elephant.  Of course, I never worked anybody on it.

You did, it's just vague.  I meant the Extra exam had yet more theory
questions - i.e., another 40 - but wasn't really much harder than the
Advanced exam.  Sorry about that.

Incidentally, the Canadian Basic has 75 theory/operating questions and
25 rules questions, for a total of 100.  Their Advanced exam has 50
theory questions.  In contrast, our no-code tech has only 55
questions, just over one third the number on the exam required for the
equivalent Canadian license (Advanced qualificatio w/o code), and at a
much lower level.  By the time you take the US Advanced, you've
answered 130 questions.  Maybe the "full" no-code license should be
no-code Advanced.  (Their 12 wpm code test - 3 minutes, >5 errors
fails - is harder than our 13 wpm, 5 minute, 1 minute perfect OR 7
questions and you pass version, as well.)

It has 50 questions, while the fifth test only has 40.

Basically, not be an agent of a foreign government, have a US mailling
address, and pass the exams.

In case you don't know, the current license structure in the US,
the exams need for each, and a rough idea of priviledges is as
follows:

NOVICE        Novice Theory & 5 wpm code    Limited HF priviledges
TECHNICIAN    Novice and Technician Theory    All VHF+ priviledges
TECH. PLUS    Novice and Technician Theory    Tech and Novice priv.
          & 5 wpm code
GENERAL        Novice, Tech, and General    Tech priviledges plus
          Theory & 13 wpm code          most HF priviledges
ADVANCED    Even more theory & 13 wpm    General plus more HF
EXTRA        More Theory (!) & 20 wpm    All priviledges

This should give you a rough idea.

For the past several weeks the keps for KO25 have not been producing
accurate AOS, TCA, and LOS times.  It is my belief that a more
accurate set of keps for KO25 is the object NASA lists as Catalog
Number 22828.  W5IU, K5EKH, KG5OA, and myself have confirmed this by
monitoring numerous Cat No. 22828 passes.  Below is the current keps
for the object with Cat. # 22828.  Try these out in your tracking
program and see if they do a better job for KO25.  Please leave a
message on KO23 or KO25 to let me know how this set works.

Correct, and the FT-530 will cover 430-450MHz.  (I believe this is more than
most other dual-bands.)

Just to repeat what has been posted here before, THE FCC IS NOW ISSUING
TECHNICIAN PLUS LICENSES.  This means, if you learn the code, you will
need to send in a form 610 and get a new license.  (Maybe need isn't
quite right, but it is SOP now, so it should be done.)

Not that this should change anything.  The team I've worked with before
routinely has someone who has an application pending.  They generally
wait until the license comes and then send in the paperwork.  (They,
of course, discuss this with the applicant so they know what is
going on.)
