  1. I love old school! It always works and is more flexible than anything we have today.  I miss the old shortwave radios and I'm only 45.

  4. David Witkowski I have thought about it.  I still have a CB, but there isn't much talk on it anymore.

  5. Kevin McCarley Do you still remember the early days of HAM on the Internet back in 96 when they had a transponder and modem that WORKED at 2400 baud?

  6. Yep. My dad wrote one of the first packet radio computer programs called HamTerm ST. This was back in the early 90's
