ETA: glad you liked them. I am currently cutting all of the names for the Senior PGA Tour, the stickers are nothing less than professional quality. I would like to stick to my deadline, once I set up the computer to do the callsigns I don't want to have to do it again, but if its past the 3rd IM me anyway, I may have not cut them yet and can still add you to the list, if I have cut them, maybe if you ask really nicely, or if you are in a state I need for WAS.....  |

I'm cutting everything right now, everyone is getting black, those who requested white or green are also getting it, I am going to throw in a few white ones for everyone if they didn't request it, just not as much as those who did because of a short supply of white vinyl. ok we're done! thats it! who I have: IPR FKF MCR JRK CDN MSS DLH 5P ESB OVT DQX It is going to take me some time to weed all of these, put on transfer tape, and cut them all into individual stickers, it can be very tedious so please be patient. some people will get more than others, don't compare, don't complain. this is because sometimes the plotter will F'up a letter, rendering the whole sticker useless, I will still keep the letters and send them to you just in case you rip one or something so you can still salvage the decal. otherwise, thanks for the interest, and if you missed out, sorry. Ill be back next year. ETA: I cut 484 individual call sign stickers for arfcom some friends and a few myself.  |

I am getting out of ham radio (for a wile anyhow). I want to give my 3 band dipole (80-40-20) to a newer General class operator who might not have an antenna. This antenna has worked well for me for what I know about antennas. I have worked Canada down to Chile and even a little farther south with digital modes. I have chatted all over the US. It will be about a week or so before I get it taken down so bear with me on the timeline. What you see is what you get. Will have other gear up for sale next week VRMN  |

I have a standard DIN to RJ-45 cable for a signalink USB interface. Came with my Signalink, and I don't need/use it. taken by FrankSymptoms
Also, have a 10 ft CAT USB cable for Yaesu radios. worked great for me for a year... then started timing out and having issues. Discussed with vendor, and apparently this chipset does not work winth Win7 x64. So...if you run sometihng other than Win7 x64, in theory it should work for you. Not sure what broke it for me... I'm guessing SP1, but I could be wrong. The new chipset cable should be in shortly, so as soon as I receive that, I can send this one out. Taken by mylt1 |

I.e. control your radio from a computer hia ham radio deluxe....program radio channels via 3rd party program...etc. Basically provides a com port to your radio. Similar to the Yaesu CT-62. I received the new one in the mail yesterday, so the old one is available. It's about a $30 cable... my loss is your gain.

If you get rid of it you must pass it on to a new ham.I'll take it if the offer still stands. I have nothing for CW, or anything HF for that matter. I would just like to call myself out- I have been derelict in my duties of sending off the package. The radio is in a box and ready to go, but it got packed up with all of my other stuff when I escaped CA to move to VA. When I get access to my stuff again I promise it will go in the mail. Sorry for the delay. |

I could use the Tech and General study guides, or perhaps a PDF link to something online.
I'm going thru the ones in the tacked thread right now and they are excellent for answering the bank of questions. I'd like to go deeper into the 'why' of things. Do the AARL guides do that? |

The ARRL Handbook for Radio Amateurs is basically the "radio bible". Everyone interested in radios should own one. They are printed every year, but all of the info is the same in regards to the fundamentals. They change it up every so often to keep up with current trends/modes so even old ones are still good for the fundamentals. The really old ones from the 40's and 50's are fun to look at and make you wonder how they didn't electrocute themselves back then. |
