I'm going to remember that one

It wouldn’t be user replaceable. It’s probably a surface mounted LED next to the edge of the LCD. And it might not have failed anyway. If possible return it for warranty service.

Other than the one negative person whom we all know which as @SteveShannon mentioned is not because of who they are but rather the stuff they say I don’t see down voting based on who someone is. Could it happen? Sure but someone would just up vote them back. It’s just a means to elevate the best technical answer. I do prefer reading things in chronological order though as it’s easier for context and it would be nice if you could make that a default setting.

OK, OK, SUPERSTAR

Probably not.. is it still under warranty?

I met her in in 1971 and she gave me a dehydrated lizard.

Does anyone know if I can order a new backlight for this product? The radio works fine but I can only see the display if I shine a flashlight on it.

Hell yes, you will defiantly get some attention.. Think i would rather spend my money a few radios thuough ... I actualy met the caretaker lady that lived in that house at Burro Schimit back in 1982....She had 357's scattered througout her shack house and had one dangling off a rope by her living room easy chair.. she was pretty fiesty

The only person well enough known to be upvoted or downvoted just because of “who they are” is Randy, and for the most part I don’t think many (if any) people have downvoted him because of that. SoCalGMRS gets downvoted because of how he treats others, not because of who he is. If he stopped treating others that way the downvotes would quickly cease. It’s that simple.
-
I won't argue that point. But when someone is always negative and/or hateful with every single reply then they are going to get down voted.

For the last 8 years we have lead 1 or 2 groups per year (20-40 Jeeps each group), up Goler Gulch, through Mormon Flat, up to Schmit Tunnel, over to Holland Camp, the Cleanser Mines, then out Last Chance Canyon. For this year's event I am thinking about getting an Air Raid Siren..

WRKN700 started following Hello To All New Members
-
To a lot of you I have been absent. Yet I have created a channel on discord for gmrs operators and a few of my cb radio friends. All are welcome to join. Spring and Summer takes up a lot of my time. So it has been a little hard to get on here. But I see all who have joined. I have been busy setting up my cb and gmrs radio shop and or shack. Also I have been working on radios from time to time. Other than that I have been talking on gmrs. Since I still don't have my cb antenna up in the air yet. I am running a 3 element beam for gmrs and a 8 element beam for gmrs. Which they work quite well for my mobile base radio and my gmrs hand helds. You all are more than welcome to create topics on here. https://discord.gg/d43wTMetUk

That must have been during the Timothy Leary days.

And certainly not in social media, the bastion of genteel behavior, patience, and selflessness.

I'm still learning Meshtastic myself, but I don't believe the packets are large enough to carry voice traffic in any usable form (but don't quote me on that). If you wanted to fire off quick messages during gaps in repeater coverage you could use canned messages.

WSHH887 started following abandoned radio tower
-
Well not exactly a haunted radio tower (although there is an early 1900's radio antenna on top of it), but the old Pacific Theaters building on Hollywood Blvd. is definitely haunted on the roof. Story is someone jumped off the buildings roof to commit suicide. I got the contract to take care of the cooling and heating systems located on the roof. Stuff happened. Things moved without obvious external effect. Sounds (including a scream) would burst forth without cause. Then there was the just freaky way you felt up there. Maybe if there are abandoned radio tower around, they are abandoned for good reason.

The Pinnacles is pretty cool.. Lots of really cool areas around here.. I'm sure you've checked out Burro Schmit Tunnel.
-
On the internet? Surely, you jest. No one would ever do that...
- Yesterday
-
You are correct sir.. We try to get up to Garlock/Last Chance Canyon 1 or 2 times a year but we've only been in that area you specified once, 7 or 8 years ago, after checking out The Pinnacles.
-
Or hoarded by Crown Castle or another monopoly.
-
Near Ridgecrest, about 3 miles from Hwy 395. 35°33'25.52"N 117°42'14.92"W. I think you hang out further south by Garlock and Randsburg.
-
Isn't it chaos already when people's posts are being downvoted just because of who they are? IMO, that violates the rules anyway.
-
Only in your mind. I was commenting on the setting being available in the software. It's there, that's it. I will test it when I feel confident again in Chirp not messing the radio up. You still don't understand that this is different than fully open. Fully opening makes it a non-compliant radio. Just putting in other GMRS frequencies at the appropriate power level does not. But you can't seem to grasp the difference so I'm done with this.

You spelled SUPERStar wrong..
