  1. Happy Father's  Day 

  2. Thanks makes sense
  3. Go to hamstudy.com also ham radio prep.com they are what i used. I don't like videos so I just scrolled down and read everything. Then do quiz on each section after you think you know it a little, go to the end, and take quiz. Continue to take quiz untill you get 85% most times. It remembers what you had wrong and brings it up again, and it keeps track of your scores. The on line test is exactly what you have been taking, 35 questions. You can miss 8? It is very relaxed. There are not many math problems maybe 3. Get a notebook and write down the ones you have problems with. Write down definitions of APRS WMR, SwR psk, etc. Also the pie chart they changed P power. To E 8n the chart, don't know why. As to the pie chart, write down under each other the description such as P=POWER WATTS =AMPS DC E=voltage volts I= intensity current amps Good luck. Double check all I have written to make sure I did not make a mistake.
  4. I am trying too. To answer all of the lazy computer programmers, when you are in the middle of nowhere with no power or after a weather event power out for days, you will wish you knew how.
  5. Hello, have you had any luck programing your radio?
  6. If you join local GMRS club the repeaters will not charge you, I think. Look on this site to join. $25 a year with credit card. It helps support the net of repeaters. We would be nowhere without them. They spend a lot of money on their equipment and maintenance. Just look up on gmrs networks your area. Have fun.
  7. Iy you will find that it does not transmit, join the club have 4 different radios and none of them transmit just recieve. This one is supposed to but just can't get it to yet. Repeater is not standard freqs so I am trying to figure that out. Once you get it figured out you will like it. Get a notebook and write down all the abbreviations in the radio until you know them. Happy hunting.
  8. I amstill trying g to figure it out, but I have found a lot of videos on u-tube. Also type in how to mannually program UV-5G+ in the search box on goggle.
  9. Why does it not let me complete my registration unless I put a ham call sign in? This is a Gmrs site. I am studying for tech.
