  1. Topographical maps for your area are Very useful for this !
  2. We're just too Old Steve lol!
  3. OHhhhhhh YES THEY DO !! QSL was around WAAAY before Gmrs was lol !!
  4. I'm sorry you're experiencing the grief that you are, in your area. I Wish I could share some of the diversity of the folks here. Most of our Hams are discussing future antenna projects, current projects, ways to help the younger crowd get started with their stations, and even our local Gmrs guys are discussing antennas, tech projects and ways to improve their hobby ! A growing number of our hams are becoming licensed for Gmrs, and vice versa, with our Gmrs crowd seeking out classes for their Tech and General licenses. Most behave and conduct themselves as adults, and try to help fellow operators.
  5. I'm all over the place lol! Local Gmrs repeaters, Simplex and Repaters on Ham radio, and on Murs as well, And on Brandmeister 3100 and 93 on Dmr.
  6. I think the KG-935G plus was claimed to be IP 66 or 67, and I'm not sure what the IP ratings were for the 805 & 905 models.
  7. Hugs for Days !!
  8. Happy Friday the 13th !!
  9. Does Anyone Remember the tricks that were used by Federal or Tactical law enforcement vehicles in the late 60's or Early 70's ?? You wouldn't recognize their cars at all ... Unless you got Right behind them ! The Antennas were Quarterwave antennas, usually Vhf and mounted INSIDE on the rear package shelf of the Rear window ! Under the carpet on that shelf was STEEL and made a Great ground plane !
  10. DO I ?? Yesssireee Randy, N9ZAS and WSCL633 !
  11. I use the 2X4 with no ground plane and it's Consistently 1.2 -1.4.1 on 2m/ Murs/70cm/ and Gmrs and even covers 222mhz. @1.5.1 swr although it's not really intended for that band. The previous antennas are no ground plane, but seem to perform better with one.
  12. The Comet SBB-5 are Excellent for mobile and even base use, and are ground independent. Also the Diamond SG-7900 as well with much more gain, and ground independent, but requires a permanent mount, or a 5" Magnet.
  13. Continuous Wave, but I'm sure you knew that lol!
  14. That is Cool !! Where did you come across that little gem ?
