I'm really that way also, just threw LZ out there as a joke. I can't think of a genre of music that doesn't have something I don't like in it.
Mine is the a/c in the shack, seems to warble a nice mark/space after those RTTY Contests go silent.
Personally, I've always liked Led Zeppelin as my favorite band. 20 m CW and Phone were my go to's for FD this year. Very limited Op time as usual due to annual Family do's that weekend. But managed contacts on the bands from 40-6m working a 1E station
When the first brick sized Cellphones came out, a buddy got one for work. He'd call us when he was down at the lake and ask us to call back in 5 minutes. He would walk by the sunbathing girls on the beach and take that call trying to impress them.
Didn't really work...
Absolutely - Here in St Paul, we hear sirens, we rush outside to look for them!. But the guys I know are researchers not tour guides, so they like to keep other ears from getting their info and clogging up their spots!
Others have posted VG info already, won't add to that. I do know a couple "professional" storm chasers, they both have LMR licenses for their pursuits. Mostly so they can encrypt their radio traffic, so as to not have other chasers, especially those who take groups out to show off storms, their info.
An oldie but a goodie. That one's been hammered to death by the Hams, both Happy and Sad over the last couple of years. Yeah, with EchoLink or DMR/C4FM, etc., et al, I can talk thousands of miles on my handheld. But I prefer the old school nothing between me and the other guy than the ether...
E-1 pay in 74 was 397 per. ETS'd as an SP4 at the 505 per month. For those that care, my MOS was 98G2LAEK3/05H2LAEK3. But was also put on Temp as a 95B when I was guarding the SCIF as there weren't enough MP's with clearances to do the gig.
ARRL has log books. I have a mini one for the occasional portable no cell service ops. Never have I ever logged a GMRS or CBRS contact, but the fields in a log book can be modified to suit any radio service I would think.
No bueno there my friend. I am fortunate in that I am not affected by PO, PI or Stinging Nettles. My wife didn't believe me about the PI, until I picked up a bunch from a plant in our back yard, and suffered nothing. The hill behind our garage is covered in the stuff. She, OTOH, is very much affected by them all. Makes hiking our river land an adventure in avoidance for her where I just plow on thru the itchweed...
