  1. You got that right. It's very difficult to become a multimillionaire on a salary of 150K in 2 years...gotta make it a career!
  2. Term Limits would help to deter some of that behavior.
  3. There's been a lot of "kicking the can down the road" over the past few decades and letting the next administration worry about it because the focus is usually on reelection and mid-terms rather than making the US self-reliant. And then the term "American Exceptionalism" became bad...SMH
  4. Unfortunately, some people just wake up in a foul mood - every day. And they feel it's their duty to spread their misery to as many people as they can (misery loves company). What better way to spread their misery to a large audience very quickly, than on an internet forum? Sad
  5. Is there a way to factory reset those and then reload your channels? Seems silly, but I've had similar things happen and a factory reset is what needed to happen in order to bring the radio back to life.
  6. When I was active on HF, I would take the opportunity to explore the WARC bands like 17m. No contesting allowed there, so it's a nice escape!
  7. Dude - I never said a word about enforcement actions, or anything like that. I said the fact that the net control station mentioned shutting down a "node", that's your sign that it is a linked system. I didn't argue the legalities of such a system. Sheesh
  8. Yeah, the mention of a "node" is pretty much a dead giveaway...
  9. Very true - not to mention if there are enhanced band conditions which can greatly increase coverage, albeit temporarily.
  10. 2017 JK Owner here - Mine looks like it is ready to go offroad, but in reality, it's a "Mall Crawler" - No superior attitude here - just a friendly "Jeep wave"! I have installed a Uniden Pro510XL with a FireStick 2 and have a couple GMRS Handhelds that I throw in when I'm out and about.
  11. SO, I guess I better stop telling my wife "I'm on the way now - traffic was bad".
  12. Life Goal #238: Have "minions" to do my bidding...
  13. I understand what you're saying. Technically this bridge isn't linking repeaters (so I do stand corrected), however, the moment the GMRS voice communication goes out across the bridge which would be "any other network", to reach the POC radio, it is against the rules as they stand today. Or am I missing something?
  14. A community is best served by a reliable repeater that covers the community - hearing conversations from across the country on a linked system does not benefit the local community who are wanting/needing to communicate with folks in their local area. Let Ham Radio be Ham Radio, and let GMRS be GMRS.
  15. Laugh if you want. I'll sit this one out and watch from the sidelines...should be interesting. Best of luck
