Smiley Slim Duck also fits fine.

I’ll bet you were wearing a mask while you typed that. [emoji40][emoji6] I can’t believe how sensitive some people are.

Because it doesn’t make sense. It looks like two separate thoughts, with the only commonality being the 1500’ mountain. Maybe it makes sense to you, but you failed to explain what you are asking in a way that the rest of us can understand. Frankly, it looked like a drunk person late night posting. If you can explain what you’re saying maybe we can help. (1) “So to fellows we will call them #1 and #2 are in a flat desert and 10 miles apart. Both can TX and RX each other. #1 removed his antenna, he thinks he is TX but #2 can't hear anything. #2 tries to TX #1, but #1 does not hear anything. Now we add a 1500 ft tall mountain between them and #1 and #2 can't hear each other. RIGHT” (2) “So I wear hearing aids. The last pair cost me $5,000. plus I had to pay a $500 maintenance fee. They claimed they were making adjustments to my hearing aid, But there was a 1500 ft tall mountain between us. So I stopped paying the Maintenance fee, and darn the hearing aids stopped working. What do you guys think.”

It seems there are countless people who lack any self awareness. Post a question to random strangers on an Internet forum, then criticize their answers. Similar to the guy on the thread about “linked repeaters” who seems to think his arrogant replies are winning the day. Reminds me of…..

Some people like them. Those people also look like this.

I think car monkey hairspray, but big toe likes rocky road. Hair gel makes fun times but trees are there. Your sister wash with hose but I still like pie. [emoji482]

^ Quoted for posterity. The reply looks like it came from an 12 year old in 1975. Ignore button time.

Randy has a dry sense of humor. Many people enjoy that. You, not so much.

Nope, he’s still here because he needs to keep trying to be superior. Sort of like those guys who drive the really jacked up pickup trucks. [emoji6]

While true, it doesn’t eliminate his attention seeking behavior. The guy should just put on the dress and change his name to Karen.

“….right over your head….” From the most arrogant guy on this forum.

When I read his posts I picture…..

We have a local guy who makes some J-pole antenna that seem to work really really well in our PNW terrain.

Edit: Never mind. It wasn’t about linked repeaters so it wouldn’t be appropriate. [emoji849]

Now you’re wondering who that guy is with the knee you’ve been sitting on…..

This is why it’s important to do research before purchase. Many Midland radios are sold as bundles, including everything needed to get up and running. That said, I don’t believe Midland sells a “mobile repeater” but they have many mobile radios. While capable of being used “off label” for GMRS, the Icom isn’t a GMRS radio and isn’t really targeted for the casual GMRS user. Icom radios are intended for the HAM and those folks generally know all the needed pieces of the puzzle.

Please no more, we’ve had enough of the linked repeater drama.

…and they get to wear the eye patch and bandana, which makes them scary looking.

Rumor has it he likes your feet. Not judging.

Edit: this helps explain why California is so messed up. Some people. [emoji849]

On a mountain road and considering the immaturity of the other driver, you’re lucky it didn’t go a different direction. Glad you are all ok, the truck can be fixed.

But he sounds like big fun to hang out with! [emoji1787]
