HeinousAnos Posted June 19 Report Share Posted June 19 Greetings everyone! From Missouri here and just got my license after soaking up hours of YouTube and Reddit content. I have a couple hand helds for the wife and I and intend to expand over time with a car unit and a station at home. I notice there’s no repeaters around my area which is typical it looks like.

Delmustator Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 Howdy Folks! The family does a lot of mountain off-roading in SXSs and FRS just doesn't cut it anymore. So we have moved to GMRS for greater range and repeater use. I've been in Comms/IT for 30+ years. I was a green suit Tropo/SkeeterLOS microwave radio repair guy for Uncle Sam for 6 years back in the day. But it's been a minute so I'm back into learning mode with GMRS. Also, as a private pilot, I'm on the air bands while flying PIC. Note: If anyone needs help with a Home Internet/IT issue? Let me know. IT is my daily gig. Perhaps I can help. I'm also an avid VR pilot in DCS (its way cheaper than flying the real thing). I have a full motionless VR simpit setup. I can answer questions and help with that as well. V/R Del (WSDN287) Now.. How do I land this thing? WRUU653, SteveShannon and WSDN828 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickMz Posted July 4 Report Share Posted July 4 Thanks for the add. I come to the whole “radiosphere” relatively late in the game as I have been retired for 2 decades but, I like the idea of learning something new so, here I am. Looking forward to learning from the corporate knowledge and making some new friends in the process. Some of the radioheads in my area (Pensacola-Navarre-Fort Walton Beach, FL) may hear a radio check soon!

WSCW485 Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 Just joined up to the forums but have had the license for short while. Some might know me under my ham call of KE4ZNR out of North Carolina but good to be licensed under GMRS as well! Strong Signals to all!

AZCOP Posted July 11 Report Share Posted July 11 GMRS n00b. Haven't used a call sign since 1976, so this is going to take some getting used to. But, I'll learn: That's why I'm here.
