"The Interceptor"  You weren't likely to outrun the 440/6 Pak in front of the 294 S axle.  With all that intake roar you couldn't hear it from the driver's seat, but it spun the wheels when it shifted into high at 80 mph.  Let's just say it could have run 'respectable' speed at Daytona in its time ...

"Beartrap".  No idea on callsign.

Well in Jan it was STILL $70.  And a real Pain to pay.

"PapaBear" was my handle and all the kids, now 40 yo where baby, momma bear and running dear, the runner of the family.  No memory of my callsign.  

 

 

Now on another point... New GMRS fee start date...  See below from FCC... I think it will happen end of Feb or weeks into March...  And if I'm right Tampa Bay will win SuperBowl..  But I do like Patrick Mahomes II.

Well it is official they accepted my late payment (application was in on time). I get to keep my call sign and I can turn the repeater back on.  70$. Maybe I better hurry and take my AE exam  before they raise that one up!
