I use AES (www.aesham.com) and R&L Electronics, primarily.

Ask if you have questions before you pull the trigger on something....we can keep you from buying a DPMS or a Tacpoint, you know?



Just an example of what you can do: Tonight, I just talked to a net that reaches from Omaha, NE to south Alabama, and everyone on the net in between (East tennessee, Georgia, and Iowa) was able to communicate clearly with me. Before that, I went out and practiced setting up the field rig, and contacted my friends in northern and southern Indiana with no problems. And no dependence on external infrastructure.

Love it.

What region are you in? you dont have to give your address but this post would have greater impact if we knew where it originated.

1. Anyone tested lately to get their ham license?
Just wondering if there are any new hams here.

2. Anyone do sat comms?
Thinking on getting one of these with Christmas money-

if I can just get over the pre-buyer's remorse.
Would come in handy foxhunting/RDFing also which I've found I kind of like doing.
