Hello There
For those who like to read my bio.
I got the bug in 1976 .
My grandfater convinced step dad to put a 11m cb in his car and i was hooked at 10 years old !
That xmass he got me a little 9 volt powerd short wave reciver and i listend to that for hrs..
The following xmass i opend up a realistic 23 channel plastic radio i taped to my handlebars of by huffy bike.
i terrorized the local adults but they did talk to me ..
I operated 11m cb through my teens and aldult my last radio was a cobra xlr 139 channeld and peaked 20 watts lol.
lthe last time i turned that radio on before i sold it the only guy i tried to talk to was just preaching bible and wouldnt stop to say even to say hello..that was it for me ...
Later i started this job and a co worker had gotten another guy to get his tech ticket and talked me onto getting mine..
Today im very much into ham radio and will be as long as i can ...
