Rick, Welcome to ham radio! I also checked the FCC database and didn't find your name (no Sparber in all of Arizona). When you do get your call sign, there are two nets I recommend for new hams.

I just had the same problem using Chirp and an FTDI cable. It reads the radio well, but would not write. I finally gave up and purchased the FTB60 software (downloadable) from Bob

Rick, This will be a very long few days. I let my license expire and had to retest from scratch. I would check the website several times a day just to be sure I had not missed

Rick, Listening is good. It doesn’t take long to understand the flow of the QSOs. I also remember other HAMS being very patient and welcoming with me as I got started. The other thing I

Here in the mountains it's not unusual when talking to someone who?is mobile to have a long pause in a conversation. We just wait for the answer because we assume they are dealing with traffic or

Bob, Good catch. It has been wrong for many years and you are the first to see it. I just corrected the error. All of us are smarter than any one of

I might be wrong, but having canvassed others in the past, I believe the word you were looking for on your home page is 'canvas.' I've learned over the years that while I strive for purfection,

Probably just a bad battery. Sometimes you just get a defective piece of merchandise.

The FT-530 was probably the best HT that Yaesu ever made. Probably even better than the FT-51R.

Great Stories!!!! Yep, my first time took something like that time period, KA4FXR was my "interim" call sign, Novice.? I did not upgrade in a timely fashion, so I lost the license, marriage, kids,

I was very impressed with the fact that this was the only typo I found in the entire book. Much of my time is spent writing articles and I welcome people that find my typos. I quickly correct the
