O:)
no... i had plans to get my license waaaay back in the '70s but couldn't get morse down well enough... discovered (very) loud music, computers, and rocketry instead... i know that things have been relaxed since then but these days i (still) just listen to the bands when i decide to fire up the radio... at this time, i have to find it, though... not sure were it has gotten off to... it is a heathkit receiver that we built... but gotta find it first... otherwise only the stuff that streams on the 'net is available...

I don't know if I've asked you this before or not, but are you an amateur radio operator?

* Please don't gate this echo to USENET, a mailing list, another BBS
mail network, an online Fidonet mail archive, or anything else
without the moderator's express and written permission. This is
a Fidonet echo and needs to stay in Fidonet.
it's currently being gated to DOVE-Net heh

Thanks for letting me know. I'll contact Rob.

Rob is trying to address it. Looks like a Dove node has a config error and Rob has shut off their posting abilities until they confirm that
the issue is fixed. There has been a small discussion in the Dove HAM echo.
Hi Ed,
I changed my call to KS4TD in July 2020. I live in 4 land now and STD are
my initials (yes, really).
I haven't been on the ir since 2019 when lightning hit my shack.
The good thing is a friend is selling me a Kenwood TS-440S for $50. I have
a Ten-Tac antenna so I souold be ragchewing soon. Need to buy some more QSL cards.

Evidently it was a misconfigured Mystic system that was doing it. I wasn't aware that Mystic had QWK networking. Thanks to Rob to looking quickly into it.
If someone asked me if they could gate HAM to DOVE-Net properly, I'd most likely say yes. It's not that I'm against gating, as you know being my Micronet gate, but I just want to know about the gating.

Not familiar with the TS-440.
Wonder if TS-520S are sold for that low of a price now a days?
Don't need 11Meters.

i don't agree. the periodic rules posts mysteriously weren't gated
across. somebody knew what was up and pretended they didn't after the fact.
yeah i certainly wouldn't mind it either if i knew it was reliable. i'd just unsub the dovenet ham one because i see the posts near instant
with binkp+fidonet..
Hi Ed,
More info: https://www.rigpix.com/kenwood/ts440s.htm
This particular model has excellent audio. I can hear it clearly without my hearing aids.
I couldn't find one for sale.
CB is somewhat active around here, believe it or not.
Yes, no need to say "best regardses". XD

I was thinking the 440 was HF since the only Kenwood 2M rig I once
owned had 4 numbers after the TS, Me wrong , it looks like ur 440 is
for 2M. DUH!
My 440 is HF only from 10-160 meters. Not sure where you saw it was for 2 meters.
For 2 meters, I have a Yaesu FTM-3100 mobile rig. For 440 and GMRS, I have
a Motorola mobile rig.
