For the amateur radio world, even noise sometimes is good.

Re: [AMRadio] WABOOF - Good News on HAM RADIO

2009-01-05 Thread Ron.K3PID
WABOOF WHAT A BUNCH OF OLD FARTS!! ( I can say that because I am old too! )

Here a guy is trying to convey a little good news and all you guys can do is 
make disparaging remarks!!  Talk about a glass half empty club!  Hell, a 1.2% 
increase is at least 1000% bigger than the stupid senatorial race in MN and now 
they're arguing about less than 10 parts per million ballots!!!

A new ham is a new ham, it doesn't matter what the initial motivation was, if 
they have a license it's our job as Elmer's to mold them into amateur radio 
operators! Don't sit around and whine!!! Get up and do something to help them 
appreciate and enjoy the hobby.

  Good news folks.. The Ham Radio actually grew in 2008. I would love to 

  Know the breakdown of techs, Generals, Extra.. 

   

   

   

  At our management meeting this morning I learned that (matching end of year 
figures) 

  There was approximately a 1.2% growth in hams in the USA

  And there are 28,066 new US hams in 2008.

   

  To those people and groups who were active in promotions, classes, exams and 
teaching - ya dun gud!

Re: [AMRadio] Good News on HAM RADIO

2009-01-05 Thread J.D. MacAulay, WQ8U
Looks like the largest increase was in Technician class.  I wonder how many of 
those are the result of the Red Cross, TSA and big emergency organizations 
helping their folks get a license so ham frequencies will be available to them 
if needed.  To those folks ham radio is just another walkie-talkie, not a hobby.

Hi Jerry,

I have the B&W amplifier and I believe it uses the 850. I count 12 turns on 
the coil meaning the smaller diameter coil.

Hope this helps.
