Found a nice web page relating to ham radio, emphasis on APRS. http://www.coca.net/people/kd4rdb/aprs.htm Ron
~terry #13
APRS = ? This is where you use gps devices interfaced to computers to send your position out over packet radio. Very cool new technology. And Ron is leading the way in this area.

Welcome Jill, glad you're joining us. And it was cool to see your emerging website. We've just moved to what I hope to be faster bandwidth. What special areas of radio and ham radio interest you the most?
~KC5OJK #19
Bare with me, I'm kinda tired and was thinking of getting some shut eye as my dad would say. I am mainly interested in public service (such as ARES), contesting, and the latest find (as of tonight...err last night. man it's already 2am.) fox hunting. Gotta get some equipment for that last one though. I think it's time to buy some parts and expeirence the joy of building a quad. I also gotta locate an attenuater. (spelling?) My spelling usually lacks a little. As you could tell from my web site. :) One of my professors the other day said something really cool about spelling. (After we laughed at his speling of the word pool. He said, "You know the relationship between spelling and creativity? They have the inverse realationship." After he came up with that, I don't mind spelling bad all the time. :)

Jill, if you'd like a shell account on the Spring, you're welcome to one. The UNIX editors there have spell checkers, for example, in 'pico' you can type control-t or ^T and it displays every misspelled word in alphabetical order and let's you automatically replace it. I'm a good speller but sometimes I try to type too fast. We have vi and joe also and I believe they have spell checkers. We don't have this on our web interface yet. Perhaps someday. Looks like we need to start a building antennas topic, what do you think Jill?
~KC5OJK #21
Spell checkers are wonderful things. I am not very familiar with UNIX. I basically know how to get around and use vi to edit source code and that's it. I am afraid that's about the extent of my knowledge of unix. So, if I did get a shell account from the spring, I'm afraid I'd need lots of help. About the topic addition: Sure, why not. How do I do it? Or, do you?
~terry #22
You can do it from the 'add topic' button at the top of the screen on the web and in the shell you do it with 'e'. We try and keep topics of as broad general interest as possible. The radio conference is about radio in general including ham radio, broadcast radio, etc.
~KD5CMV #23
Hi folks: My call sign is KD5CMV and my QTH is Houston, TX. Operate an HT202 2M radio. Hope to upgrade to General as soon as I can get to 13wpm CW. I was emailed your site location. My email is kd5zro@juno.com. 73's to all.
~KD5CMV #24
Hi again from KD5CMV. I was a little nervous when I posted my first message and I goofed on my email address. It's kd5cmv@juno.com. Thanks.

Howdy All Greetings from frozen Czech-cago-land! Although a native Austinite, Im hanging out in the frozen north. Why? Good Question! I split my radio interest between vintage toob gear (keeps the shack warm...), old spy radios, microwave, and satellite. When I visit the wonderful city of Austin, I can be found on the 442.150 machine. 73 de AA9IL Mike -aka- Cosmo Riff Raff #39
~terry #30
Glad you're checking in! We were just discussing riff raff yesterday on 442.15, speculating about what happened to Paul.
