General discussion (QSO) / Uh Oh Another New Guy
« Last post by K3DAV on July 10, 2013, 09:00:07 PM »Hi everyone. I'm the new meat on the forum. I got a kind invitation from our fearless leader, KE7TRP, so here I am.
I am a pretty laid back kind of guy, but I love radio from the mic to the tip of the antennas since I was a kid with my first set of walkie walkies. I got them for my 10th birthday and palyed with them all day with my buddy. Of course I killed the 9Volt battery and had to change it. When I pulled the back cover off, I saw all of those little parts with different shapes and colors. I was hypnotized. Right then I knew I had to learn what those parts were and what they did. I have been a radio freak ever since.
I am from Middletown PA right near 3 Mile Island. I have heard every joke in the book about that, so please don't start. I was born in CT 58 long years ago, and I moved to PA back in 1979, just as TMI was about to melt down. (Welcome to PA, ignore the radiation).
