A Proud Supporter of No Code International.  Flame Suit On

HamSexy!  It's ham-tacular!

Priorities


I'm going to take a short hiatus in purchasing new amateur radio equipment for a while. How long? Well, more than likely until 2008 or so.

Most folks that know me well know that in addition to my amateur radio hobby, I enjoy collecting, shooting, and carrying firearms. My firearms hobby took a major hit back in 1994 when the ridiculous "Clinton Crime Bill" was passed.

Now that the law has sunset, I am going to attempt to make up for lost time, before another gun grabbing administration gains power, and re-enacts another pointless law. So, although I'll still be operating on ham radio, and will still maintain and repair my existing equipment, any new purchases will have to wait. Unlike my firearms hobby, it's unlikely my amateur radio hobby will be legislated into oblivion on a mere whim.
