More freqs AND more responsibility? What a double edged sword! They don't even put restrictions like that on firearms!

Well, I will have my vx-5 operating on FRS, but I'm going to try to actually stick to the 2m calling freq, 146.520. If needbe, we could hop around bands after making an initial contact.
FRS is for weenies. ;)

QRZ had an interesting post a month or so back about a decent little program to work on your CW. It's really pretty slick.

Well, I think a small breakout session would be a good idea. I'm already planning on giving a "Practical reasons for getting your amateur radio license" talk at Rubi-Con in Detroit this year, if possible.

Ham classes at the con, now that sounds like a good investment of time!

Agreed... cost me $10, but it's still a bargain. Having one means hearing fewer questions about odd looking radio gear. Plus, it has the potential to be a great public service.

I can understand how FRS will be a bitch. Is there any info about what ham frequencies people will be on? I'll have my VX-5 with me. I think I read somewhere mentioning using an out of band frequency. I think it might have been the Deathrace 2k caravan.
I'm thinking we would want to be out of band anyway so we won't disrupt the local hams with our con chatter.

Ah, how well I remember the fifty watts of 'manboobs' and 'blueberry clitoris' that characterised Defcon 8, followed by three hours of Oingo Boingo on FRS... *sniff* such happy times...
If anyone starts that shit this year I'll kick their ass (that is, of course, if it isn't me. ;)
