isnt it illegal to broadcast without your license? what are you doing talking on the ham if your not licensed?

and technically, if you are licensed your not suppose to be talking to anyone who isnt licensed.

[bossman380]

yes it is illegal....and he is licensed... hence kb3rrv (his call sign)

[MisterTwister55]

Every party here is licensed. 100% Legal.

Hey Mike, Welcome to Ham Radio! Simplex in my area is more active than any of the local repeaters. And it's amazing how well it works.

Hope you did on OK on your General test. Much success with the hobby. 73's, Mike WB8CXO

Simplex can be fun. It will really show how well your station can get out. Randy
