Amateur Radio licenses are UP! More people are recognizing that cell & land based phones will NOT be working during a disaster. When All Else Fails, Amateur Radio!
Hey there... thanks for the tip.. I wish one of the Biggies would open a shope close tome here on Long Island. I believe the closest IS the guy in Deleware.. I like the 7K because there is nothing else to buy.. maybe a AT.. thats it..
@gewglesux No problem at all. Money is tight and you have to get yourself the best deal possible. One more suggestion is HRO: Ham Radio Outlet--they're very competitive and their service is top notch. (I'm not affiliated with them, I've just been very happy with their support in getting my radios programmed, and sent in for warranty service.)
@gewglesux Hope they're better priced than the one in Orlando! The Orlando store jacks their prices up terribly! They're not very pleasant to speak with or get help from either.
Probably the reason why there's more hams in 2011 as opposed to 2000 is because the FCC dropped the morse code requirement.
