    Ham Radio Programming

    Spent some time reading my manual and looking things up on the web with regards to the memory thing and my FT7800R. Glad I bought it as my research has found that not all radios have as much memory nor such flexibility in programming. Also made me confident I bought the right software for...

    Radio usage, flexiblity, organization, reference stuff, etc.

    All great stuff as well and many thanks from a newbie and possible silently from others as well. As for GMRS/FRS there are no licensing requirements in Kanukistan. And, yes a license is required in the USA for GMRS (CH 1-7 and 15-22) Now for the hard part; getting websites listing repeaters...

    Radio usage, flexiblity, organization, reference stuff, etc.

    Common frequencies/repeaters used by Expo members? If this exists, I get the feeling more people would like to know them to get in touch with like minded members on their travels. Hence thought I would begin here. Please comment on the differences and why in each category. CBs: in my travels...

    Radio usage, flexiblity, organization, reference stuff, etc.

    I have read a great deal of the 15 pages or so on this portion of the Expo regarding Ham, CB, GMRS/FRS radios, etc. It seems a lot of us are requesting similar info in different ways but ultimately it is what types of communication devices people are using, for what purposes, in what areas and...

    Ham Radio Programming

    Trying to get to know my Ham radio better. Just got the software (RT Systems Inc as it was made for my unit) to program my Yaesu FT-7800R rather than doing it manually and thought I would check with other radio owners (same unit or others): how you make use of the various memories this unit...

    Cobb cooker

    I find the main advantages of the COBB over others is that you do not have to carry combustible fuel in your vehicle. Finding the containers of fuel can be hard after a while, they always seem to stop selling them and most are not refillable on your own if at all. It also has the advantage of...

    Yaesu FT7800R Mods and Programming Software

    Thanks Dave, I didn't mean to start a fight and you are quite right to all, it is illegal! Having said that now, no point in posting it again. That wasn't my point. In a life and death situation it may mean the differrence and that is the main reason I got the ham. I appreciate everyone posting...

    Yaesu FT7800R Mods and Programming Software

    As a new owner of this unit, I am still trying to figure out all its features and what to use for what. The manuals fine to explain how it works but not when one should use it and for what. Anyone an expert on this, would really appreciate some help. Heard you can do some mods to this unit to...
