Official list of Amateur "HAM" Radio Operators and info
I was thinking we should have a list of HAM's.
List your call sign Class of license General location your radio equipment more than 1 if you want antenna If you are part of any clubs or Org's Example for me would be Vanity granted W6XXX General PM for callsign Bay Point, CA Yaesu VX-8R with Diamond SRH320A antenna yaesu 7900 for the car, neat little radio with scanning *wide receive* capabilities 2x Yaesu FT-7900 in both vehicles Diamond mag mount antenna Yaesu 857D HF all band rig For those who do not wish to post your call sign, you can list what radio gear you have etc, and if you want people to talk to just say PM for call sign. I am now a General as of 6/17/2011 I just placed an order for the new yaesu vx-8r and a diamond srh320a antenna since it has 22 reviews with a 4.9/5.0 score http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/4298 there are a few websites that you can take free practice tests on Links to practice exams http://www.eham.net/exams/ http://www.hamradiolicenseexam.com/study.jsp Find a place to take an exam http://www.arrl.org/find-an-amateur-...e-exam-session Just a few places and links to buy and look at Radio gear http://www.gigaparts.com http://hamradio.com/ http://www.universal-radio.com http://aesham.com/ www.eham.net/ http://www.hamradiolicenseexam.com http://www.hamcity.com Ham radio magazine https://www.arrl.org/join-arrl-renew-membership/ 39$ a year gets you a membership and 1 yr subscription to ARRL magazine. plus you also get a choice of a book for free. Usually a study guide for General, Extra , or other book on ham radio stuff like antennas etc.

KI6XXX General since last year
still only have a 2m HT, Yaesu VX-170. i can vouch for the Diamond 320A - i only use it on 2m, but it came with this radio, works great, and the person i got it from actually did the SWR testing themselves to decide what antenna to get. it is a bit long. i usually check in to the Bay Area's 9am Talk Net on N6NFI/R - if you hear me on there, i go by emilio, too. i helped out at the PAARA-shoot, if anyone here went to that... gave the reloading demonstration. - emilio Last edited by emilio; 07-13-2009 at 9:07 AM..

definitely a way to keep in touch outside of calguns just incase power goes out etc.
PS, welcome all NEW and OLD Ham operators, please share any tips to newbies like me and potential future hams.

I have my General license (missed Extra by 2 questions, I didn't plan on taking it so I didn't study for it), but don't have, nor have I ever used a radio.

My partner Elaine is WA6UBE.
She gets to be honourably retired, these days, after having been in charge of local public-safety commo capability for a major local agency for quite a few years. (and, oh, my, the stories she could......but must not, not even a little bit...... tell, after thirty years in public-safety commo.) We're the ones who have the M37 set up as a commo vehicle, with an ex-MLQ-24 shelter set up with an extensive array of modern commo gear. Have a look on our web-site www.tactical-link.com if you'd like. In theory, at least, should 'the big quake' or some similar disaster occur, which disables the Ma Bell land-lines, the mountain-top repeaters, microwave dishes, etc., we're part of the local 'reserve commo'. We're set up so that we can talk to the beat cop's hand-pack, or the fire captain's radio set on his rig, should he/she be unable to talk to dispatch, and pass the traffic to their dispatch, or to local, county, and state EOC. We're set up to talk to aircraft, and are linked with the Federal FEMA and SHARES programmes. We did interoperability training with the Army Reserve commo people, but.......for any would-be terrs out there........we don't carry any active military crypto, so don't bother trying....we do carry commercial PGP, but thats really pretty useless in any real emergence scenario. (fact is, if the 'big one' happens, some of our friends will be nice, and set up a perimeter around our rig.....so, no, we couldn't be taken over for the 'voz de atzlan','voz de la revolucion' or whatever.) How can you help? In this day of 'no code techs', you can pass a simple test and get a ham licence......then become acquainted with RACES, the civil emergency commo group, or, at least, 'San Jose Prepared' group, and help to co-ordinate local rescue. Now, ask yourself just how many people have set up the equivalent commo capacity, to be able to pass emergency traffic to state and Federal agencies should the 'big one' or other major disaster happen in the Santa Clara Valley.........aside from ham ops who can rig antennas and get out on ham freqs..... (my own guess is that, should there be a real disaster here, you'll be able to listen in on the ultimate 'Sino-American Fire Drill', or 'Charley Foxtrot'......but, yes, I'd really like to be mistaken about that) Now, aren't you really grateful that 'the big one' won''t happen in our lifetimes? (I could offer an opinion of the investors, developers, etc., who built high-rise buildings, which will have thousands upon thousands of occupants during business hours.......on alluvial fill ground, in a famous earthquake zone.......but, doubtless, no one would be interested in my opinion.....I just tend to avoid that area, myself) cheers Carla Last edited by Asphodel; 07-16-2009 at 10:10 AM..
