    @JakeisbadatThis I will be at the meeting........... unless I win the lottery. Then you can fly in my jet to my private island in the South Pacific and we can program your radios while we fish from my yacht. :)

    Of course, of course. I got my PhD from Google University and my Masters degree from YouTube College. 🤓

    The "Nowhere Else to Put This Insane Crap" thread NEPTIC

    Well, I have no idea what you are talking about 😉 The Baofeng UV-5R is the most popular and has all of the necessary features and is relatively inexpensive. They are easy to program via the front panel (takes a while) or using the Chirp software (free download) a cable is required - Amazon has...

    The "Nowhere Else to Put This Insane Crap" thread NEPTIC

    Well??? Let’s see??? Ummmm. Geeeeee. I guess, maybe, I just got one so that I could learn how to program it so I could program your Baofengs back before you knew how to do it. Yep. That’s my story and I’m sticking with it! I would never own one of those cheap radios (at least that I would admit...

    Geek Alert If you drop your Baofeng UV5R, the retainer clip that holds in the battery will most likely break. I just ordered a pack of 10 replacement clips. Let me know if you need one. I hope I won’t need all 10 of them.

    Tech Day - Electrical Class

    Oh no!!! Bummer. So sorry. I’m sure choosing to go to Myrtle or the tech day was an extremely difficult decision. 🤔 So, there is an option… we could move the tech day to Myrtle so we can do the class and help you enjoy the beach. I’m in for that. 👍

    CLCC Tech Day thread

    OK, sorry for the delay, I had to wait for some family events to be finalized. Unfortunately, May is booked with family and other stuff (I know, that's not as important as an electrical class). Sorry. The new date for the electrical class is Saturday June 8. Hope that works for everyone. Lunch...

    Anyone want to hit Flagpole Knob this winter?

    Yep. What @Diff Kraken said. Gee, that chart looks really familiar. :geek: The club has 12 "loaner" radios for events. I am not sure where they are living at the moment. Also, the batteries are starting to get old (like me) so they may not last all day. So take a spare battery with you...

    Stay away from Ourisman Fairfax Toyota. Stupid/ ignorant damage to my brand new 4R.

    Winch question

    Any receiver can be vulnerable to RF (radio frequency) interference in a variety of ways. It might be interesting to do some experiments to see how susceptible winch receivers are to transmitters (CB, FRS, GMRS, MURS, HAM, cell phones) that are used on trails.

    Winch question

    The other concern with remote control winches is interference. If someone close to the winch (winch’s receiver) transmits on a handheld or mobile radio there is the potential for the radio’s signal to interfere with the signal from the winch’s remote.
