How do people like that get a ham license??? That's as bad as the guy that kept complaining about a 'hum' on the output of a repeater. After several weeks, I finally figured out he was talking about the CTCSS on the output. I told him there is something wrong with his radio if he's hearing it. That's when he told me he had a 12" bass reflex guitar speaker on his 2M radio...I told him to get rid of that speaker and stop complaining. -- Jim Barbour WD8CHL
