Re: [digitalradio] Removing Linux MBR from hard drive
Try "partboot" (dowloadable from the internet). You can delete Linux/NTSF/MSDOS partitions and make partitions with it. --- On Tue, 5/19/09, Patrick Weatherford wrote: From: Patrick Weatherford Subject: Re: [digitalradio] Removing Linux MBR from hard drive To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Date: Tuesday, May 19, 2009, 3:00 PM Try Fdisk /mbr http://support.microsoft.com/kb/69013 Patrick AE5PW On 5/19/2009 4:40 PM, Dave wrote: I apologize if this is too far off topic. Playing with Linux this past week I apparently hosed my old laptop. I can boot from a floppy, but not from the hard drive. FDISK doesn't help and neither does FORMAT - when it tries to boot from the hard drive I get an error message indicating it's still trying to boot from XUBUNTU. Can anyone tell me, using the bootable floppy I have, how I can get rid of the Linux MBR? Under FDISK, it won't let me delete either the DOS partition or the EXT DOS partition. Any help greatly appreciated! Tnx es 73 Dave KB3MOW

Sounds like the effects of Hetrodyne noise and natural propogation shift. --- On Thu, 10/2/08, Andrew O'Brien <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > From: Andrew O'Brien <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: [digitalradio] Re: odd signal on 80M? > To: "DIGITALRADIO" > Date: Thursday, October 2, 2008, 5:10 PM > make that http://www.obriensweb.com/odd.wav > > > On Thu, Oct 2, 2008 at 8:08 PM, Andrew O'Brien > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Several of us in a regional et o 80M heard an odd > sound every few > > mniutes .

According to the news today, all 22 crewmembers are safe and were able to weather the storm!

Re: [digitalradio] Monitoring merchant vessel Antalina ?
Keep them in your prayers! Evidently they used VHF marine, or possibly HF. They are in the Gulf of Mexico, so ship-to-shore freqs are probably possible. In a related story, I live on the North Coast of California, and in 1991 I talked to a boat 75 miles out (west) with an AM Citizens Band radio using only 2 watts (before I got my Ham License). The antenna was a center-loaded "trucker's" mirror mount antenna I nailed to the peak of a 1-story house about 100 feet above sea-level. I live in an apartment now, antenna restrictions, arghhh!!! 73, kd6aaj --- On Fri, 9/12/08, Andrew O'Brien <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > From: Andrew O'Brien <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: [digitalradio] Monitoring merchant vessel Antalina ? > To: "DIGITALRADIO" , [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Date: Friday, September 12, 2008, 4:05 PM > Anyone know of frequencies to monitor for traffic related to > the > stranded ship, Antalina ? > > -- > Andy K3UK > > > > Announce your digital presence via our Interactive Sked > Page at > http://www.obriensweb.com/sked > > Yahoo!
