I can program the baofengs it’s the Radioiddy GD-73 I cannot due to no computer
Still here, I live in Cabarrus County now. Been working for the local HEMS agency for 7 years. Mainly monitor on various handhelds issued through work and a Unication G5, mostly parked on UASI and VIPER.

I recently move up from Florida (a year long vacation) and I am living in the Hendersonville NC area. I have my General Ham ticket which I was studying for back when this thread was new.
I am getting active on the local repeaters in Hendersonville as well as on DMR and Dstar. I'm still trying to figure out what Emergency Services I can monitor up here if any. I am really looking forward to getting involved with POTA and SOTA now that I am up here.

~What do you monitor on a daily basis? Brunswick and Pender County, VIPER, and Aeronautical - but starting to focus more now on what I can be able to listen to or digitally monitor with the SDR module. Been wanting to explore SDR for a while now.

Hello. I'm Randy from Thomasville, NC. I currently have a Baofeng BF-H7 (or know as a Raidoddity GA-510 in CHIRP lol) that I basically just use to listen to Davidson County & Guilford County Fire & EMS (no RX of course) and when I am REALLY bored, I will listen in on the local Thomasville Wal-Mart (154.6000 91.5PL if you're interested) just to hear the local gossip about what happened in the women's department last night or what happened in the parking lot earlier that day or if I'm feeling really mischievous, I might even call for a manager on duty to come to electronics... yeah, I have a exciting life lol. I've had a few Baofengs in the past just to piddle around with but nothing serious, it started out as a "let's see if I can figure this out" kind of thing out of boredom and a few bucks to spare so with some help from others and youtube, I learned just enough to keep me from giving up on it but not so much that have a excuse to go for HAM lol. Best wishes to all!
Careful those Walmart cops can be rough!
Go for the Ham license, it's not that hard with a little study. You'll meet a lot of good people with similar interests. Lots of interesting things to keep you amused and out of trouble.

~SE Polk County about a mile from Rutherford County
~Yaesu FT-710 AES is my primary HF radio. I have an Icom 7300 for my HF backup. For VHF/UHF I have a Yaesu FT-1900 as well as several Yaesu HTs. For DMR I have an Anytone AT-D578UVIII Plus in the shack and an Anytone AT-D878UVII Plus for portable use. I also have a Skybridge MAX Hotspot. In addition I have a Xiegu G90 and an sBitx for field usage.
~Other than HF and the local VHF/UHF/DMR repeaters I haven't figured out what is available in my area. But I do listen online to Polk and Rutherford County Police/Fire/EMS?
I am a big weather geek and I spend a lot of time monitoring weather radar n my area. I also have a weather station outside to monitor local conditions.
I move to the area about 18 months ago. I am originally from Florida. and I switch between my home here and the on in NE Florida.
