Hello, My name Jon.. Im a new user to this type of Fcc radio
Eh well.. I don't have my license yet, i only started reading a few days ago.. took some practice tests, (*not really concerned about that)
should be easy to get my :Technician License (*i kinda know most of it already) Im a Industrial maintenance mechanic and i amateur pilot
I just bought a baofeng Uv-5r got it all set up for the repeaters local to me, Works good, Dont really plan on doing much talking.. bought it more of a dooms day prepper device, but iM listening to you guys, My friend actually talked me in to it was a pretty good idea i think, I was listening to someone from the valley and someone from UK talking the other night, (*Im in 18330) I haven't qued up (*cause technically i cant) but me and my friend get a house to house range with good single of about 1.5 miles
i dont have much to add, except hello! and thank you for letting me in Ive configured for local repeaters and local EMS but other then that all i have to say is
Hello and thank you

You'll find this forum to be a fantastic source of information on any aspect of the hobby, and there's always people willing to help a noob. Familiarizing yourself with the forum structure and sub-forums will enable you to, in many cases, find answers to questions you may have that have already been asked. Starting out small makes sense as you can always add more expensive rigs later when you really start having fun.
