Yeah, it is a bit scary to key up for the first time. I monitored the nets for a couple of years before I bit the bullet. It's quite a bit different than my old CB days. More professional and serious but not in a bad way. If you listen to CB nowadays it'll make you cringe!

One of the primary reasons I got the ticket was for emergency communications. I'm part of an emergency preparedness committee and I figured I better practice what I preach! The free radio was nice but I had already found a nice Yaesu 897D to play with, just couldn't play with it the way I wanted to!

One little secret the Hams and the FCC don't like to talk about is that in a true emergency, when no other form of communication is available, you don't need a license to use the ham bands. At least that's how I read it. But you didn't hear it from me.... Icon_biggrin
