I've been off the ham airwaves for about 15 years. I'm now serving as
an Assistant Scoutmaster in Loveland Co and my interest to get back on
the Ham airwaves has returned. To make a long story short, I bought and
built a K2 last month and used it mobile this past week on my travel to
and from Texas where I helped my Mom and Pa In-Law recover from
Hurricane Rita down in Orange, TX. The K2 is a wonderful radio. I used
a $15 "Texas Ranger" CB microphone with very good reports from everyone.
This Saturday morning I'll introduce Ham Radio to about 6-8 Scouts via
the JOTA (Jamboree on the Air). The scouts don't seem very interested
in Ham Radio, just computer games. I hope to spark some interest to Ham
radio in them. I'll try to do some CW with them also (even though I'm a
little rusty).
