I remember when I was a kid, my dad had to get a license when he got his CB.

I got my CB radio license in the 70s - KQB4814; and I still have a 23-channel CB laying around somewhere.brentbba wrote:LOL - somebody as old as I am!

Re: OAUSA Radio net
I think they changed the echolink from -L to -R or vice-versa. You may need to update your bookmarks. Not sure of the exact details, but it was mentioned tonight.Arkarch wrote:Decided to check-in - noticed KE6TZG-L was 'off'.

Re: OAUSA Radio net
Yep, it's been changed from KE6TZG-L to KE6TZG-R. If you have KE6TZG-L saved in your favorites, just delete it from favorites and save KE6TZG-R to your favorites.

Re: OAUSA Radio net
Thanks for the update,
And as it turns out, I am returning home on a flight Thursday night, so I'll miss this 2-12 too..... Something about my Thursdays.
