Hello Ron, and welcome. You'll enjoy retirement and wonder how the hell you ever found time for work.
The barkeep will be along shortly. Enjoy the cocktail and don't put your eye out with the umbrella.

Welcome to the shores here Ron :)
Welcome to the Island, Ron. I haven't experimented on 13.560MHz—too many other things I want to do on the regular ham bands first—but it sounds like it might be fun. Please keep us informed of your progress.
Barkeep, set this man up with the umbrella drink of his choice and put it on my tab!
All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
There's no more room on your tab. It's worse than the national debt.Originally Posted by KJ6BSO

Not true! My tab is less than $1 million!

Welcome Ron. I have a solar powered beacon on 13.5605. I also used to be a broadcast engineer.
Used to be? Honey, once a broadcast engineer, always a BCE. It's an "in the blood" thingy. We are a dying breed. I wonder how many of them today can run radial readings on an AM or do a proof. It's been so long for me, I don't even know if that has to be done anymore with all the dereg and what not. I would think you would to ensure compliance with rules, regs, and station license parameters.

Just thought i would complete the union mandated greeting post, the names Jamie and i live in sunny south wales ( about 30 miles from cardiff). Glad to be a member of this here forum provided we dont have badges saying Full Member (mw0uzo will know what i mean )
Owdy mate. Welcome to the island shores. Pull up a rock, relax, and our pub tender will be along shorty to serve you an umbrella drink or an ale. I'll join you, and we'll put them on Carl's tab.

Nice to meet you, Jamie and welcome to The Island. I think you'll find the natives friendly and the umbrella drinks to your liking—especially since all drinks here go on my tab, which I never pay.
I see you're a fan of the digital modes so perhaps we can make a PSK31 QSO one day. With my wimpy little station, it's my preferred mode of operation as well.
