Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

Have you tried making sure the button is firmly pressed every time you attempt to broadcast? That can make a difference, or so I'm told.
Maybe you just need a new antenna?

 

Mmmm... I've not paid much attention to that. It never crossed my mind.

 

I was unaware too until one day my wife pointed it out. They do that, wive's they do...

 

Does WiscoPat know about this?

 

Shhhh…. Ignorance is bliss!

 

I took the @ away.....

Notarubicon mentioned the antenna thing when I checked his review before I bought mine, and yup, the antenna was an absolute bitch to get seated well. I've since gone to an external antenna primarily. It only takes a few seconds to switch back if I want to go handheld.

 

Ours here at the house have really distinct white eye rings. What gives?

 

Finally, someone in here with a real radio

 

Now that the radio issue is figured out. I hope guys aren't going to be cackling like a bunch of old ladies when on the trail.

 

I'm pretty ignorant about this radio stuff. What makes the Baofeng so special?

Issues have not been tested yet. TBD. There may be cackling, but not in the way you expect.

 

Is this a headless deer doing ballet?

Timm must have one. It's a good radio, along with probably a dozen other radios.

There's so much shit embedded in these things that it's hard to understand it all unless you're a radio nerd.

Crazy, but even though I just ordered a more higher powered, plug-in and easy to use radio and I have a couple handheld Midlands, I keep thinking of going back and ordering that fancy ass handheld too, just because I like gadgets, most of which I seldom use anywhere near as much as i should. Grrr.
