I sold all my Ham stuff some yrs back when I got disinterested in ham radio. I kept my tower, a dummy load and a electronic keyer that I built. I let my license expire too. I retook the General test last year. So now I'm KE5ZXF. I haven't bought any radios yet.

KB8QIE here, My 109 is not home yet but it will be getting a radio right after it gets heat in the cab:) Any one here have any suggestions for head sets not only for radio interface but person to person comms?

I used Sennheiser noise canceling headsets and a portable aircraft intercom w/MP3 input in the M818. Good stuff. :)

Just got back from taking the Extra Class license exam - passed with 90% score, so now my call sign is KI4JSC/AE. Plan to get a vanity call sign someday in the Spring when hopefully things look up on the job front.
