[QUOTE="Mort, post: 218906, member: 361"] 2400, it is an interesting hobby, back in the mid 70s in Great Falls MT, my neighbor was into HAM radio, believe I was in the 9th grade at the time. His call letters have been with me forever..WB7OJX, Whiskey Bravo Seven Oscar Julliet Xray. He was somewhat a smart kid, he built his own morse code transmitter that would send the CQ code out automatically. I guess you start out with morse code, then take a test before you are able to do voice, at least thats how it was back then, may have changed now. He had an antenna that could rotate 360 by switch, if I saw the antenna move, I knew he was home and would go over and BS with him and watch him do his stuff, he had quite a collection of CQ cards from all over the world.
