APRS = ? This is where you use gps devices interfaced to computers to
send your position out over packet radio. Very cool new technology.
And Ron is leading the way in this area.

Welcome Jill, glad you're joining us. And it was cool to see your
emerging website. We've just moved to what I hope to be faster bandwidth.
What special areas of radio and ham radio interest you the most?

Bare with me, I'm kinda tired and was thinking of getting some shut eye as my dad would say. I am mainly interested in public service (such as ARES), contesting, and the latest find (as of tonight...err last night. man it's already 2am.) fox hunting. Gotta get some equipment for that last one though. I think it's time to buy some parts and expeirence the joy of building a quad. I also gotta locate an attenuater. (spelling?)
My spelling usually lacks a little. As you could tell from my web site. :) One of my professors the other day said something really cool about spelling. (After we laughed at his speling of the word pool. He said, "You know the relationship between spelling and creativity? They have the inverse realationship." After he came up with that, I don't mind spelling bad all the time. :)

Jill, if you'd like a shell account on the Spring, you're welcome to
one. The UNIX editors there have spell checkers, for example, in 'pico'
you can type control-t or ^T and it displays every misspelled word in
alphabetical order and let's you automatically replace it. I'm a good
speller but sometimes I try to type too fast.
We have vi and joe also and I believe they have spell checkers. We don't
have this on our web interface yet. Perhaps someday. Looks like we need
to start a building antennas topic, what do you think Jill?

Spell checkers are wonderful things. I am not very familiar with UNIX. I basically know how to get around and use vi to edit source code and that's it. I am afraid that's about the extent of my knowledge of unix. So, if I did get a shell account from the spring, I'm afraid I'd need lots of help.
About the topic addition: Sure, why not. How do I do it? Or, do you?

You can do it from the 'add topic' button at the top of the screen on the
web and in the shell you do it with 'e'. We try and keep topics of as
broad general interest as possible. The radio conference is about radio
in general including ham radio, broadcast radio, etc.

Howdy All
Greetings from frozen Czech-cago-land!
Although a native Austinite, Im hanging out in the frozen north.
Why? Good Question! I split my radio interest between vintage toob gear
(keeps the shack warm...), old spy radios, microwave, and satellite. When
I visit the wonderful city of Austin, I can be found on the 442.150 machine.

Guitar picker, music legend and Amateur Radio operator Chester B.
''Chet'' Atkins, W4CGP, of Nashville, Tennessee, died June 30. He was
77.
Known as ''Mister Guitar,'' Atkins hailed from East Tennessee and
began his musical career playing fiddle, but later earned his
reputation as a guitarist. He went on to become the most-recorded
solo instrumental musician in history.
Formerly WA4CZD, Atkins, a General licensee, obtained the vanity
call sign W4CGP in 1998--the suffix standing for ''certified guitar
picker.'' He was an ARRL member. He won 14 Grammy awards during his
career and was elevated to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1973.
He was presented with a Lifetime Achievement Award in 1993 by the
National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences in part to recognize
his guitar-picking technique as well as his wide influence on music.
He had more than 100 albums to his credit.
In addition to his own success as a performer, Atkins helped launch
the careers of other notable performers. He is given primary credit
for developing the uptown Nashville Sound that helped country music
to compete with pop music.
In his later years of performing, he sometimes paired up with
musicians from the pop and jazz worlds and was a frequent guest on
the radio program ''A Prairie Home Companion.''
A funeral service for Chet Atkins will be held July 3 in Nashville's
Ryman Auditorium, which formerly served as the home of The Grand Ole
Opry where Atkins performed for many years.
