Well, Bulverde is pretty. Son of a friend of mine is Fire Chief there. Been mainly on IRLP and AllStar lately, and hang out on .37 2 mtr repeater. Been inactive for quite a while.

Hi Larry, I trust you are doing well. It has been a spell since we crossed paths. We moved to Bulverde in 1997. Being hill country, I rarely get on the local repeaters anymore.

Re: saradioclub

Yes, you need FCC license & radio- see below from bottom of application form. The plate is FREE (state), however there may be county fees to convert existing plate to ham license one
I certify I hold a current FCC Mobile Amateur Radio License, and I regularly operate the mobile radio equipment in each vehicle listed on this application. Signature Form VTR-53 Rev 11/2017

Thanks, Don. I don't think you have to have a radio, just be a licensed ham.
I've been playing around with IRLP and AllStar Link recently. Lots of activity there. Look for the RepeaterBook app for your phone. It will show you details about all the repeaters/nodes in your vicinity. I've
also just gotten on an OpenSpot2 and waiting on a FT-70DR to get on digital. From what I can tell on the OpenSpot2, there's a lot of activity there as well. Check out www.EsstCoastReflector.com (maybe .org??)

Hello Larry, It's been a while since you and I have talked. Remember somewhere in the rules that one must have a radio in their vehicle if they had played. Perhaps that was old school. Been wanting to rebuild, but frankly, there's not much in the way of chatter anywhere. Been dragging my feet on replacing equipment and amplifiers. Kind of like computers. Do you run Linux or Microsoft anymore? Been looking at DStar all mode VHF/UHF/HF from Icom. Good to see your name and see that you're still around. 73's de Don W5JX Donald Lee Jones 122 Saratoga Dr. San Antonio, Texas 78213-3543 Cell Telephone (210) 374-1776 n5wsw@... or dj1072@...
