Thank you.  I am hoping that was fate getting all the bad stuff out of the way early, so that the rest of the year will be nicer.

The problem with working to tough with these repair people is that they will walk off the job reporting you as a problem customer.  Then it can be months before the company will send someone else.

I have a couple of 11 meter band CB handheld trancivers and a base station too.  The base station needs the power mains.  As for the walkie talkies batteries so not problems there but they CB is not so popular anymore, You can almost never hear anyone on it anymore.

That never made sense to me how the 11 meter bad got selected for CB.  That band is a long range one, but with CB we can not talk for mor than five miles away.  The equipment is QRP but still is capable of long range. So we are limited by law alone.  So, one of the first comments in many converstations is "Your 10-20?"  Then followed by "Going 10-10 your 20 is too far."
