Myself and two of my neighbors bought Baofeng BR-5 handhelds. (under $35) Never gave this much thought until the El Reno tornado passed close by here. Game changer.

You must have tested for your license at the OKC Hamfest in July 2013. My wife tested then and got KF5WRR for a callsign.

Yes I Did! I probably was at the same table w/your wife. Cool!

 

[KOPBET]

I am, but I'm not posting my home address here by showing my call sign.

I'm an Extra Class, been doing it since 1979. Had to do the tests before the FCC back then, all but the novice class, and I did it with the Choctaw Amateur Radio Club. The Elmer Ham who got me started had me copying 15wpm thinking I was doing 5. Had no problem getting up to Advanced, took me a little while to get to Extra from there. I am also a VE if needed.

Got mine end of last year. . .currently in the market for a good mobile unit to use as a base. Thinking something in the Kenwood lineup right now.

My 8 yr old son wants to get his license so we took a class together, will hopefully be taking the test soon. Trying to find components to put a budget home setup together. I figure there's a lot worse things he could be interested in, might as well encourage this!
