neither does our goddess

I might need to wire an antenna up to the roof

I think my building has bad reception

Someone in my hometown is selling the most beautiful scanner I've ever seen

Feast your eyes fgts

k

Wot

I might ask my dad to get it and I'll pay him back when I have a job

Hammin' is addictive @Deleted User

i actually wanted to get into HAM

you gotta get a licence here in america though

Not if you listen

Only if you transmit

true

the test is supposedly ez

and the questions are provided

yeah it's not meant to be hard, its just so that you don't start blasting shit on the channels that emergency services uses

Yeah I've taken a look at mock tests

Ez

There are different class licenses so some tests are easier than the other

its mostly because they dont want a bunch of bk randy's blocking out important radio shit

There's pmr4600 for civilians

Legal to use

there you go comfy

paper background

Sadly I have to to learn Morse code for any class license here

that looks nice, better than the .10 one

damn

FCC removed that

>never have any space for tons of tech

I accidentally bought piss yellow light bulbs

We never have enough space horizontally

Need to unfuck my shit

i'm using warm white in this one

>warm white

Madman

i have warm whie everything

mainly because it contrasts well with my puple blue LEd striplighting

Why not daylight white or cool white?

because those dont go well with my striplighting

I bought some strip lights from Gearbest

Can't wait to gaymur up my desk

Maybe paint it black and use the red setting

strip lights?

also have to make sure all three screens are color co ordinated

stripl lights

50 dollars and they give you a light show

Mine was £5 kek

mine were 15 AU

not bad through

lasted me three+ years

no housefires

Got gb points off it

@marmalade its for making your desk have that light glow behind it

In pretty much every battlestation pic

aww thats awesome

link pls

>smoking indoors

i dont want to ruin my shit

The scanner I got is smoker yellow

Looks groce

The only thing allowed to be smoker yellow is model ms

nothing should be smoker yellow

you can do a lot of shit to whited yellowed plastic

>not wanting your model m to look old and smoked on

>smoking on things

what

I'm thinking about what white plastics from today will look like in 20 years

but no one makes white plastic electronics today

Samsung tabs are white

At least the tab 4 is

The wii u had a white one

And the white Xbox one/ps4

And a few laptops are white

Monte

Share your scanner

I have no scanner

Inb4 baofeng

At least not where I am

Show bunker

http://icomamerica.com/en/products/amateur/hf/718/default.aspx

I take a pic of the radio tomorrow

Is there an /out/ discord

I'm going to look

http://www.icomamerica.com/en/products/amateur/mobile/2300H/default.aspx
And maybe 2 of that

I think everyone in that branch of my family is a ham operator

In all we have like 6 or 7 ham radios

Are you all prepping for the apocalypse?

I think my uncle is the president of the dead ham radio club

No

I think it's because of the work he did he got into it

I still haven't got my scanner working

Going to need to go to a ham radio meeting

See if someone can walk me through it

You can't program in a repeater from what I can tell

That's y classes are recommended instead of just taking the exam u get hands-on experience

Yeah I got a baofeng dirt cheap on prime day

And fucking with the scanner made me know what to do instantly

Oh Shit I y didn't I look for radios

how much was the baofeng yesterday

i might have fucked up

It was a warehouse deal

So cheap

like 15?

idk about pounds

but

Plus there was £10 off if you subbed to an audible trial

That's why I don't name prices in here

Someone is always like "convert that for me"

I'm just asking for the total

i can google a conversion myself

Like £16

ah thats about what i payed

It's a yellow one though

What's higher now the pound or the USD

just the color variant, is no different than the 5r

pound is still more

ah nevermind thats a good deal i payed 26

yeah looks the same

did you get a different antenna

Coming later

ah

Got it for free

£10 off voucher

You got the coloured one nice

Nice

I keep pressing the PTT button while pushing in the USB cable

Started turning it off

While I mess with it

ill probably get that 16.5in antenna

The antenna is more important than the handset from what I've read

yeah

Osomatsu is getting to heavy for me

stop

Ham radio anime when

nothing would happen for 24 minutes

just static

I saw there's software which scans frequencies on your PC

every episode would be 24 mins of one frequency

Then spits out which ones are alive

Might make it easier for monitoring

A ton of frequencies near me have gone digital

Going to need a digital scanner

Yeah that's the trend now

There's no updated frequency list in years

I think the ham repeaters here are still analogue
But I don't know which ones are still up

There's three near me

I put them all in

North, central and east

I think that's why I can only find taxis, any company worth their salt would invest in digital

Apparently people plot gang wars on the 100mhz band here

Been monitoring it

But that software sounds better, easier if you know where to look

Yo niggas

Reccomend me a phone that has band 12, volte, and a fingerprint sensor

no

:question: **Question**: `should I do a hilariously uninformed video review of the Baofeng which then gets torn apart by autists 5 minutes after uploading?`
🎱 **8Ball Answers**: `Yes`

Lel okay

I can't wait

"this is the baofeng, i have no clue how it works. right now it'd doesn't work at all" five stars

"I guess it's okay"

That's all my reviews

The James donkey one especially

"seems like it works okay, 10/10 masterpiece"

start screaming into a channel

Comfy confirmed for not knowing what he's talking about

"this how you transmit"

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"

Monte, of course I don't

3/4 of the stuff I review its the first time I've owned anything like it

And then autists come wading in

Good way to learn I guess

As with most reviews

Especially when it's 'new' tech

lol 0204

Portable power bank reviews were bad for that for a while

"it charges my phone good I guess"

Then autists started obsessing over the individual cells

trust me you dont want batteries from a chink

bestfire

Not even Xiaomi ones?

Xiaomi uses LG and Samsung cells

some of the best

slib I'm going to knock you around a bit

yeah i found just revieweing my xiaomi bank in a picture was fine
"came in a nice box, looks the same as a picture, definatley charges my phone."

i think "works as intended" is pure gold

sounds good

That's all /csg/ needs most of the time

"buyfag figure, it looks ok"

"GIMME A LINK"

fucking hate giving links out because of aus EBay where i got some shit

no fucking point in it

no good to anyone other than other aussies

You should hate spoonfeeding full stop

Don't forget to comment on the build quality

"it's built like a powerbank, i guess"
