I heard you maybe a week ago sitting in the McDonald's parking lot in Burnsville, NC on my Cobra 75. You sounded like you were sitting in the car next to me. I tried to wave back but I doubt my signal made to the street. :lol: . You said that day that everybody in the east must have their beams pointed towards you because of all the traffic. Your radio sounds awesome. no distortion what-so-ever.....Mountain 509

My Numbers are a little bit of story. On AM we used to use numbers for the club we were in and were assigned by the leaders of the club we hung out on channel 14. They ended up dumping the numbers and just went with handles I'm a banjo player so my handle is the Bman . On side band my numbers are 369 . I joined the Radio Canada DX Club and got the Radio Canada 369. I'm also a member of the Texas Rebel Group with the numbers of Rebel 2769. Thanks for reading Bman/Dave
