[Hallicrafters] Yo Humans! Boatanchor Blues?

[Duane Fischer, W8DBF]

Yo Carbon Base Life Forms Of The Series Homo Sapien!

It is I. Frogzilla! No applause, just send cash! These are hard times even 
for amphibians! You think that a bread line sucks like an old Hoover with a 
beater your carpets to death bar with too much tension? Try squatting in a 
reconstituted Dragon Fly line!

If you are feeling depressed due to the lack of HF or VHF or X-Band 
propagation, you are not alone. Almost every electronic thing with an 
antenna is having circuit lapses, frantic filaments from gas on the grid and 
a fear of being raffled off at a Ham Fest for a door prize. Door mat, door 
prize, both get the foot! If you catch my pond ripple drift. CROAK!

Do not feel hopeless if your ex-wife has that guy on TV who does the Louie 
The Buck Sucker infommercial sending his law school dropouts to your door 
trying to collect back child support payments. Those guys could not catch a 
Cold if it stopped and waited for them! CROAK! I've got one on my tail who 
is trying to collect some pond scum Aphid Money for forty thousand Tadpoles 
that I did not propagate or father! He is threatening to have me skinned and 
my hyde turned into amphibian wallets, Frog Slush Puppies and amphibian 
aftershave for those who want to smell like a surfer without the risks! 
Don't feel rejected! Think about the U.S. Mint taking Abraham Lincoln off 
the penny after one hundred years! If Old Abe can get the hoof, there is 
nothing in this country that is safe!

Join us on Sunday August 30th for the HHI 20 meter Net. "Waste Not, Want 
Not!" Let the grass grow! Let the weeds live another few days! Let the 
shrubs become indescrible, like todays teenage haircuts! Relax! Kick back, 
warm up those wonders that still go glow in the dark and let's play the new 
Pong game, Propagation Angles and Skip Hop Points. A wave sent, is a message 
received - somewhere in this solar system!

The Pre-Net commences at 12:45 PM EST/EDT, or 1645 UTC. And guys, why do you 
send the blind dude QSL cards with times like 14:45 and other non UTC times?

The HHI Net proper kicks off at 1:15 PM EST/EDT, or 1715 UTC.

The frequency is 14.293 MHZ usb +/- for key clicks, mike splatter and 
assorted splatter from over compressed solid state rigs that destroy Coms 
about +/-8 KHz! If you can't be loud, then be wide! CROAK! Listen for the 
Net from 14.292 through 14.293 MHZ usb. Depending on the coefficient of 
friction between the dial cord and the tuning knob, we'll be there 
somewhere! Hey! If ya can't drift, float!

Hear is hopping to hear many of you tomorrow. So pull up a chair, or a Lily 
Pad, and let's see how many neighbors electric devices we can activate from 
our remote location!

Frogzilla
