Welcome to the Old North State.
I agree with the others, 122 F in Feenix
is NOTHING like 98 here in July or August.
Get ready to sweat...

This is my first posting to the group, I always
wondered why it almost never got used.

I live about 20 miles SE of Charlotte in Union County.

Besides ham radio my primary interest is collecting
antique radios. I've been actively collecting for
more that 37 years. If anyone is interested you are invited
to visit my radio collection web pages at,

I've been a ham for 16 years and just upgraded to General.
I'm active on our local UHF and 6 meter repeaters here
in Union County. I have a TS-520s feeding a G5RV for HF,
but I'm kinda disappointed with HF, my radio works fine and
have talked all over the world, but I've really gotten sick of
the pissing contests on HF.
"You can't talk here, this is our freq."
"You're not respectable if you don't run an big amp", etc ,etc...
