[WIham] Is anybody out there?

[Mike Miller]

Hello everyone,

I joined this reflector several days ago and have been 
monitoring the traffic. It seems as dead as the local 2 meter 
repeater.

I took and passed the no code Tech exam saturday and was hoping 
to learn something about the Wisconsin ham radio scene from this 
reflector.

I have been monitoring 2 meter FM with my scanner and it seems 
pretty dead in Fond du Lac. I decided I'd listen while waiting 
for my license grant from the FCC, but I haven't heard much so 
far.

Any suggestions on getting started? Equipment suggestions? 
What's out there for the no code Tech to do ?
