I do know by the FCC Rules I should have a call Sign but I asked one question and felt like I was a Piece of trash. Don , couldn't you have told me to go down a Frequency or something and had giving some Info ? Jim Johnson has been very helpful on most things and I know what it takes to become a Ham. I Am Disabled and my Memory is not good but I do ok. My question is why couldn't you say hey ( Bill Prescott ) Maybe we can have some help to get what you need to talk ? I Listened for a while and there were Rash's , Maybe Hemorrhoids , Tooth Ache but I could not learn anything or was I offered Anything. </div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1449782478523_25031" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1449782478523_25031" dir="ltr">Other then becoming a Ham , What is you Friendship ?
