Before hurricane Helene i ordered a couple cheap handheld ham UV5R radios, in case we lost cell service. Since then i have become very interested in the amateur radio stuff. I am just amazed at how much there is to learn. I think ill just stick with the GMRS frequencies for now. However, learning about these old will help me understand more about this fascinating hobby. Cheers

Logo is sick but it could use some crossed Thompson submachine guns, a huge aura of flames, and coming out of the gun barrels, cobras with eye patches, smoking joints. I've had good luck dipping yellow acetate handled screwdrivers in acetone for a few seconds after a cursory cleanup, letting them air dry. Sometimes a few dips. They come out shiny and clear. It can affect stamped brand logos but that doesn't bother me. I have some syrnleys, a few prtxs, a klnnn, and some bntnx & donktrs.

WOW! What a good friend! I love that radio. When I got into Amatuer Radio, a friend of mine loaned me his Collins 75A-4 receiver to get started. I always wanted to get one of those "boat anchors." Maybe one day. Nice video. Looking forward to the next video.

Likely a reproduction, there's hundreds on eBay. Some marked Alcatraz, some San Quentin, some Folsom and some just say things like "Insane Asylum"......Pretty neat though, I like to find a big one like that for 5 Bucks.
@wireworks616Ай бұрын
@rawbacon Don't think it's a reproduction. I have locks similar that are reproduction. The repros are machine made, you can see the difference. This one was hand made. The pins and keys are different from each other.

You do know that WD40 is not a penetrating oil. It a water dispersion fluid. That why it called WD.

There’s a place, maybe Disney that has a replica Excalibur sword like that in a rock that has a electro magnet inside the rock- a flip of the switch lets you withdraw the sword and if you don’t know where the switch is you can’t budge it! 😃👍

Screwdriver came out great. My first time on your channel and I have to say when I first heard your voice I immediately thought I recognized it. I cannot be the first to tell you that you sound a lot like Levon Helm the musician/ actor.
