Hey Scott, glad to see you back! Also pleased to hear you’re on the mend. You’re accident has also given me great pause to driving and radios in the car. I’m really at the point where if I don’t want to bolt the radio down, then I won’t put it in the car. Pet peeves? I think “over” is totally unnecessary on VHF/UHF FM. It may be useful on HF nets but I haven’t heard it there. Only MARS nets use “over”. In Army MARS you say, “over” when you have finished talking after the Army MARS net control operator calls on you. When you sign off you just end with plain, “out” and not, “Over and out”. My personal pet peeves? Operators not letting the repeater drop before the net controller says, “Open for checkin” and not letting the repeater drop after saying, “ This is.” On HF? Hams tuning up right on frequency of a net before checking in. Tuning up or down a few KCs won’t kill your SWR reading. That’s it.
@HR4NT Жыл бұрын
Thank you for that. I think you are spot on with that comment. I also notice that folks don't follow protocol on nets by allowing the repeater to drop before continuing. I guess people are going to do what they are going to do. Still irritating. LOL My ham radios are (or were) bolted into the vehicle.

So sorry to hear about your accident but glad to see you up and on the air. I will pray for a speedy recovery for you. I do have a suggestion for a short video. I saw in my QST magazine that there is a Rookie Roundup on April 16, 2023. I am interested in it but the instructions/rules are a little confusing to a rookie like myself. I got my General back in Aug 2022 but have yet to make contact with anyone. I have listened on my Icom Ic-7300 using my Buddipole in my yard until I get my window pass through set up. It's been cold and snowy in CO for me to do it. Anyway, If you could tell me what exactly to say when doing this contest, ,,CQ Rookies,- I get but they have a scoring sheet -multipliers, etc.. which I don't get and UTC time???? I'm in Mountain Daylight timezone. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
@HR4NT Жыл бұрын
I have not gotten into too much contesting for that same reason. The ARRL does not explain things very clearly to assist newbies to be able to understand the rules and procedures and that is unfortunate. I went and took a look at the one you referred to and just when I got into the rules section is went south immediately. There are so many little things that you have to pay attention to to get set up, so I see where you are getting confused. One suggestion I have is to maybe seek out others who have participated in this before and maybe they would have a simpler way to break it down for you where it is easier to understand. UTC time is the universal time for ham radio, you just have to translate that to your time zone so you know when you can operate for the contest. I hope this helps a bit.

Saying "for ID" let's non saavy listeners know why callsigns keep being repeated every 10m. All of this kind of self policing for lingo is why people get mic shy in the 1st place. Leave that Karen BS for the sad hams and let people come to their own conclusions as to how to communicate on the air. Especially when they are not violating any FCC rules.

"Over" is a military radio comm term. You say "over" at the end of a transmission, and you say "Out" when your communication is finished. You never say "Over and out." Anyway, that's military. It can be helpful in long range comm scenarios with poor reception or other "difficult" conditions. I don't see a use for it as a ham, though, especially on a repeater where transmission clarity isn't typically an issue (and repeaters frequently have a 'tail'). Maybe useful in simplex ops?

I get that. It's just in ham radio it is unnecessary. There is no law saying you can't do it, but the person on the other end might look at you weird...LOL Thanks for watching and for the comment. 73!

I had a guy complain he didn't know when I was done talking and to say over or something last week.

I would think that when words cease to come out of his speaker for a given amount of time that would indicate it was his turn to talk...Hey, whatever works. I was merely making a suggestion. Thanks for the comment and for watching. 73!!

On your video, "how to talk on a ham radio-making your first contact", you state in your presentation around the 5 minute 20 second mark (and you even wrote it in your power point) to use your call sign "for I.D." every 10 minutes during a long conversation. So saying "for I.D." changed? I'm still a fairly new ham and I just want to say the right thing.

I have been told you can do it either way, but honestly, when you give your call sign, you are at that point identifying yourself. In the video you referenced, at that time I thought that was the way to do it until I thought about it and asked around. I found that giving your call sign alone is just fine. You won't get in trouble by saying "for I.D.", but I think it is unnecessary. I hope this helped clear things up. Thanks for watching and for the comment. 73!!

I have to say over after transmitting at work so it's a habit.

No worries. It is not a mandatory thing, but some hams might look at you sideways sometimes for saying it. Just have fun and enjoy the hobby! Thanks for watching and for the comment. 73!
