We've all been there, and wire antennas are cheap and effective.Barry, K4RUE, also a recently licensed ham, enjoys the show and the music.George, N0JRJ, likes the podcast and listens on his commute. He also liked the live show, and appreciates Richard's attitude toward new hams.Kirk, KG6HPF, says Resonant Frequency helped inspire him to pass his General exam.Lance, K7LDS, suggests that the show notes be updated to include website URLs and other information. He also suggests that interaction with the chat room during the live show be made more descriptive for folks listening to the recorded version. Lance suggests doing a future show on mobile radio installation hints. Good idea! Send in your mobile installation hints via email or the forum. 16:05 Check out Linux Cranks (http://linuxcranks.info) as Richard has been a guest onthat podcast, too. 17:30 Live Show: We're still trying to schedule another live show.
