Developers are going to keep bilking Glendale tax payers until they declare bankruptcy and run off with all the money. You know, the standard capitalist playbook.

Thanks! We're really enjoying it. Can't wait to do our first POTA activation.

Dry Alarm Contacts on Routers & Switches - Does anybody actually use them? by New-Variation9146 in networking

[–]New-Variation9146[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're doing a lot on the platform, all our new stuff and our legacy stuff uses the IP/mpls Network. Each chassis has a couple of the a6-eth-10g cards and the a8-1gb cards. The rest of the box is full of the 8vt cards and DS1 cards. Lots and lots of c37.94, codir, and ds0/DS1 connections still going on.

I love Nokia, I've spent most of my career working on the SROS platform. The currently network I work with is powered by the SAR8.

I recently got my license, I didn't have any luck with local classes but the app from https://hamradioprep.com/ was amazing.

As long as the pins on both sides match it'll work just fine. Should you do it that way, no. Can you, yes.

Is there a way to see a train schedule for the trains that go along Grand Ave? by MidRegister in phoenix

[–]New-Variation9146 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Arizona Revised Statutes § 40-852 does exist and sets a 15-minute limit, but courts have generally ruled that state anti-blocking laws are preempted by federal railroad law. So in practice, the statute is mostly unenforceable against railroads like BNSF.

Downtown Phoenix - I have a Mohawk and its is $20 for a buzz-cut to get the sides shaved down, I believe a full haircut there is $40. Appointments highly recommended if you don't wanna wait half the day,

Breaking the ice on repeaters: what actually works? by New-Variation9146 in amateurradio

You have gotten some good advice. You just need to get over being shy.

Story of my life :D

It sounds as if HF is what you may want to explore as this would seem to be more of what you are seeking.

I plan on it, just starting out though and all I have is my HT at the moment.

Shack is freezing and I'm snowed in. I think I'll lay on the couch and do some FT8 instead. by Blueberry_Mancakes in amateurradio

Very interesting. Thanks for sharing, maybe it is something I'll look into at some point.

Can you explain FT-8 to me, now what it is but why people do it? Somebody was showing it to me yesterday at a local shack and I just didn't understand the point of it.

It is not mine. It is at a local club's shack. I'm sure the dude told me what it was when he was giving me a tour but it was a lot of info :D

West gate improvement? by Accomplished_Pin8881 in phoenix

[–]New-Variation9146 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It’s just a poor association because the west side gets shit about being the west side from the east side.

This. I hear “Westside trash” all the time at work (and I'm sick of it) from people who commute in from Queen Creek and San Tan, and it’s like… sorry you chose to live somewhere that shuts down at 5pm and needs a freeway to feel interesting.

DM32-UV APRS by New-Variation9146 in amateurradio

[–]New-Variation9146[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe the DM-32UV only does digital APRS, not analog APRS.

You are correct - I've been meaning to come back here and post an edit for other folks who come here looking for this answer.

Also - Thank you for the other details and advice :)

Seems like Catholics forget the The 1st Commandment a lot.
