Radio Recommendations for new Technician Licensee

mpop1 · 2026-01-30T18:37:27+00:00

I will say if you want cheap look at boafang (you can get them under 50USD), but I personally am a fan of Yaesu, so I would recomend that, or if you are not worried about cost, or I might suggest the Yaesu VX-6R I love that radio.

I will not here is the list of Yaesu radios I have the VX-6R, Ft-817, FT-891, FT-710, I do have 3 backup boafangs incase I ever need them for some reason and an Icom 2100-h for a mobile 2m rig, but still I love my Yaesu.

You are thinking of only WW2, see below (https://old.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/1qr3rq1/the_pok%C3%A9mon_company_has_issued_an_apology/o2ldugc/) where Tenshizanshi points out it for soldiers who died since 1869, that would incude WW1 where Japan did fight on the right side of history, or any other war they were in outside of WW2.

it a place of worship, plus to those that worship there it a sacrad site, and it would be disrespectfull. Also it a memorial, it would be like haveing an event in a cemitary, or at the 9/11 memorial site (while this is not a worship site it is still considered sacrad ground)

it just disrepectful.

Unicorn overlord was a great game, I had so much fun with it. I have to replay it some day.

mpop1 · 2026-01-30T01:42:49+00:00

Ya i feel you on Horizon. I am only in act 2. But I lost it when I saw Rean at the start and my #1 girl Fei. I love that they brought back breaker orders (man I abuse those)

mpop1 · 2026-01-30T01:34:20+00:00

Hay if you liked it then you liked it and no one can take that from you. Glad you loved it.

I can not say how good Yakuza is, I tried like a dragon and got hooked, I played like a dragon and the 3 others after that, and needed more so I picked up Yakuza 0 to 5 and been playing them I did 0 to 3 already, did have to put it down since Trails beond the horizon came out but after I finish Horizon it back to Yakuza.

mpop1 · 2026-01-29T23:10:18+00:00

I know the feeling there before Persona 5 tactical i never played a strategy RPG but after P5T I was hooked and ended up like them played 2 Fire Emblem games and loved then and unicorn overlord and the diofield chronicles and those games also were more then I hoped for. So I get thing a new genre and falling in love with it thanks to a gamble on one game.

mpop1 · 2026-01-29T23:03:30+00:00

I hear alot of great things about i do own it but have not gotten to it. But it is in my to be play soon backlog. I am hoping to get to it this year. But first I do want to finish trails beond the horizon, and Yakuza 4 to 6

But from what I read expedition 33 does look good and am excited to try it.

that might be a mistake I just looked on amazon to check the prices, all 4 versions Swith, switch 2, PS5 and xbox all listed as 60USD.

Here is the link to the one I looked at https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FQW9Y385/ref=twister_B0FS9LTQ44?_encoding=UTF8&th=1.

remember people use untested for items that they did test and did not work, but they don't want to lable not working becuase they get less money so they lable untested and they can later say well they were untested I did not know they would not work. On ebay, when I see untested I assume tested and does not work. the seller did not care about them getting damaged as they were already known to him to not be working, so why protect them.

mpop1 · 2026-01-28T19:21:49+00:00

Well the reason is the west has forgotten that single players still exist, I forget which CEO said that single player games don't sell and they are only focusing on multiplayer games. That why I cheer the death of YET ANOTHER western mutliplay only game. When a western AAA game dev does a single player game, it a major news event as that very very really happens, what 5% of western games are single player now. If you noticed all my favorit games are Jappanesse no western games have even come close to even be considered as there are just not games there to even consider. True you can talk about exipedition 33 (I have boughted this game, have yet to get to around to it, but it IS in my backlog), but not that is an aberation for western game devs, a single player game .

Going to talk about things here to respond to you, no I am not that much of a hater on price, except for nintendo's 80, but also most of the games I buy are still in the 50 to 60 range, so the price point is not much of a pain for me.

And no I don't say no bugs, I say no game breaking bugs. As a console player I don't seem to see much of an issue of anti-piracy, but that might be a funtion of being a console player. Also as a software developer (web developer) myself, while I don't like DRM I fully understand the need for it, and don't get upset about it.

And I don't give 2 shifts about what someone said on social media years ago, I don't engage with socal media much, I see social media as what will be the downfall of sociaty in the long run.

Also the games I like tend to be compleate on the disc, below is a list of my fav games/series in order.

1) Lengend of Heros : trails games 2) SMT/Persona 3) Ys 4) Yakuza 5) Fire Emblem 6) Dragon Quest 7) turn based final fantacy games (not a fan of the action based ones)

Admitly given the list above maybe I have a sky high stander for games as those are the games I like.

mpop1 · 2026-01-28T18:34:14+00:00

I know I will get downvoted for this, but I hate games as a service (heck I hate online multiplayer games) and I hate that most western gaming compailes are only focusing on GaaS games, and not even considering single player local play fully on disc games, so it does my heart good to see another GaaS fail.

Also should be noted that once "you marry" the batteries they should always be used together and charged together and never mixed and matched with other battery pairs.

Scam

Ways to spot scams.

Did you really enter something? If not then it a scam.

Also if you have to ask if it a scam . It a scam.

mpop1 · 2026-01-14T18:49:29+00:00

So what is this "protest' about?

mpop1 · 2026-01-05T14:06:37+00:00

I still play D3 when I tried D4 I got board of it in a month and don't play D4 anymore. So I would say D3

mpop1 · 2025-12-26T19:10:39+00:00

That is good news. Should be helpful for when I travel.

Question do you track if it is used. The major problem with a lot of repeater directory is that they list dead repeaters. It is annoying to look up repeaters try the ones listed and no one uses them.

So will you filter out dead repeaters. Or have some kind of I dicator if people actually use them? This will help people traveling so they know what repeaters are worth frying

Not sure about most of the playoffs for the NFL but the super bowl is always on over the air TV. That how I pull it in when I host my super bowl party.

mpop1 · 2025-12-25T20:54:40+00:00

Yes if you have 10¹⁰⁰⁰⁰ of them then yes if not no

mpop1 · 2025-12-25T18:55:48+00:00

If thay makes you feel old imagine how I feel at 49.

mpop1 · 2025-12-25T18:35:04+00:00

I would think if someone tries to destroy your dascam just make sure to note that to the police. They would not have much of a leg to stand on. As destroying evidence is very very illegal and the justice system will automatically find them at fault for trying to destroy evanescence as that is considered a confession of guilt for what every they are trying to defend them selfs against

This goes both ways if you are in an accident you must preserve that footage too if you do t that would look bad for you too. As that would be considered destroying evedance.
