I was an over the road trucker till I physically couldn\'t do it any more. Then I
read some books, went to Indianapolis and got certified to be an addiction counselor. So the last 8 years of work were in rehab units in hospitals. Retired now.


Who did you drive for and when did you last do it?

Open Chat / What\'s Your Occupation?

I\'ll start:

I am an electrician by trade.  Currently unemployed after another layoff 6 weeks ago. :streichel:

If I don\'t find something by the end of October, I will probably be going back to truck driving OTR as I did last year for a period of time. Not what I\'d like to do, but not a lot of work around here right now.

:band: (An the band played on.)

I\'ve started not logging out when I\'ve left the forum.  That seems to help.

Open Chat / Callsigns
« on: August 19, 2008, 09:28:59 PM »
So far:  5 haven\'t changed their callsign and 1 has

Guess I\'ll decide later.:th_Smile-KnockKnock   My wife thinks I should keep it.  I\'ll start a General Class soon at my local Ham club.

Open Chat / Callsigns

I know several hams in my locals club that I believe have kept their original callsign.  I know what I would like to change it to, but I am leaning on keeping the one I have since I have had it so long.

Open Chat / Callsigns
« on: August 16, 2008, 03:33:52 PM »
I am planning on upgrading to General Class by the end of the year. I have held my current callsign since I was originally licensed in 1995. I would like to change my callsign either now or when I upgrade.

I was wondering how many of you have kept their/your original callsign even when you have upgraded.

Was a new callsign automatically assigned?  
Did you go through the vanity callsign program?

It\'s not that I hate my callsign, it is dear to me. I\'m just now getting back into ham radio after a long lapse and have set a goal to upgrade.  I thought a change in my callsign would therefore also be appropriate.

Ham Radio Chit Chat / My Shack
« on: July 24, 2008, 09:58:07 PM »
I\'m jealous, somewhat, of all the nice shack setups.  I don\'t have that much room for such setups.  Anyone recommend or have ideas for setups in small areas?  I currently live in a duplex and don\'t want to have  any interference with my neighbors.  Although if it effects the stereo they like to play loud all day long, I wouldn\'t mind.

Having trouble staying logged in.  While posting I can preview it logs me off. If I hit preview I can\'t go back to my post page. If I visit a link it logs me off.

Any help would be appreciated.

Other related issues / Too many things loading on startup
« on: July 18, 2008, 04:56:50 AM »
Quote from: crazy;15255
How can I change how many programs load on start up?  I know how to go to ms-config and make changes, but then I have to use selective startup.
Surely there is a simple way to select what I wish to load.  If anyone can give me some detailed help, I sure would appreciate it.

Thanks!  crazy


Got this from my computer. Hope it helps.

To specify the default operating system for startup
Open System in Control Panel.
On the Advanced tab, under Startup and Recovery, click Settings.
Under System startup, in the Default operating system list, click the operating system you want to start when you turn on or restart your computer.
Select the Display list of operating systems for check box, and then type the number of seconds you want the list displayed before the default operating system starts automatically.
 Notes

To open System, click Start, click Control Panel, click Performance and Maintenance, and then click System.
To manually edit the boot options file, click Edit. Microsoft strongly recommends that you do not modify the boot options file (boot.ini). Doing so may render your computer unusable.
