They are putting up barbed wire in DC. Drones in capital sky. The FBI is monitoring all social media......and that is just what we know.
Yes, let's bring unity back to our country while we (the political elite) build an armed barrier between the new rulers of this land and its subjects. It's been part of their plan and they know we will not be fooled any longer.

No one had a problem with all the baofengs I saw this summer...,.

What would be the “Q” code that the FBI would send out to the hams?This is absurd.

ARRLBut on a serious note; I am studying for a technician class license. What club or entity should I contact for testing?
