Hey everyone, just got back into the hobby. I'm also a ham operator. Retired Army and looking for stuff to keep me busy. I just bought a used Cobra 29 NWST for $26 and after a few repairs here and there and a $4 antenna from the thrift store I'm talking again. Not much activity in my area and I'm running barefoot with my antenna low so I don't think I'll be making a lot of contacts, but we will see what happens as I progress. I don't yet have a handle, and never been much for them. Guess that will come later too.
