It's good practice to have an amateur radio account separate from your other social media accounts. It's better practice to not mention the others on any of them.

Non-pros big mad.

[Cameron Jourdan @Cam_Jourdan]

Rory McIlroy talked all week about how many times he came to Augusta National to prepare in recent weeks. I asked whether this was the most prepared he felt in a major.

"I joked last week and going into this week that this place feels like my home course. I haven't played anywhere else in the last two or three weeks really. I felt prepared in that way. I felt prepared that wherever I hit it on the golf course, I sort of know what to do. I know where to miss. I'm pretty comfortable with all the shots around the greens.

"I've talked to Jack Nicklaus over the years how he prepared for majors, and he would go the week before, and he would simulate a tournament. He'd play one ball for four days, shoot scores. So then when he got to the tournament, it was sort of -- it felt second nature to him.

"I did a little bit of that leading up to here, and I think that's certainly a good way to prepare going into the next majors."

Marry a girl who says things like:

“I’m proud of you.”

“I had fun tonight.”

“I appreciate you.”

“A 100-foot tower for your antennas seems completely reasonable.”

@WWLTV Need a total left lane restriction on vehicles with over 3 axles, commercial and school buses, vehicles hauling trailers or any other vehicle greater than 20ft in length. They probably account for the bulk of left lane congestion.

I wonder how many people thumbing their noses at FT8 are using FLDigi and other software to send perfect 35wpm+ code during this CQ WW contest.

[Corey @W5MMC]

@Kd9Njj He's right though and your analogy isn't appropriate.

There's a reason we need a license to operate on our bands and people need to be dispelled of the notion they can just wait to transmit during an emergency and not learn how to safely operate beforehand

[Corey @W5MMC]

@devinbartolotta How about seek shelter?

[Corey @W5MMC]

@commsonawire Idk. Purpose for the nets is to check the repeater and your equipment. Calling in, verifying you can hear and can be heard is participating. For nets with 30+ people checking in that would drag out the net time longer than it needs to be.

@Kd9Njj Man that's a nice trailer
