We heard it from the people in the town.

Or they could go the simple route and rename it "Bleep, Bleep and Bleep".

Sounds like she made quite a splash.

I considered geology, but it seemed really hard.

Does this affect airplay of the Cher song?

I always chuckle at the packaging on FRS walkie-talkies. They'll charge more for radios with up to 38 -mile range and say in the fine print that it's the maximum tested distance under ideal conditions, meaning they basically test these things on a flat prairie. Actual urban range for FRS is under a...

Here's a site that maps available GMRS repeaters: https://mygmrs.com/map The FCC dropped the GMRS license fee from $70 to $35 in March. The license is good for 10 years and covers everyone in your immediate family. I'm considering applying for one. The advantage of increased transmit power and repea...

No matter the cost? Seems like you could have just bought a smart phone... The cost isn't a deterrent to me having a smartphone. I just don't need one. I'd never use it. Carrying one around, you may as well have "Middle Class" stamped right across your forehead. I get far more use from my C clamps ...

Not sure what the big deal is. I saw stuff like that in the WJIM days of channel 6.

Patio table umbrella crank, I've broken a few. Does that make me working class?

It just means you attend class at the old school.

Probably a license rights or copyright issue. They licensed the radio station, but not the jingles were were made by someone else. The license on the jingle package probably expired and SXM didn't want to pay the expense of renewing it. Seems they could have taken competing bids from other producti...

Makes for great party conversation:

What do you do?

I work for Fat Bastard.

Wow! Your boss is that bad?

I've noticed a resurgence of chatter on the long-abandoned Citizens Band in recent weeks. My Degen multi-band radio tunes the 26-27 MHz frequency range where CB lives, as well as my Radio Shack 40-channel hand-held transceiver. Both have picked up a lot of folks "talking skip" across states with pum...
