* Cheri703 is participating in an ARES net on her ham radio01:05
canthus13You're licensed? Cool...01:09
* canthus13 thought about a ham license, never bothered.01:09
Cheri703yep, have my technician license, contemplating a general, but haven't done it yet. This year is my 10 year mark of being licensed01:10
canthus13Nice.  I'd love to get just a basic license...01:10
Cheri703that'd be the technician, lets you talk on the shorter distance bands, not the further reaching ones01:11
Cheri703more of the "HT" ones, use the hand-held radios01:11
Cheri703ht=handy talky01:11
canthus13It also allows me to run a GSM base station..01:11
canthus13which is fun for screwing with iPhones.01:12
Cheri703heh01:12
canthus13Is morse code still required?01:13
Cheri703nope, for no levels...technician never needed it, but for a few years now, it's not needed01:14
canthus13Nice.01:15
canthus13that's what stopped me initially.01:15
Cheri703yeah, that's why I didn't get my general back then01:15
canthus13Basically, all you need is to memorize the answeres to the questions in the pool, eh?01:16
Cheri703yep, basically01:18

Unit193paultag: not trying to sound bad, but I don't see much of a point... (why do I think I'm going to be grilled for that?)05:26
paultagUnit193: it's how you contribute to Ubuntu05:28
paultagUnit193: so by not having an LP, you're showing that you don't want to give back ( by reporting bugs &c )05:28
paultagUnit193: so we track loco members on LP, because LoCo members usually do work to help Ubuntu05:28
paultagUnit193: wiki editing is part of that05:28
Unit193paultag: I can't really do all that much... If I can, I help people on here (did so once)05:30
Unit193so not much to track...05:31
