Also please, stay away from any power line hubs, they put out so much hash onto ham bands (& other bands), that they are illegal in some states...

BBPL is failing, in my view not soon enough...............

I'm guessing you have a license too? BBPL is failing, in many areas. Unfortunately not fast enough. And in some areas, they've gone a different direction then BBPL and started using Smart Meters which create hash as well. Oh well, we'll just have to keep bitching.

fwiw: they pulled my smart meter. I had 3. "That never worked right"....

Yep, de k6jox. Not operating much anymore due to rotator failure (ant. down), & my loss of finger usage which makes operating very difficult. Especially in my favorite mode, cw/ssb contesting. Typing is getting difficult too....(sigh)

I have hopes of getting back on someday; just going to need a lot of help which I currently don't have as the local club (Hayward Radio Club=k6eag) recently virtually folded. Only a few members left & they can't afford the insurance...shame.

For what it is worth, I would be happy to rig you up a foot switch for a SSB mic key. I'd be more then happy to help get a fellow ham back on the air. Yea, even if I have to climb a tower and install a new rotor. I probably have a few tech levels that would be interested in coming to aid on that too.

The original PS3 does have built in wifi, its not the newest of course but it works pretty well, I have one and speeds are decent with cable modem.

Thank you for the kind offer. Got some hams from the Northern CA Contest Club coming this morning to look at the rotator. I don't expect much to happen except a final troubleshooting of the existing bad rotor. But least I finally got someone over here to look at it....yahoo!

Good to hear. Let me know if you do need assistance. Seriously.
