Can anyone tell me of a Ham radio shop selling ARRL books or other repeater
maps and eventually 2M handhelds in the Burlington, VT area.
I have seen adds in 73 but shipping of $5 for a $6 book seems excessive.
Thanks

A lot of operators lived without RIT. Many of the 'boat anchors' didn't
have RIT. The most recent rig not to have it was, I guess, the Heath HW-
series.
After all, if ONE station has RIT, that's more than enough.

If he was in this country, and the FCC caught him, he would get in very
serious trouble. If we allow this sort of thing to thing to persist,
we'll have a service that will be unusable. How do we know this person
will stay straight, we don't.
