Printed References
Computers are great, but for some things, there's nothing like paper... Here's a list of references that I have printed at my station:
- Page 1‒3 of my Radio Frequency List found on the Radio Programming page under the “Refs” section. On that page, I've got the repeaters that I used the most circled with some hand written notes.
- The radio “Reference Guides” for the three kinds of radios I have at my stations from Radio Programming page. These are single page print outs that show me how to setup a frequency, repeater offset, and tone in the VFO in case I need to work a repeater I don't have programmed. This is the kind of stuff that's important to know but really easy to forget
- Page 2‒3 of the Nets page using the PDF output command. I also hand wrote the channel numbers for quick cross reference.
- A paper copy of the Sunshine Coast Emergency Communications page filed in my emergency binder.
- I also have my Grid Square taped to my desk. A Grid square is a series alternating pairs of letters and digits like CN89. The more characters contained, the more precise the location, which is a good way of giving your location to any desired level of resolution and keep any level of privacy you like.
