Ciao, ieri ho ricevuto questo da un amico della East Malesia 9M6TMT ,
se non lo avete ancora letto............. enjoy it:
You know you are a Ham WHEN........
1. The only time you get up at 5:00am is for a contest or dx-spedition.
2. You know you can run all your home appliances on your equipment
back-up battery.
3. Someone in a Music shop asks you what bands you like and you answer
160 meters and 20 meters.
4. A bank clerk asks you to spell your name and you do so phonetically.
5. In a phone conversation , you wait for the “OVER” on the other side,
before speaking.
6. You hear a scraping sound when driving through multi-storey car parks.
7. A band opening is more important than a grand opening.
8. Sight-seeing on holiday amounts to looking at rooftops for antennas.
9. The radios in your car are worth more than your car.
10. When you walk out of the house you not only feel your pockets for your
keys and your wallet, but also your hip for your handheld.
11. Your child's schoolteacher calls you on the phone to ask why your child
identified countries on the world map as JA, ZL, VE, G, UA and XE.
12. If you refer to your house as "Ohm, sweet Ohm".
13. You're talking on the phone and end every sentence with "(callsign) this
is (callsign), over".
14. Your prime criterion for a new car is that it have zero ignition noise.(Ed.
And a gutter and somewhere to put at least one rig)
15. You and your partner hike to the top of a famous mountain, but rather
than enjoy the magnificent sunset and giving them a kiss, you fire up the
Hand Portable to see how many repeaters you can hit.
16. You realize that you've been studying code too long because you try
and find out who did it in 'Inspector Morse' by listening to the background
music.
17. You look at the Rocky Mountain Range and try to figure out how to get
an antenna mounted on the highest peak.
18. You look at the Severn Bridge and develop a plan to get it to resonate
on 160 meters……………………………………………….
Have a nice day..
