Jeff,
I have to disgree , I watch the show routinely and the shack is shown routinely
Not sure how much it helps the hobby but I am sure happy to see it
My kids grew up with a ton of gear surrounding them, I brought their friends into the shack with parents
Have worked AO-27 many times as a class presentation
My kids have no interest in the hobby
A matter of demographics unlike when we came up noone their age is on to talk to
And how many kids want to talk to grandparents (lol)
It is what it is

 

I'm sorry to ask this question again, but does Tim Allen have his license or not? Thanks!

 

He does his callsign is KK6OTD under name Tim Dick as his full name is Timothy Allen Dick.

 

Love watching the show and that John Amadeo actually replies to emails. I have KA0XTT and KF0XIE qsl cards. I hope they make Boyd a HAM, I think it would help inspire youth to get their licenses.

 

I do like the show. How did you get the two QSL cards? I also noticed a shack set up at his characters sporting goods store.

 

I sent my QSLs and SASEs in 1 larger envelope addressed to:
Mike & Mandy Baxter - KA0XTT & KF0XIE
4024 Radford Ave
Bungalow 17
Studio City, CA. 91604

 

Love that this (amateur radio) is being reintroduced into popular culture. This is such a fundamental technical skill that needs to be preserved for our future generations. Props to John Amodeo and Tim Allen for countering entertainment industry norms! Keep fighting the good fight!

Josh

 

They seemed like a nice group when I worked them a while back
glad to see amateur radio shown correctly in the media unlike past movies like "frequency"
