funny i had said a year or so ago.. lets do a VFW on the air.. what was said... people acted like omg not another on the air crap thing.. not one word in here about this... how sad this hobby has gotten.. iam at the point i may sell and walk away .. its kind of worthless to have a radio that isnt used much anymore..
