As for communications use, its fun because you DONT HAVE TO PAY A SERVICE to talk to people across the globe or your friends locally. You maintain your own equipment, you know what your service coverage is like. SO when your voip phone is down, your cell service is out. or the power goes down at your cell site. Im still chatting over the air on batteries, plugged into the wall or a generator. To the guy that has the baby monitor problem. your picking it up every time you plug some crap in the wall. Check your grounding on everything. Apparrently your electrical system is resonant on whatever band he is using. OOPS.

I've read the thread thus far and correct me if I'm wrong but I have no recourse due to FCC regulations and so we just have to live with this. Somethings wrong with that. I shouldn't have to spend my $$$ to accommodate his hobby. He's disturbing the peace not me and he should be held responsible for the harm he is causing the people around here. Anybody got a reasonable suggestion?

Voor de rest is het heel veel waar voor je geld. Vaak neem ik geen wereldontvanger mee mee! Broadcast, amateur, RNW, marifoon, alles in één handig pakje met zaklamp voor nood. Ideaal! Groeten, Gerard. Ja, jammer van die PMR, maar zonder CTCSS is het niet erg als-ie er wat naast staat.

Last night I was listening to the 160 meter band when it seemed like my 901 has a mind of its own. While the band selector is on 160 meter band it jumps up to 80 meters without the selector being touched.. Thanks again Hans jr... Hans, I have a new problem.
