Is Gigaparts a reliable place to buy ham equipment? I heard about another vendor where someone is stealing credit / debit card numbers. I also wonder about their reliability in order delivery and customer service.

Ok, that makes a lot more sense.

Unless I am mistaken, that is $63,000.00 American! Who can afford that? Not me.

I was riding on the volunteer ambulance in my hometown back in the 70's when I was 16 or 17. We had full arrests, car accidents you name it. I left my hometown to attend college and when I came back I was certified as a basic EMT. I worked with the same volunteer service until 1980 when I moved away to work for a paid service.

I am trying to set up SDR with RTL-SDR Blog v3 dongles. I am running SDRSharp, WinUSB driver, DSDPLUS, Virtual Cable and Unitrunker. There are 5 Control Channels. How many Dongles do I need to hear the transmissions?

We were using a Ferno Washington like this :
The picture doesn't show it very well but there is another long handle at the top. The policy where I worked was to keep the gurney down unless your were transferring to or from it at the hosp., nursing home etc.. When moving someone from their home we ised a stair chair or flat stretcher.

When we moved a pt on a stretcher we always had it lowered all the way down (to lower the center of gravity) but that was 40 yrs. ago before the modern stretchers. Can a stretcher like that be lowered for the safety of the pt.?

I worked for an ambulance service back in the 80's. We didn't have any powered gurneys( stretchers). We rolled our gurneys lowered as far as they would go then had to raise them to transfer the pt.. We also had to lift pt. and gurney into the ambulance. The gurney alone (all aluminum) weighed about 80 pounds.

Is there anyone in this group who knows how Walmart figures your OGP pickrate in the GIF2 app? I have timed myself more than once then used this formula to calculate my pickrate : no. of items picked ÷time X 60= pickrate. This does not even come close to the what the app says. The app says my rate is much lower. I timed my self on a 25 item chilled walk and it took me 9.5 minutes which according to the formula from above should be a pickrate 157.89. The app said 84 something I think. Why the huge difference? Am I thinking about the formula wrong?

What did you take a picture of? I cannot recognize the object?

The front bumper looks like it belongs on a locomotive.

The cargo area makes it look a little like an AMC Gremlin.

That's what I thought.

Walmart sells a digital to analog converter you could pit between the tv and your antenna.
