The hams are on the radio fighting again.

"You're a doped up, fucked up hood rat"

"Hood-rat-hood-rat, can't you see. You're ... uh ... about to go pee."

@MLE_online lmao what repeater is this, I'm hoping there's a broadcastify feed or something

MLE_online,
@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@vxo if they start up again this morning before I go to set build, I'll get the frequency for you. I don't know the callsign of the repeater. I'm not sure they've ever said it while I was listening

vxo,
@vxo@digipres.club avatar

@MLE_online the repeater ID might only be beeped out in Morse. Not all of them have Creepy Robot Voice or whatev

MLE_online,
@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@vxo it might be. I dont know morse, so I won't be able to help with that

@vxo@digipres.club avatar

@MLE_online the last time I messed with setting up a repeater controller, I used this cute thing that runs on a Raspberry Pi and uses a hat for audio i/o and gpio to watch for incoming carrier from the receiver carrier operated relay (COR) pin, key the transmitter up, and, well, pass audio. It could link your repeater to Allstarlink or other VoIP networks for extension over the internet, but, uh, sillier, it could play back recorded audio files for the ID...

vxo,
@vxo@digipres.club avatar

@MLE_online so a certain repeater up in the foothills of the Cascades might or might not have my voice on it saying the callsign and then "Powered by Tri-Color Foaming Wax."

vxo,
@vxo@digipres.club avatar

@MLE_online hmmm when I put up a Meshtastic router node on one of our towers I'll have to name it appropriately.

MLE_online,
@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@vxo They're at it on 445.040 right now, which is probably not helpful, but that's all I've got

vxo,
@vxo@digipres.club avatar

@MLE_online haha nice, there is a feed for it.
for anyone else who wants to admire the dumpster fire: https://www.broadcastify.com/listen/feed/25419

my gosh they are going at it indeed

MLE_online,
@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@vxo They are like this every day

vxo,
@vxo@digipres.club avatar

@MLE_online the utterly childlike quality of the insults that are being thrown is amazing

MLE_online,
@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@vxo 13 year olds curse and insult better than this

vxo,
@vxo@digipres.club avatar

@MLE_online yeah this sure is a type of conversation one can find in amateur radio

you know i've gotta say the ones i tend to wind up in are basically a big game of Infodumping With Friends and they get fun as hell lol

MLE_online,
@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@vxo I personally know only two people here who have ham licenses and neither of them is ever on the air, so I have no one to chat with

vxo,
@vxo@digipres.club avatar

@MLE_online If you do want to get licensed though, there are probably a lot of more proper people out there to talk to lol

You can probably find my sometimes half asleep and always silly self on the CARLA system too

@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@vxo If that page says the site for the system covering my area has been decommissioned, that means I can't listen to the system, right?

vxo,
@vxo@digipres.club avatar

@MLE_online The only one I remember being decommissioned was the Mt. Bradley site way up in the north end of the state, because that moved to being part of a different repeater system. I think the ones near you should be working. If not you can sneak in via Echolink, K6LNK-R

MLE_online,
@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@vxo Are people on it at a certain time of day? I didn't hear anything when I tuned to K6LNK a little while ago

MLE_online,
@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@vxo I have a license. I just don't have anyone to chat with

@MLE_online sick burn

MLE_online,
@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@misternineham honestly, it's the harshest one I've heard on the radio so far

@vieuxnez@mastodon.social avatar

@MLE_online

You’re not allowed to swear on ham. FCC! Get’em!

MLE_online,
@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@vieuxnez I don't think pee counts as swearing. That said, the guys on this repeater say much worse, like calling each other cocksuckers, and telling each other to fuck off

vieuxnez,
@vieuxnez@mastodon.social avatar

@MLE_online

I was referring to f’ed up hood rat but I’m not really sure what the transcript is

MLE_online,
@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@vieuxnez oh yea, i forgot about that one lol. Fucked up hood rat seems so mild compared to the other things they say, it slipped my mind

@MLE_online I used to think it'd be cool to have a HAM license.

MLE_online,
@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@swelljoe good thing you dont have a license, or his insult would apply to you
