OK, Here's Today's Craigslist Ad


http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv/sks/508641997.html

I think this ad will make me rich!

The phone number in the ad is the Better Business Bureau.

Re: OK, Here's Today's Craigslist Ad


You guys should post some craigslist ads. Delete your craigslist cookie before you go to CL. We should encourage all legitimate to post "Hack-Ads" so that we can help make Craigslist "Trunk Slammer Central"

This should be fun!

I'm not too keen about HF. Those guys are WAAAAY to serious and many are real stuck up. Especially towards "no-code" Techs. I don't have an HF rig. It's just the impression I get .
Do you ever go to the forums on QRZ.com? Read some of the threads in the "Talk & Opinions" forum. Wow!

I stay away from QRZ, too many old fudy-dudys there. In ham radio there are a lot of boring, tightassed geeks. Here in L.A. we enjoy the infamous 435 repeater.

Ham radio is very expensive, I don't really want to talk to old people about the weather, I'm kinda interested in the digital modes. I want to try out this D-Star thing this summer, we have a few D-Star repeaters here.

I have the best vanity call sign for an electrician: W6IRE

Don't get ripped off by high priced electricians with their fancy trucks that you pay for!
As I suspected, you damn electricians are driving around in "fancy trucks", that explains the high rates.
