Election fraud is a very real problem up here too. There are still rumours that our current Prime Minister cheated his way into office (with some help from the Hague) and no one has any doubts that he will do the same in the next election this October. Please pray for this country--we don't have term limits for our Prime Ministers, and any more of our current leadership will eaither turn this country Muslim or destroy it.

I was educated in Canada in the 1990s and early 2000s (when the Ozone layer was still what was going to destroy the world, believe it or not). We learned about the world wars in depth--but not until high school. I mean, that history is tough for adults. How do you think nine-year-olds would handle watching people being blown to bits, or seeing the skeletal photos of the concentration camp surviviors? ---The only thing we didn't learn about was the history of Muslims and Nazis, and how the two were working together. I didn't learn that until a month ago. I have no idea why this was never taught to us.

i stole a spool of 8 gauge wire and used some tent poles as insulators. It didn’t look pretty but we could actually use the HF radios while driving!

Definitely, if I remember correctly all of our HF truck radios were 400 watts with a 32’ whip.

Properly tuned antenna is everything you can run 3000 watts and if that antenna is not tuned right you might as well piss into the wind
Bill Walters

100 watts is common wattage for most HF radio's my TenTec and my Kenwood puts out 100 watts well my Kenwood does 150 if the antenna is tuned right
