I have to admit that I too am a 'ham"ster - N2PFL.  A no code tech license
because if I try to learn code I will inevitably forget something that I
need to be a doctor !  I have gone to carrying a handheld with me as the
Cell system is absolutely worthless in an emergency - even if it's snowing
the cell system is clogged with crap.
