"You're not on far, Juan Pablo Montoya!!!"
How Long is a Nanosecond?
Shorter than you might think... I love when people do something so obvious I would never think of it. Like demonstrating the length of a nanosecond in terms of distance instead of time.
Many thanks to Owen (KF5CZO) (via AmateurRadio.com) for posting the video and notes. Looks like he and I share a like for a simple Blogger template, too.
Editing on 2015-01-30 to specifically mention Grace Hopper, so this will show up in my searches for posts about her.

Baofeng UV-3R: Triple Watch
Set up a triple watch by using the dual watch feature along with the priority channel:
"Andy, I tried not disable the DW and turn PRI ON. It works. It scan two channels on top and one channel on the bottom line. WOW, now I can monitor three channels at the same time."
Bookstore Lists
25 Things I Learned from Opening a Bookstore and the 20 Most Beautiful Bookstores in the World.
I actually stopped by Barnes and Noble the other day with my daughter. We "had" to pick up another Elephant and Piggie book (Should I Share My Ice Cream?). I didn't really get to browse, but it did remind me how much I like bookstores. I don't do many impulse buys, but books are what tempt me the most. The fact that I have a dozen books at the house already in the queue kept me from picking up anymore.
