Finally had to replace my poor old Uniden Grant, it took a severe beating
for a number of years.
Just bought a Galaxy 99V. Can't figure out how to get to 27 Mhz,
(everything on the frequency counter is 28 Mhz.) Is it possible to get it
down to 27 Mhz, or should I box it up and take it back?
Thanks in advance.
If it's worth anything to you (and it should be), that radio is illegal
to use on CB frequencies. Box it up and take it back.
If you dig Galaxy's, pick up a DX959. You should be able to score on for
180 bucks, and it is a legal radio (type accepted) for use on CB. It
works every bit as good as a 99V.
I'm not going to preach to you about legal/vs illegal stuff. Just know
that you can score a nice radio, and be legal at the same time. Have Fun!

The old Grant had some "work" done to it and I really liked it. I bought
the 99V looking for a "big radio" sound..you know...slight reverb and deep
bass sound. Don't really care for "roger-beeps" and all that stuff, just
wanted a "big radio."
> I'm not going to preach to you about legal/vs illegal stuff.
Thanks. I tend to run "slightly" more wattage than I should, but almost
always practice proper etiquette. Don't want to be *too* illegal in my
operation, though.
Thanks for the quick response.

I tried taking the easy way out and returning the 99V to the dealer (a
Williams truckstop) and exchange it for a regular ole CB. They will not
take it back, they do exchanges only and wanted me to get a CB and an
additional $200.00 in store merchandise. Gonna try getting Visa to stop
payment, but if I can't I guess I'll try to do the mod.
Thanks again for all the info, folks.

Cool! I'm gonna make the mod this weekend and try it out next week. Wanted
to do it sooner but ran 3000 miles last week thru tropical storm
"Whats-her-name." :-(
Now if I can just get somebody to send me that link for the mod again. I
had my OE set to delete messages after 5 days, but that was before I went
back to long-haulin'.

"Got RF?"
> i.e. "laws be damned"?
I've also run more wattage than is legally allowed for a number of years. I
don't however, violate CB etiquette, use profanity, intentionally key on
others unless they are attempting to key over my communications, etc.
Until *very* recently, I used the CB primarily to provide information and
respond to requests for assistance on Channel 9. Nothing is more
infuriating than attempting to give somebody directions and then to be keyed
on by some idiot chanting the same thing over, and over, and over, and over,
and over..... With a flip of a switch, I could get the travelling
directions to the person requesting them. One thing that they taught us in
the police academy was that there is a difference between the "letter of the
law" and the "spirit of the law." When the laws limiting CB to low wattage
were enacted, a license was required to operate a CB and radio traffic was
minimal compared to now. Today, it is almost impossible to communicate on a
CB in a major metropolitan area (read suburban Chicago) without a little
extra wattage and modulation. As I previously stated, as long as proper
radio etiquitte is adhered to, I don't have a problem with it.
Problem is, everyone thinks everone else is 'keying' over them, and is
using linears 100% of the time. The need to "talk over" a million
other people using illegal linears is poor justification for the use
of an illegal linear.

And he's probably using an amp because he thinks he needs it to "get
over" interference.

I agree with the spirit of the law. And the spirit of the law in
regard to CB is to avoid intentional interference and allow everyone a
chance to communicate. That was why power limits were set. Put everone
on an equal footing. No one station with "more watts" than any other.

It's become impossible to communicate BECAUSE a majority of people are
running extra wattage and modulation. Surely you can see that the
wattage limit was enacted to allow everyone an equal chance to
communicate. The spirit of the law is *equal access to communications
for all*. If the FCC let everyone decide their own wattage -- they'd
let only SOME people (the ones with extra power) communicate -- and
not others (the ones with low power).
As I previously stated, as long as proper
> radio etiquitte is adhered to, I don't have a problem with it.
Proper radio etiquette is about observing limits too. What if the 40
legal channels became so polluted by high power and so unusable that
the majority of CB'ers moved to unauthorized bands? Would you follow?
-A
> BECAUSE a majority of people are

If you are correct, then it would seem that in a democratic country, extra
wattage would become legal. If you are right, fat chance of changing it. So
why strain yourself over it?.

I think when somebody is chanting "Ba-ba-booyey" over and over and over, the
*need* to be keyed on. I don't interfere with people conversing, but when I
am giving someone directions and they key over me in the middle of my
exchange of information, then IMHO, I am justified in adding some "fire to
my wire."
> Are you a police officer?
Yes. And I also drive a truck. And I've been known to perform manual labor
on occassion.

And there were protocols that every licensed CBer knew and that "most"
practiced. Those protocols are out the window now, and CB is a free for
all. Your only chance to communicate effectively is to "pump it up."
> It's become impossible to communicate BECAUSE a majority of people are

No...it is impossible to communicate because you have too many people trying
to talk at the same time.

The FCC did that when they dropped the licensing requirement and *anybody*
with 50 bucks was able to buy a CB and dominate the airways.
> Proper radio etiquette is about observing limits too.
We have differing opinions of what comprises "proper radio etiquette" on a
CB.
What if the 40
> legal channels became so polluted by high power and so unusable that
> the majority of CB'ers moved to unauthorized bands? Would you follow?
Ummmm......probably not, but then I don't anticipate that happening. What
if the FCC dropped licensing requirements for "hams" and all the CBers
bought export radios? Would you leave?
Who said the protocols were "out the window"? CB does not require
individual station licenses anymore, but the FCC grants operating
privileges with the understanding that you agree to operate in
accordance with the rules. And the rules still exist.
Gosh Lenny, I think you're misinformed, or just yanking our chains. I
could be wrong. Let's let your boss decide. Try this:
1. Print out the The current Code of Federal Regulations Title 47,
Volume 5, Parts 80 to End. (You can find it on the official USG site,
or Frank has a copy of it posted here:
http://www.cet.com/~yeti/47cfr95_Subpart-D.txt)
2. Bring it to your commanding officer or superior. Tell him this is
current US Code and still in force. Show him this relevant section:
Sec. 95.411 (CB Rule 11) May I use power amplifiers?
(a) You may not attach the following items (power amplifiers) to
your certificated CB transmitter in any way:
(1) External radio frequency (RF) power amplifiers (sometimes
called
linears or linear amplifiers); or
(2) Any other devices which, when used with a radio transmitter as
a
signal source, are capable of amplifying the signal.
(b) There are no exceptions to this rule and use of a power
amplifier voids your authority to operate the station.
(c) The FCC will presume you have used a linear or other external
RF
power amplifier if--
[[Page 537]]
(1) It is in your possession or on your premises; and
(2) There is other evidence that you have operated your CB station
with more power than allowed by CB Rule 10, Sec. 95.410.
(d) Paragraph (c) of this section does not apply if you hold a
license in another radio service which allows you to operate an
external
RF power amplifier.
3. Next, point out this section of Code to him:
Sec. 95.421 (CB Rule 21) What are the penalties for violating these
rules?
(a) If the FCC finds that you have willfully or repeatedly
violated
the Communications Act or the FCC Rules, you may have to pay as much
as $10,000 for each violation, up to a total of $75,000. (See section
503(b) of the Communications Act.)
(b) If the FCC finds that you have violated any section of the
Communications Act or the FCC Rules, you may be ordered to stop
whatever action caused the violation. (See section 312(b) of the
Communications
Act.)
(c) If a Federal court finds that you have willfully and knowingly
violated any FCC Rule, you may be fined up to $500 for each day you
committed the violation. (See section 502 of the Communications Act.)
(d) If a Federal court finds that you have willfully and knowingly
violated any provision of the Communications Act, you may be fined up
to
$10,000 or you may be imprisoned for one year, or both. (See section
501
of the Communications Act.)
4. Tell him that the FCC enforcement division is still actively
prosecuting CB rule violations. Check out www.rainreport.com/ for
documentation of some recent busts.
5. Ask your boss, given all of the above, if he feels that you as a
peace offiicer should be actively violating the Code of Federal
Regulations Title 47, CB rules, and also going onto Internet
newsgroups and advising citizens to do the same.
-Aaron-
Stover says linears are required and CB is a free for all. I disagree, period.

Hmmm....for starters,,,Dave Hall claimed it's a cesspoole that reflects

occcasions, going as far as laughingly saying it's useless for

cbers off. Ya'll even ask about our private undergarment accessories.
>CB does not require individual station licenses anymore, but the FCC

And they are no longer enforced on cb as long as one does not create a
nuisance, problem, safety issue or interference.
>Gosh Lenny, I think you're misinformed, <<
That's pretty funny too, since you don't think too often...you usually
just post and we laugh later.

Hi Twist. No threat, veiled or otherwise. But it does seem a tad
irresponsible for a sworn police officer to gleefully
(..."YEEE-HAWWW!"...) announce that he is operating a prohibited
transceiver illegally on the Citizens Band...proclaim that illegal
power amplifiers are necessary to communicate...and announce that CB
is no longer regulated and is a "free for all". People who are trying
to decide whether or not to operate within the law are likely reading
this newsgroup. IMO, Mr. Stover has a responsibility to see that any
information he posts here is accurate and reflects actual -not

Well, amps do help,,especially during the day when all the skip is

Then they can see that the feds don't give a rats azz about low power
freebanding above the legal 40 but below 10 meter (especially 555) as
long as there are no safety, interference, etc., legitimate complaints.
Hell, even running amps (to a point) seems relevantly harmless unless
you're in a very populated area, otherwise the feds would make it a
priority..
>IMO, Mr. Stover has a responsibility to see that any information he

-Aaron-<<
I can appreciate your position while disagreeing at the same time
without prejudice. I believe it was merely an interpretation,,,,one that
is somewhat accurate of the current state of cb. Many of us know from
experience what to expect from the FCC, IE: which behavior causes
problems and what type action the feds will take. Most cbers know that
the heavy hand of enforcement by the FCC is not what certain types on
this board would like it to be, despite the false and oft reiterated
claims to the contrary.

That's your opinion and you're entitled to it. Supporting illegal
operation has some built-in disadvantages though. It labels you as
irresponsible and unlawful. These are not traits that people in

If they looked closer they'd see that several amateurs have indeed
been busted for "freebanding" and running illegal power on the legal
40 in the last year (case files available in the FCC enforcement
logs). Truck stops are being cited for selling non-type-accepted CB
gear. eBay auctions for illegal CB amps continue to be stopped.
Operating in open defiance of FCC rules whether you're a ham or not
doesn't make sense, except perhaps to antisocials and misfits.

With cutbacks in funding, it's a given that the FCC can't make
enforcement in ANY radio service a "priority". They can't be
everywhere at once. However that doesn't automatically signal that the
entire spectrum is "a free for all".

But his interpretation is not accurate as to the current state of
Federal Regulations governing CB. It is in fact, harmfully erroneous.
For example, there have been no statements issued by the FCC to the
effect that the old RF power rules may be ignored due to increasing
use of the band. If anything, CB sales have declined since the 1970's
boom. Finally, current Title 47 CFR states that external CB amplifiers
are prohibited - and there are no exceptions to this rule, (not even
for police, fire, and public service).

As I said before, the FCC can't be everywhere at once. No one is
disputing that you'll probably be able to commit outrageous rule
violations and get away with it. But you have to wonder what kind of
person enjoys the fact that he can "get away with" breaking rules and
federal laws that have been enacted for the good of all. I certainly
wouldn't want this kind of person to be a police officer in my town.

experience what to expect from the FCC, IE: which behavior causes

the heavy hand of enforcement by the FCC is not what certain types on

Actually, this is the first time I have entertained the thought of

If hams are getting popped for tainting 11 meters, then CB'ers should
get popped for trespassing on 10. One good turn deserves another.

Let me get this right: "doing what your told" (i.e. being a good

Wrong, I was making a comparative assumption. Read carefully:
IF
CB + no enforcement = free for all.
THEN
Other Parts Of Spectrum + no enforcement = free for all.
Of course my comparitive assumption merely serves to illustrate the
ludicrousness of the initial assumption. Lack of FCC enforcement in
ANY portion of the spectrum does NOT signal that portion of the
spectrum is a "free for all".

There's no interpretation on my part. I don't need to interpret. I can
quote the actual law. And the actual law contradicts what Mr. Stover
says. External amplifiers ARE illegal on CB. FCC rules ARE still
enforced. Don't take my word for it. Read US CFR Title 47.

I don't have the annual sales figures of CB equipment handy. Neither
do you. But I'm willing to bet there is quite a difference in CB sales
between 1976 (the year "Convoy" came out) and this year. Which means
there are less CB'ers on the air now that there were then.

Twist, we are not talking about "true life and death emergency". We
are talking about Lennie Stover telling a motorist which exit to take
to find the gas station. And he doesn't require a Skullcracka or an
illegal Galaxy DX99V to do it with.

Don't take my word for it, listen in on 555 and send ol' Riley all the

>It is in fact, harmfully erroneous. For example, there have been no

Not true and I won't try to argue that with you. There are several

meter skip cycle. Maybe not in as short as time, but nonetheless.

Maybe. Now if you would have said a year or two ago, I may be willing to
take that bet. The skip cycle and the 70s nostalgia kick and the swell
of population since 76 may have made the difference. In any event, it's
speculative on both parts.

Nah, there are more. There are way more truckers and they all have cbs.

During the day, depending on how far away he is, he may.
Many of us know from
experience what to expect from the FCC, IE: which behavior causes
problems and what type action the feds will take. Most cbers know that
the heavy hand of enforcement by the FCC is not what certain types on
this board would like it to be, despite the false and oft reiterated
claims to the contrary.
>As I said before, the FCC can't be everywhere at once. No one is
disputing that you'll probably be able to commit outrageous rule

No one here cries, bitches or moans except (of course) you and your

Nor do they share your skewered view that freebanding lowpower DXing
cbers are criminals. If they did, you just made the case that the

the opposite.

Actually, this is the first time I have entertained the thought of

is such a mundane and trivial thing I. I have better things to do than
dwellon my psyche.
I would question the morality of someone who has named a troubled posse

No, there are not FCC agents on every street corner. Yes, in many
cases you'll be able to "get away" with violating CB rules and not get
caught. But when you foster the idea that people should not obey
federal regulations concerning CB because they are obsolete and
outdated -- that's misinformation, plain and simple.
This thread started with my response to Lennie' Stover's post . I

Prove it, Aanal Aaron. You can't. It has become difficult (but not
"impossible") to communicate on CB simply because of the sheer numbers
of operators trying to use the "legal 40".
Surely you can see that the

Precisely WHERE did he say that? I don't find that statement in any of

A better question would be what other kinds of ship-to-shore
communications are legal. An even better question would be if he
actually uses the radio. But you should probably ask him that
question, since I have no idea if he even uses it (he didn't say one

Depends on what you like. If you are into tubes I have that
Hallicrafter's CB-3A, modified with crystal sockets on the front
panel. For test equipment I still have my Hickok 121 cardmatic, but
shipping might be a bit too expensive. On the bench there are a couple
low-end sig-gens and an older single-trace O-scope. I also have piles
of old CB radios, take your pick. For serious DXing I have an Ameco
PT-2 preamplifier (manual is on the web). In consumer electronics, I
just picked up a nice Technics SA-GX670 surround-sound receiver (110
watts x 2 or 80 watts x 4), and I still have that portable JVC
AM/FM/PB/TV. Or maybe you are into antique broadcast radios -- I would
have to compile a list for all of those. Or maybe you would like
something educational...
I really don't think I have anything you would be interested in,
Timmy. Oh...wait! Silly me, I almost forgot you like illegal stuff.
Well, I still have that FM modulator, crystal controlled to 105.3 MHz.
Intersted in pirate TV? I also have a TV modulator for Ch. 11. How
about that?
yeah i like tubes, mostly 572b's and up

The 807 and 572 (beam power tubes) are just a tiny part of the big

things besides RF amplifiers. Since "CB knowledge" begins and ends
with RF amplifiers, you'll always get a rather limited view of the
universe in rec.radio.cb. It's like knowing only the first verse of a
song. For example, you'll never hear of the famous 12AX7, the
ubiquitous 6AQ5, or the workhorse 6V6 found in audio and oscillator
stages of stuff from superhet receivers to mike preamps and CW rigs;
or rectifiers like the 5Z3 and 5R4, and voltage regulators like the
OA2 and OB2. So if you want more than just part of the picture, seek
higher ground, go on eBay and grab a 1960's copy of the ARRL Radio
Amateurs Handbook to get a snapshot of the classic tubes applied to
practical circuits, or poke around on sites like

Hardly. If you check a few sources like I have you will find the
Chinese 572B's going for an average of around $40 each, while you can
still find NOS 811A's and 812A's for less than $10 a pop. The
disparity is because of the popularity of 572B's with audiophiles.
Same deal with the 300B's. The 807's are almost literally a dime a
dozen, and in it's different configurations has been a very popular RF
tube over the years, much more popular than the 572B.
> and theres no shortage of good amps that run them. the
>tubes he mentions might be good for a homebrewer but not for ready buying
I'm not sure what you mean by that, but like I said, there has been
plenty of RF equipment manufactured that uses the 807 and the 812.
FYI, the 812 is the RF variation of the 811, another tube popular with
audiophiles.

You asked for an example of you encouraging someone to break the
rules. So now it doesn't count because it was a "fellow freebander"?
OMG. LOL. Twist, you are a precious commodity, you make me laugh so
hard.
>That pulled yahoo addy has you sore, eh?
If wishes could come true, huh, Twist? I've never been pulled. That's
because I've never posted anything to be pulled for. Maybe you're
thinking of "Special Delivery Jones". Two of his google accounts were
pulled for threats.
>And it's the "Twisted Zone", not "Twistedhed".
More like the "Twilight Zone". But I'm done visiting now. Buh bye.

Just following you around and making sure you don't mislead people. I
note YOU abandoned the other thread, coward.
Where's your PROOF?? Har de har.
So you're answering for Aanal Aaron aagain, Frankie? Why don't you let
him answer for himself?
And as you know quite well, Aanal Aaron won't aanswer aany questions
aat aall. So that's a cop out as usual, Frankie.
No need. If he expects people to believe him, it's up to him to prove
he's correct.

No need. Can you prove me wrong? I doubt it. You couldn't prove your
way out of a wet paper bag, Georgie-girl.

Hi Jamey, My name is Woody Parr and I'm up the road in Cornelia. I'm
afraid that I'm indirectly responsible for this troll who is
badmouthing you at alt.religion.urantiabook. You see he was only there
in the first place to attack me.
This idiot is Steven J. Rogovich, 1612 Lake Christopher dr. Virginia
Beach, Va. 23464 He followed me to the UB usenet page from
alt.radio.pirate He and I (were) both formerly loosely associated
with each other in the shortwave pirate radio listening hobby. I USED
to be a shortwave pirate but my station has been permanently retired
for more than 2 years now. Stevie is still a pirate and is the
operator of the station Radio Free Speech. He is also the moderator of
a message board at the Free Radio Network < www.frn.net > and goes by
the handle of Pat Murphy there. I had a falling out with the people at
the FRN a couple of years ago as they became corrupt and were doing so
inappropriate things. I dared to open my mouth and openly complain
about there stupid activities which since they havn't yet ceased to
follow me around the internet anywhere they can and attack me.
Steve is also on the usenet trolling people under the name of Richard
Cranium (richar...@yahoo.com) He's far too much of a coward to
debate anyone using his real name.

Twisthead is just another illegal 'freebander', not even worthy to
be called a cber.
He can and does. But it seems that YOU can't read his replies -- case
in point: Where, in any post, did he say that "all 10 meter radios are
illegal"? And if you troll him because you think he is anti-CB, then
why did you totally ignore "Bob" that was CLEARLY anti-CB? Still don't
have answers for those simple questions, Clyde? I didn't think so.
BTW, who am I this week, Clyde?
You won't answer any of MY questions so quit whining.
>being hooked up implies usage,
Yes it does. I have my Swan hooked up and I use it daily. It's an
excellent receiver. But I don't transmit with it -- yet.
> hell voobie wont even say where he lives much
>less what water he's near
Try this: "Hey Voob, do you live near a navigable waterway?" Or this:
"Hey Voob, do you own a boat?" Of course it's just easier to jump to
the conclusion that he operates the radio illegally, isn't it? I
suppose when you are stoned all the time you need to keep things
simple and not clutter your brain with logic and reason...

Then I'll ask you: Where? Show me a quote. Because I haven't seen any
post by him that expresses OR implies anything of the sort. So if he
really did and I missed that post, please quote it.

Gosh Tim, "what Aaron Voobner said" weighs heavily on your mind (or
what's left of it) lately, eh? OK, pay attention, because here it is
from the horse's mouth. For the record, I don't think all 10 meter
radios are illegal and certainly have never said or implied this.
Without a doubt, the ones on the FCC hit list are illegal to import
(even by licensed hams), and they can't legally be used on CB (by hams
or CBers). Everyone knows that licensed amateurs can use non-type
accepted gear as long as it is used legally on ham bands. Everyone
also knows that hams are not the target market for phony "10 meter"
roger-beep, echo-miked, rebel flagged radios. Sleazy manufacturers
have hijacked the phrase "10 meter radio" in order to attempt to
sidestep the CB type-acceptance regulations and get these rigs into
the hands of freeloaders like you. So your sudden interest in the
technicalities of legal 10 meter radio usage and what I said or didn't
say regarding it comes off as nothing less than sheer desperation. You
might as well be trying to discredit me on the basis of spelling
errors. Waht the hecke, heres a bunch of them for youe; have funn. :
)
-A
>yes its his own tactic used against him. whats the problem? ps owning a boat
>doesnt give you the right to illegally use a marine radio. i own to boats
>explain to me what rf rights it gives me
Let's see now, don't you think that the use of a marine radio is more
likely to be legal if it's used for it's intended purpose? <sound of
me hitting myself on the head with a boot> What was I thinking? Of
COURSE you wouldn't think THAT!!!
>frank, aaron was here before you. there was alot you missed my friend.
If you check the archives, I was here before him.

>never said he did say it, did i? i said he's implied it for sure and MAY have

Well then where did he imply it?
> dont put this bullshit on me like you have this other mystery fellow.
Nobody forced you to take Clyde's position, Timmy. Don't blame anyone
else for your statements except yourself.
>the only way you can be sure what aaron has or hasnt said since day one is if
>you are him.
Try here:
I suggest using 'advanced search' and that should make your search a
little easier. No longer do you have any reason to avoid the question:
Where did Voobner imply that all 10 meter radios are illegal?
You lie like a rug, Aanal Aaron. As usual. Or do you call it
"selective recall" so you won't embarass yourself?
Try looking through the excessively long thread about "Legal? ... at
eButt". You said and/or implied many times that ten meter radios were
illegal before you were drowned out by people who knew better. One,
Tom Sevart N2UHC, practically had to hit you over the head by
repeating that licensed amateurs could use any radio they want in the
ham bands, something you vehemently disagreed with.
The entire point of that thread was you crowing that the FCC had
declared all those ten meter radios somehow "illegal", and did you
ever crow. Until you were proven wrong.
You did NOT know that hams were exempt from type acceptance. You did
NOT know that Novices and Tech+ license holders had 10 meter
priviledges. There are so many things you didn't know that I cannot
list them all. Nobody has to try to discredit you; YOU have totally
discredited yourself.
So, where's your alleged PROOF, Aanal Aaron? You got none, so you
continue to resort to lame repetition. Put up or shut up, dimbulb. I'm
still here and I'm still waiting.
>Because it was a tantrum where you blame Doug and Leland Scott for all
your problems. >>
Mmmmmmph....you're missing posts agin...I have no problems...everything
is just right!
What was posted was all true. Lelnad forges and lies and, well, everyone
knows all about your posse of trouble consisting of Frank Gilliland,
Lelnad KC8LDO the forger and obessive collector of mens undergarments,
Dave Hall the socialistic commie, and Dogie who is pissed off cause he
can't find any gay cbers.
>It made you look like a certified loony. I figured I did you a favor by
snipping it. <
"Figuring" and "thinking" by you should be carefully selected, maybe
even ran by a freebander for permission before you post, this way you
won't continue to libel your troubled nocode friends anymore.
>Oh well. <
S'ok. As I demonstrated yesterday, you are still in the learning
process.
could it be that my answer was in proper context to a fellow freebander
and you merely tried but failed to make it look as if I was encouraging
one to do so?
>You asked for an example of you encouraging someone to break the rules.
So now it doesn't count because it was a "fellow freebander"? <<
I encouraged no one. I merely stated my opinion. We know you have
difficulties telling the difference.
>OMG. <
Yes?
>LOL. Twist, you are a precious commodity, you make me laugh so hard.<<
I aim to please.
That pulled yahoo addy has you sore, eh?
>If wishes could come true, huh, Twist? <
If that were true, we would all be weraing the same uniform and Dave
Hall would be the exalted dictator with you his ministry of foolishness
and Dogie the jester and LElnad the knight that is in drag.
>I've never been pulled. <
You're the one that said you would post from there..we're still waiting.
A quick change of the subject didn't make us forget your promise.

No, I',m speaking of voo...@yahoo.com

Yea, I figured as much, as that usually happens whenever you get your
tail slammed in the door.
