Stolen amateur gear

Last week , I covered the ridiculously low barriers to entry to amateur radio, both in terms of financial outlay and the process of studying for and passing the FCC examination. The next big question may be: Now what? For ham gear, there really is no upper limit on what you can spend. Glossy brochures and slick web pages hawk transceiver bristling with knobs and switches and loaded with the latest features, all of which will probably be obsolete within a few years when the Next Big Thing comes along and manufacturers respond with new, must-have models — looking at you, ICOM IC But thankfully, while there is no apparent ceiling on what you can spend on ham gear, there certainly is a floor, and it can be very, very low.

This has been the craziest week in my mad mad world, hence the adapted movie quote. One of the biggest things that we as photographers fear has happened to me. Our home was burglarized and the thieves nabbed my camera gear. I then called my boyfriend, a Detective with Snohomish County, to share the news.

Please share. My good friend Art Hratchian was brutally ripped off on Friday night. Please keep your eyes out. I would like very much for us to come together and contribute to Art getting his gear back. For those of you who know Art as well as I do, you'll know he doesn't ever ask for anything.
