Tony,
Vk> Haha, especially when I've been building a low cost SDR on a Pi. ;)
DS> Well, SDR actually stands for "Spousally Declined Radio". Never mind
DS> that [insert month here] is 'Buy Your Spouse A Ham Radio Month'". <G>
Vk> Oh dear. :P
Or the meme where there are 3 items next to the door, for the wife's
usage, when her husband gets home late, as follows:
1) Wooden And Metal Spoon - He's Late.
2) Rolling Pin - He's Drunk.
3) Rifle - He Bought Another Ham Radio.
Or the story of the ham who had his shack in the basement. His wife
never went down there, but told him that "you will not be bringing any
new rigs home!!".
Well, he was lucky enough to have "a candy store" that sold and
repaired ham radio gear in his town. He thought of a scheme, and took
an old box that one of his rigs was in, and carried up the steps,
telling her that "his rig quit working", so he was going to take it
in for service. His wife told him "I'll see you for dinner tonight".
He got home late that afternoon, with his "box", gushing that "they
fixed it and got it working again". What he did NOT tell her was that
there was a NEW RIG inside that box.
That worked for a bit...until she figured out what was going on
(hi hi).
