To: info-hams@ucsd.edu

Scott Rosenfeld, NF3I, wondered where the term LID came from.
I didn't make it up and neither did Phillips.

When Morse first started the telegraphic service, the system
consisted of wooden clock gears, etc. and a pencil was drawn
across a moving roll of paper to receive info.  An assistant
one day noted that he could copy the letters, etc. from the
sound.  This lead to a sounder system using electromagnets
etc.

My guess would be, during the early days of telegraphy, a
poor operator or new operator was probably transmitting
messages across the network and somebody probably made an
off the cuff remark "that sounds terrible, like striking
a lid on a jar".  And somebody else probably said "You're
right!  It does sound like a LID."  Thus the origin of the
term LID.  Original from the mind of K5FO.  :-)

Sounded good to me.

I used the following instructions on mine and it worked as advertised.

I was asked about modification of the DJ-580 for out of band operation.
They couldn't have made it much easier:

- Remove battery pack.
  Use a small philips screwdriver (ie. jeweler size) to remove the 4 
screws
  that hold the metal battery slide on the radio.  These are at the outer
  corners of the metal clip.
- Gently lift off the metal clip.  Note that the two power wires are
  on this so don't pull it too far off.  Also note that there is a small
  metal tab on this clip that is inserted in the battery release slide.
  You will want to insert it back in the same hole when you replace the
  metal clip.
- You will see a small RED wire loop as well as a small BLUE wire loop.
  You can gently pull these up with some needle nose pliers.  Cut the
  loops and then cover the ends so they don't contact anything.  My
  method was to cut them not quite at the top, so one wire was a bit
  longer than the other.  I then slipped a small piece of heat shrink
  tubing over the wires so the ends could not contact each other again.
  This is probably adequate. I took a CLEAN soldering iron and used that
  to shrink the tubing a bit just so it wouldn't move.
- Push the wire loops back into the radio.  The metal battery clip will
  push up against the circuit board running down the center of the radio
  so you don't want the wire loops crossing over the circuit board.
- Replace the metal plate -- remember to stick the projection into the
  small hole on the battery release slide.
- Replace the battery pack and reset the radio.  You reset the radio by
  holding the function key down and turning on the power.  Note that
  this clears all memories, so make the mod early -- this thing has
  40 memory channels - a lot to reprogram.

Hope this helps,

I am SLOWLY learning that in amateur radio what you did *Years Ago*, or
how it was done *Years Ago* is the essence of the activity.  Whenever any
subject comes up, the self defined old priests of the temple refer to how
things were done *Years Ago*.  And any questions of whether it makes
sense are responded with "I suggest
you study the history of ham radio and the role the ARRL has played in
preserving our wonderful hobby the last 70 or so years."

Hey! The past is past!  Let's try to live in today at the very least,
maybe between yawns we can work our way up to thinking about the future. 
As it stands now, we should change the name of the hobby from Amateur
Radio to Nostalgic Radio.  It more accurately captures the spirit.  "Well
Preserved" probably is the best adjective for it.

I suppose I expect a national organization that represents the hobby in
government affairs to occasionally make a stink or a comment when things
show indications of going in a bad direction.  I agree that the fellow
involved with the Sheriff's Department needs a lawyer and a national
organization (ARRL) can't replace that.  However, the ARRL can contact
the Sheriff and express their opinion on the use of emergency
transmissions.  They can contact the FCC and express their opinions. 
They can contact the county supervisors in San Diego county, they can
contact the state legislatures and propose a "Policy Statement" allowing
the use of emergency transmissions.  They can contact the Governor's
Office and ask him to make a public statement, maybe even declare a state
"'Emergency Radios Save Lives' Day."  They can write a Press Release
condemning the FCC for forcing the hapless ham, under threat of $100,000
fines, to "volunteer" to give up his radio.  One lowly staffer at ARRL,
with some energy (is this an oxymoron?) can, with a dozen phones calls,
taking two hours, force the Sheriff's department to think this stupid
policy through.  The comments on this board from Sheriff's department
members indicates that in responding to another egregious use of RF
spectrum, the Sheriff's department tossed this case in also and came up
with a policy of punishing people for reporting emergencies.  Surely the
ARRL can't sit around and remain silent when such blatantly unfair (not
to mention stupid) policies are adapted, and supported by the FCC.  Are
they all sitting around in their offices reading their history?  I
suggest that they read the history of the NRA instead.  Whatever your
feelings about some of their stands, they are respected for standing up
to public policies that they and their members disagree with.


Now, I'm sorry I woke you up.  Why don't you all go back to reading the
history of the ARRL. ("Besides, they put out a darn good magazine.")


History is nothing but a pack of tricks that we play upon the dead.

This solution can cure other problems as well.  I recently placed an old
xtal-based Swan FM-2X on packet, and had problems with a noisy audio circuit
with the squelch closed.  Apparently the squelch does not turn off the final
audio amp and enough noise gets through to make my TNC think the frequency
is busy.  Running open squelch and DCD cured the problem without having to
modify the radio.

There are a few places to try.  One is on Warner Ave. right next to the
exit from the 405, just to the west of the freeway.  I forget the name.

Another place well worth looking into is called Halcon Electronics, which
is over by the city of Paramount, I think.  It used to be purely CB and
2-way business band, but they have recently branched out into ham stuff
and have some very attractive prices.  The guy that works there claims they
can beat out any of the majors.

This sounds just like what happened to me, right after I used the 
lighter charger/adaptor for the first time.  It worked once, then
never again.  It has been sent back to Kenwood but I have not heard
anything back yet.

Another ham in my area said that the 78A has a 16v cap at the DC plug
and any spike above that will KILL it, which I am told could happen 
when the vehicle is turned off and the adaptor plugged in.

I am not happy. It has been working fine for 1 1/2 years until I used
their adaptor.

I would add:

- Wax the area were you will be placing the antenna (if not the whole
car) often. Use good wax.

- Keep the roof (as well as the antenna) clean.

- Any small scratches should be able to be filled with wax, or
something like 3M's 'finesse-it'. If that does not help, get your car
dealer or body shop to buff the area. This will usually fix any minor
scratches.

My friends in high school and I noticed the same thing.  After we
figured it out, we started to use it as a joke for each other, even on
SSB QSOs.  We would always put a pause in the middle of "solid" and
maybe even a question mark at the end of the sentence, just to rub it
in.  When you do it on voice ("So, Lid, copy?") you should be sure that
whomever you are talking to has a sense of humor.

Hey Brian

Why couldn't thirty ham groups do this same thing with five 2meter
repeaters? I know it works  quite well in the real world. I know that
there are UHF systems that trunk 5 channels by simply scanning pl tones on
the system. What do you think...would you think there would be too many
busy lock-outs? Could hams adjust to trunking...certainly the rag chewers
would get mighty frustrated :) How else is our repeater infrastructure
going to survive the nintys. We are definatly going to have to look at new
loading criteria....

By George, it fits.  Particularly since much of CW is made up of prosigns and
abbreviations which are very unlikely to be seen on the other modes.  I had
been of the other school before, but I think I've been converted.
