I know I am addicted. There are people out here who are a government check away from poverty but still wheel and deal for more equipment.
There is an opening for a good transmitter smuggler who knows his way around the wall.
its an itch... if youre not radiating on some band its like you get antsy.

Been Part 15ing since 1962.
To confess, I just went through the whole addiction cycle.
I became discusted with how small our place is in a universe of 100s of thousands of streaming stations and how few households are generally located within the teeny footprint of a part 15 station and I started to go into withdrawel.
Then all of a sudden I remembered that I enjoy the heck out of having radio stations and programming and I needed a fix right away.
Yes, I'm using again. Using micro radio to give life meaning in a time of climate collapse and political regression.
Addiction has been underrated.. it can be exactly what we need.
Been a radio listener all my life....since 8 or 9 years old(1956 and on)
And around 2005 or thereabouts when radio abandoned what I grew up with, the oldies stations weren't real oldies anymore, I couldn't go without it....so I had to create my own station with me the programmer and having a station to listen too again. So came part 15/BETS-1
Don't think that there's rehab for radio addiction.
