I bought a pretty basic safety razor from maggard about 10 years ago and still love it. The biggest thing to learn and invest in is what blades and lather you like. I started off buying a blade sampler pack from them and settled on astra blades. i’ll change up my lather/soap sometimes. Also a nice brush is good to have.
Oh no
Ha I have almost the same story. Grandfather talking to people on his radio all day, missing dinner, and my grandma getting mad at him. He’s one of the reasons I got into ham radio! Thanks for sharing your story!
If the talking isn’t what you’re interested in:
There’s also digital modes that let your computer do all of the talking through your radio.
Morse code(cw) where you’re not talking so-to-speak, but dit’in and dah’in at someone else.
APRS for geolocation and also a few other messaging services.
Also the fun of building new things.
That urge for a new radio for me looks like comparison hypnosis or rabbit holing.
I’ll see someone post on here/mastodon about a new radio or technology. Then I start checking out the specs. Then I start checking the specs of similar items. On to deciding if I need the newest model though because it has a few more features that I “need”. Oh wait, the other thing has a better this or that.
4 hours later, I have my credit card out and about to check out and then it dawns on me:
Oh wait, do I actually need this?
…yes. Of course. SWIPE
Also the 7300 is great. Congrats and nice find in Japan.
It’s a blast to play. Took about 6 tries to finish the game. The difficulty spike at the end is kinda crazy. Definitely recommend getting it before/if Nintendo takes it down.
