The Electric City revisited

The Electric City

Took a drive down through the Electric City.
Some Kenwood 2 meter transceiver tech,
146MHz and a .5w input SMC-30 mic check.
Non-ionizing radiation, beef jerky gritty,
an appeal to their dynamic committee.

CQ CQ CQ this is Blackwater,

do you copy?

Half-assed half-studied,

Over.

We met the Hams,
we took the Ham test,
we shook the Ham hands,
we became ham-handed Hams in hand.

Impedance and resistance, Ohm I God!

They radiated in from far and wide,
curiosity frequencied at the speed of light.
They said ‘hello’ with their mouths,
‘who is trying to join our club’ with their stares.

Took a drive down through the Electric City.

O’Hare Motor Inn terminal Sip’n’Dip,

Rainer and MGD, large bill larger tip.

Ashtrays and repeaters, gettin’ shitty

shorting grounded regulations no pity.

KF7TBR this is KF7TBS,
Mission accomplished,

Over and Out.
