Amherst PD · Sunoco, 6125 Main

Confused Woman Leaves Sunoco With a Man in a Black Maserati

FRS 15 · Ham/GMRS chatter

The Oatmeal-Cookie, Grandbaby-Pool, 80-Foot-Antenna Man on FRS 15

A private radio conversation about backyard antennas, family visits, and ‘why’d you send me home with those cookies’

For twenty minutes starting just after 19:00, a pair of amateur-radio hobbyists took over FRS channel 15 with the ambient soundtrack of Western New York summer: fishing plans, grandkids coming Monday, a swimming pool bought to “burn off some energy,” and, unavoidably, the confession, “Why’d you send me home with those cookies, man? I already ate five of them oatmeal cookies as I got home”. The conversation drifted from oatmeal cookies to a proposed 60-to-80-foot antenna — “You can dig a foundation, pour some concrete, have it freestanding, and run some power” — in what may be the most casually ambitious backyard project of the week.
