Episode 126 Posted!

Radar — Sun, 06 Feb 2011 07:58:54 +0000

Cats sleeping with dogs, up became down, black became white... the universe is in absolute chaos. Our first show of 2011 went off without a technical hitch! Don't get too scared, little Billy, the end will come soon. Ok, but seriously, don't get too excited. Just because we have a show without any technical difficulties does not mean that the show was actually good. You'll have to be the judge of that yourself.

In this episode, we covered the usual biz of Airsoft Items of Interest, OPSEC Station News and Shameless Plugs, but our main topic was Changing Scenery; how to reestablish yourself in airsoft should you have to relocate. This topic is close to my heart as I relocated in July of 2010 across the country and am still in the process of getting reestablished. Hopefully if there are any other airsofters out there going through the same process, this topic will guide them and possibly save their sanity.

Speaking of Shameless Plugs, listener Tyler Stanfield from Ohio is battling Ewing Sarcoma (who is making excellent progress!) and his local community is throwing an event in his honor to help offset the cost of his fight. The event details, registration info and how you can donate if you can't attend have been posted in the show notes. Click here to get the info. Tyler, OPSEC is pulling for you brother, get well soon!

Episode 118 has been posted!

Radar — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 19:32:01 +0000

118 turned out to be an all-star cast (Lice, Fisch, Jem, Shoe & Radar) for what probably will be one our most informative shows we will ever do. We have been plagued with emails and IMs to do a "new player guide" for a while now. We have avoided it for some unknown reason, but in this episode, we bit the bullet and knocked one out. Covering everything from getting into the scene, gearing up, building an arsenal and playing your first game. With all the staff chiming in, we had quite the panel to bounce ideas and methods off of. We also had a few bits air including (our favorite) the F.U. Line, SoCal Airsoft Dictionary, Weather from on High and OPSEC Station News. All in all, a good time was had and hopefully some of the advice dished is useful.

Episode 116 Has Been Posted

Radar — Fri, 22 May 2009 17:41:15 +0000

Episode 116 is here and what an adventure it was. We had originally planned to have Lice in the studio with the regular staff of Alphawolf & Radar. Well, not so much. Turns out that Alphawolf had a TON of prep to do for this weekend's big game and Lice got the date mixed up... leaving Radar high & dry. Luckily Fisch was able to remote-in and save Radar's bacon, which was actually a blessing in disguise as we now have our remote-guest/host tech finally figured out.

In this Episode, we resurrect our favorite series, "Know Your Role", and discuss the wonders of the RTO role. We covered a quick FRS/GMRS refresher, common radio hardware tips and the specs of the role. On top of that, we answered a few listener emails, announced our latest offerings and talked about a few of the recent news items from around the web. Overall, a show to make Mom proud:

Episode 115 Has Been Posted

Radar — Mon, 04 May 2009 18:39:36 +0000

Episode 115 is the perfect example of what OPSEC was designed to be. We technically started at noon with a BBQ and drinks, talking about the game and what we all we getting into. At 2p we flipped on the mics and went to work. The show was a little loud and crazy, but captured the essence of almost every post-game gathering I can recall, not to mention this is how we use to do it during the first season of the show.

We had prior host Lice and friend Shoe in on the program, making for a very well rounded cast. Seeing as big Op season is upon us, we thought we'd help out by trying assist in gearing up for Op season by sharing our experience, trials and errors. We had a few great FU line calls and our usual handful of interesting airsoft items that recently hit the market. All in all, a pretty damn good show.

Episode 114, the great return show, went pretty smoothly after the first 15 minutes of tech issues... but then again, what did you expect? We're a bit rusty, but fell back into our groove in no time. Friend of the shoe "Shoe" dropped by and sat in as our third making for a very well rounded evening. We popped a few bottles of home brew and had a blast talking shop. The MP3 is up and ready to give you multiple eargasms:
