    Next Galaxy Mod. Change Crystal to Move Ch13 Birdie

    Good post:thumbup1: Many switching type power supplies cause receive birdies. Alinco has a P/S with a "notch" adjustment just for that reason.

    Opinions on THE best mobile radio for all arround use. PERIOD!

    Texas Ranger TR696FD1 and a TNT350. Make sure to use a good antenna (ex: SkipShooter, Wilson 1000, etc.) and grounding. Simple, very effective setup that won't break your bank account. You will have a blast.

    Icom 746Pro on it's last days from Icom

    Icom had MANY issues with the 746PRO and downplayed it. Hope they get it right with the 9100.

    the new Copper forum?

    I was a member at the Copper forum. Guess I still am. Dunno. Don't care. It seems a "coward moderator" didn't like me and would not allow my posts. Days would go by and my posts would never be approved. I complained to the administrator and the post would show- only to be denied again on the...

    985- If you guys wanna transmit signals well over 3 KHz wide on SSB- Have at it. You will make many enemies and be labeled a "LID." :cursing: :thumbdown:

    Voodoo Audio

    These Voo Doo fellas sound like Doo Doo on the air. Extremely wide on SSB with signals wider than some AM stations. One loser from TX came on 10m bragging about his rack mounted Doo Doo station. He was politely asked to hit the road. A word of advice to anyone on the ham bands - Don't get...

    New Ranger radio

    Must agree with Ron. The platform is there. Lets just tweak it. Go for an advanced RX and TX. Make it visible in any condition. Back lighting is useful to tired eyes while driving at night. Large S-meter is nice, too. Lets back away from the blue. SSB is a must in order to cover a more...

    New Ranger radio

    Thanks Shioda. I must say that we as Cbers are accustomed to status quo. With that said- thinking outside of the box doesn't happen often. So if a change does occur, why not make it a useful tool for the masses? I was not trying to be rude or overly critical of new releases. My apologies if it...

    New Ranger radio

    Thanks Booty. I don't think I am asking too much. Heck, it can be done. I agree about higher quality components inside. There is a fine line regarding price/quality/features. As said earlier- "cutesy" stuff is not needed. ALSO- As an PAID option- a switching power supply that bolts to the...

    New Ranger radio

    OK- Fair enough. CB type accepted- So use a board that is accepted. AM/SSB, PA, 6 digit freq readout and ch display, variable power out, NB/ANL, instant SWR, mic on front, vol/squelch, mic/rf gain, clarifier, TB switch with access in rear of radio to adjust volume via small pot. 3 way aux switch...

    New Ranger radio

    Here is a suggestion- Do an online survey at the Ranger/RCI website. List options that Ranger is willing to consider. Let the consumer decide. Just check the boxes. Simple. Done.

    New Ranger radio

    Who was surveyed? Where are the surveys taken? On the web? Truck stops? Forums? I don't get it... Galaxy seems to be the only company that really listens to us. This is a very confusing time in CB/export radio. As a member of many forums- I have NEVER seen nor heard of any surveys regarding what...
