http://www.icomamerica.com/downloads/US_UHF_VHF_Band_Chart.PDF This chart use to be clear, but it shows SSB allowed in places where it is not. Not much AM on VHF and above except for 6 meters, 50.400 I think. What is allowed, and what is acepted are 2 different things. Every once in a...

Signal engineering does a dual polarity quad. But it uses two coaxes

Crusader, where in SW England are you? I got hitched in St. Petrocs Cathedral(sp) a couple of decades a go. No what ya mean about the cost of things. It just easier to change the dollar sign for a pound sign......... One year I bought 6 radios from Cooper. 2950's I think and spent a little...

In Europe 6.675(?) was a popular "Free Band" but I think it is intended for maritime. 13.985 was another place. I bet just above or below every band there is some activity. Oh I almost for got, 7.410 +/- is popular for pirates, mostly one way broadcast but ocasionaly you would hear QSO...

The thing about 6 meters, when it is open you can stick a coat hangar in the SO-239 port and work DX. But it is not open all the time. The Moxon described above is easy to make. I velcroed one to the top of my pick up shell. Not an exact fit but it worked good enough to make a lot of DX...

Any one have a good source for stainless U-bolts?

Is there some one offering Replacement moonraker hubs? Who? Where? $$$?

That's the connectors I was looking for. Kind of pricey though. According to Henry's website they are BIRD propriety(sp) so I guess that why they cost so much.

I seem to remember some one posting a link to a site that dealt with converting the CB type tube amps to 6 meters. Any one have it?

Thanks for the link NJ 124. The connectors I was asking about are for the meter. His site referes to them as "DC" connectors. I'll need a couple of those too.

Check out this item on ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=007&item=170015773971&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&rd=1 Looks like it takes bird 43 elements. And can do forward and reflected at the same time. But what type of connectors does it use for the meter movement?

Any one have a good website that explains the different type of aluminum tubing sizes? What fits into what and so on? I made a few beams out of scrap metal and think I have it all worked out. Now I want to buy some aluminum pieces and make it right. Also what size would be best suited to...

Anyone up to speed with EZNEC? I downloaded the free vresion but haven't read the manual yet.

It depends on the mode also. http://pulsar.princeton.edu/~joe/K1JT/ http://www.pingjockey.net/cgi-bin/pingtalk

It depends on your set up. If all you have is a ¼ wave ground plane then you’re going to think the band is dead most of the time. If you got a beam, a preamp and some pwr, then the band is always open to somewhere. From San Diego I can work SSB to LV, central and northern CA most days or nights...

Southern CA. 1 post hmmmmmmmmmm

Thanks Nomad, that PLL unit is something like what I was thinking of. Shame about the drift but not bad for AM I guess. My kid was playing with the radio and ended up on 27.085, I heard all those Brownings out there made me interested again, maybe a Christmas present for myself. So do you...

Anyone know of any good Browning Golden Eagle sites? Might be in the market for a Mark IVA, local pick up only though.

There is no reset button. You'll need to find some one with the abilitity to program.

Not really "Normal Channels". The radios are usally shipped blank with no information at all. When a customer wants one it is then programmed with their frequencies and the options that they purchase. If you don't have a business frequency in mind then you probably would want the MURS...
