I do exactly the same thing and fuse my positive and negative leads for the KX3 with a 2.5A fast act glass fuse. The real advantage to the Buddipole batteries seems to be the internal thermistor internal polyswitch but I think the fusing I described should provide protection as well. Any...

Has anyone heard reference to a serial number at which point this radio has rec'd all factory updates? That's fairly common in other products, like amateur radios.

Galaxy 959 video Hey thanks a lot for posting that Youtube video of your new galaxy radio! That was awesome.... More people should do that, including me! I really enjoyed watching that, thanks again. :)

Ultimate base/mobile setup Good luck FJR Predator. You won't regret it. Have Fun!

Let's be serious, even if just for a brief moment. NO offence to anyone with what I'm about to say. Please. 1500-2000 watts into a beam antenna using a $300.00 cb radio. May I have some of that money you're prepared to throw around? :shock: If you're looking to drown out other cb radio...

repair FT840 Good morning: What's your radio doing?

Ranger Freedom One If you can pick one up for $75, nab it! That's a great deal. I had mine opened up for above and below cb freqs. I use it with a Turner noise cancelling mic and it seems to be a good combination; I get good reports on audio. I think my clarifier was opened a little much to...

The 7000 is a beautiful radio that builds on the feautures of the 706. I don't own one but have two friends that do. I've owned a MKIIG for 4 years now and would buy a 7000 at the drop of a hat. The FT897 (have one} is a good radio as well, but is a totally different creature than the 7000 and...

Good for you. Good attitude. You're right, there is more to amateur radio than just ragchewing. Have fun and never stop learning......... :lol:

Icom 746 Pro I don't own a 746 Pro. I do own a TS570, TS50 and an Icom 706 MKIIG. I've talked to many people who run an Icom 746 and they can be a nice sounding rig if they're set up right. They have a lot of potential; all mode VHF and HF. Make sure the Pro you're looking at has been...

Yep, I'll be sure to let you know if I hear anything.............

Thanks for all the comments guys. I hear at least one pre-production run of the 175 watt S9s is out for testing. 'Will be following reports on that one in the next couple weeks............

Thanks for the reply lords. I haven't heard a great deal about it so far. 'Kind of surprising considering all the hype before it came out. I enjoy my S-9.

Has anyone bought one of these radios? What do you think of it so far? Are there any reviews anywhere on the net? Curious to know what they're like........... :?:

Well, good luck finding out your problem. I've run two Lincolns and one 2510 for over ten years and thankfully never had this issue. Happy Easter

Don't talk on it when you're underwater! :roll: Sorry, I couldn't resist........ Seriously, sounds like a power supply issue. Could the radio be starved for power? Is the radio power connection connected directly to the battery and not the fuse panel? If mobile, does it only do it when your...

Cobra 200GTL Tony: I bought one of these when they were first available on the market, in September 2005. I still love the look of the radio and it's supposed features. However, that's where it ended! Transmit audio on ssb was horrible. I kept it 3 days and sent it back to the retailer on a...

Best export radio President Lincoln for sure, followed by S9. :shock:

Superstar SS158EDX 10 metre radio This looks like a nice radio. 'Can't wait to get one.........soon. Talked to Al at Sparky's and he's quite impressed. Same basic radio as Connex 4800. Great price. :wink: The Superstar DM452 might compliment this radio nice.
