I want to run a 2x6 pill with 120 amp draw in my Suburban. If I install a 275 amp alternator in place of my stock alt. and use two 12 volt batteries (total) in parallel for a 12 volt system, would this handle the load, plus my regular vehicle system? what's the lowest amp alt. I could use for...
thanks
I think average RG 58 holds around 200 to 500 watts. Some guy told me that he ran 2000 watts thru the Alpha Wire and it didnt even get warm. I find this hard to believe...
I am using Apha Wire for small wattage applications. model 9058C is 50 ohm RG58/U coax and it works quite well. I was wondering how it compares to other RG58 coax, and I can't seem to find the wattage rating on it. Does anyone know?
you did good
no, I was just commenting on the specs of the radio. Iv'e had exports before. I was just thinking out loud about buying the radio. I own a Ranger 2990 and a 2950. I wanted to be sure that other S-3 owners were being satisfied with the product. :D
Well, it worked
well, I just tuned Kale's new 12in dual coil SW series, and tuned it out perfectly with 17 feet of coax and a quad mag mount, and I didn't even have to cut anything (just pulled it out a few inches), and SWRs fell flat!! I then adjusted it to a 1.1 Never had one go that well...
Yes, its true
On my Dodge Ram I used 18 feet and a bolted down mount. 1.1 SWR on the 22 inch shaft 10k. I was just concerned that Im about to use 17 feet of coax on a quad mag mount tuning the new 12 inch SW shaft on top of my Expedition. I really don't believe I'll have a problem tuning it down.
My first 10k tuned at a 1.1 SWR with 18 feet of coax. If use 17 feet on other vehicle to tune another antenna, will this stop me from getting the same reading? or is coax length just a myth once you get the lowest SWR achievable at any length?
