Mod worked perfectly, but power on/off it cleared the mod. Had to repeat the process again. Oh well, I only wanted to see if it worked since I only hang out on the ham bands anyway :)

I had the very same experience, but after consulting with several knowledgeable hams, they told me the Truck Body acts like the Counterpoise and may very well give better reception reports with various antennas over the 102" whip. The true test would be to have a friend with a good radio and...

Real Ham Operators love to experiment, not just key a mic and chat (appliance operators). We love to get our hands dirty, burn ourselves soldering and deeply inhale those whisps of solder smoke as we create or repaire ham gear.

I put on my seatbelt, mask and rubber gloves and accessed the Service Menu (Safety First) by holding in the Menu & Mode buttons. Let go as soon as you power it up, then hit each button next to them moving down the line starting with DW. That will land you in the Service Menu. You should see FM...

Glad you took the time to look up my name on QRZ. I hope you learned somthing.

Not clueless.....not my fault that Mother Nature finally gave us Floridians a break and he completely disappeared off our scope (as did Hard Drive). My comment was reiterated from another poster who said the same thing. If indeed Timmy is still doing his thing and you live nearby.....well...

Nobody of any integrity wants to see rude or ignorant comments from the peanut gallery on their YouTube channel.

I did not just fall off the back of the turnip truck...been doing this since 1960. BBI does better and neater work than ANY other amp builder and I'm staring at about a dozen different amps by various builders as I write this.
