Didn’t even consider it. I use a big delta. They just use 10/11m so was thinking about a wire loop for 10/11 at their house. Cheap small easy

I sick and tired of you people telling me to check my house for the……..oh wait there it is Nevermind. Yeah I forgot I had a switching supply plugged in. Ugh. Glad you said something I’d just kept on bitching. Guess I never tried any 10/11 using it. Shows up there but not on 75. Ima. Dummy. Carry on

We use them amongst our radio friends here locally. They work good. But yeah if the networks down……..duh! I live the rapid radio commercials bragging they work in the non cell working conditions. And I know guys that believe it! We had a local outage and now they get it.

What is it? Non existent on horizontal

Not radio. Kinda radio. Anyway simpleptt.com has 3 year SIM cards for $55 after shipping.

Size man. Size. The other locals can’t hang a 80-6 delta in their yards

Anyone play with a horz Omni loop and gain anything? Right now I’m using a horz delta and a Astro plane vertical on different radios. I notice I hear less beacon rolling atmosphere crap on the delta over the astroplane. But what advantage would I really gain over building a Omni 10m loop? Edit...

Hahahaha I’ve never heard anyone call dosy stingy!!!! I’ll check it out though

Just my good ol dosey watt meter. Same one I use with everything else I own that moves fine

Anyone compare the luiron 310 ai against another nrc like what the qt80 has in it? How’s it compare? Better or worse? Driving through town is a bear anymore. And highway headlight noise sucks. The qt80 nrc does good but I wonder

My qt40 works great. As well as you’d want. Until you look at the rf meter. Mic gain is up in the menu. All the knobs are all the way up. If I whistle I hit 40w but talking I hover around 8-10 if I’m loud. The tx reports are great as far as quality goes. How/where can I crank the audio up...

I asked ChatGPT to build a high gain Omni horizontal 2 meter antenna. Here’s what I got. Below is a detailed engineering-style construction blueprint for a 4-element stacked 2-meter halo array (144–148 MHz) commonly used by weak-signal operators for SSB, meteor scatter, and aircraft scatter...
