    7/8th wave ..or not

    I own Megawatt 4000 and it works fine with tuned coil. With original coil swr readings was not good anywhere. Measured with antenna analyzer. Same issue with 5000.

    Sirio Vector 4000 SWR issue

    Can you tell gamma match lenght?. Is it near to bottom when you get that result?. Maybe you have to shorten top section to get lower swr on 27.405. 1:1.0 can be archived fine tuning. I have tuned with antenna analyzer.

    Short Review - Anysecu / Quansheng UV-K5

    AM rx at weak signals is good but there seem to be issue with agc. High AM rx signal level sound is badly distorted.

    Just finished my tx measurement and warning!. Do not tx under 136MHz without hw modification. 50MHz tx 2nd harmonic 100MHz is stronger then 50MHz signal!. 70MHz tx 2nd harmonic is equal to tx freq !

    WFM rx is prety good. I can receive radio stations from Kalix Sweden about. 160km away from my qth with Nagoya NA-775 antenna Also air band works better with NA-775. AM audio cracs some times when signal level chances , but that is not a big broblem.
