    Imax2000 antenna.

    Kindof depends on what you'd like and local WX conditions. Cheaper aluminum 5/8's may not stand up to high winds & ice. If you like the aluminum antennas and have hard conditions you can always get a Colossal 10K from Zero-Five Antennas. That'd be "the best" for heavy-duty construction and high...

    Imax2000 antenna.

    jcpenny ssb 02A chip

    Interesting Rig of the time. I liked the looks. Nothing fancy inside but another more rare example of a "above bottom of the line radio" that curiously didn't have a Mic Gain. Friend has a Voyage 9000 medium power export that doesn't have a mic gain.

    PDC "lunar cricket."

    Handy way to test is using one of those Mic Tester Boxes. Has built-in speaker and connections for DC power and Audio. I used to use those to test noise toys all the time. You'll just be using the connections on the sides and not any of the mic plugs on top. Shown is a Superstar T747

    North GA Linked GMRS System Cited by the FCC 8/10

    Here is the letter sent out 8/15 to NGGMRS Members. One of them reposted it in it's entirety on another radio forum. I took 3 Screenshots to capture it all.

    North GA Linked GMRS System Cited by the FCC 8/10

    This is causing a bit of a stir in the community in the area - lol . So the GMRS Group has already responded and they are going to stand the system down by Oct. 1st - keeping all the machines on the air - just that they will no longer be linked. The same group has created a "sister" system on...
