    Mobile Center Load Antenna question

    Hi, i currently use only mag mount antennas and have had very good results with an old wilson 1000 antenna. Im wondering if trying a center load antenna would gain even better results. I find that center load antennas usually are fixed mount and not usually seen used with a mag mount i guess...

    Antenna / Radio Selector Swich

    Good afternoon, im using a mfj 1700 type antenna / transmitter switch (currently used with 3 antennas / 5 radios).

    President Radio Finally comes thru

    Your original posting was between a Lincoln and a mckinley. If you are looking at other options after you rid the mckinley then sure, theres others worth mentioning. Including the 6666 and strykers. But back to what you started this post comparing, between the two, Lincoln is my pick. Good luck

    President Radio Finally comes thru

    Ya, i think you have more options available to you with the lincoln. Its the way i would choose but your mileage may vary :) cheers

    President Radio Finally comes thru

    Sell it new in box and get the lincoln. My reasoning on this is 1. You already had a mckinley and 2. The Lincoln can be channel expanded which may or not be important to you. If the added channel coverage is important to you then imo the decision is simple :) Best and 73s

    Uniden 980 Display On/Off switch

    Uniden 980 Display On/Off switch

    Hello guys. Is it possible to turn off the 980 display but have the radio still on or is the brains for the radio part of the display panel ? Wondering if possible and if it is how hard would it be to do? Tia

    MFJ-1026 Noise Canceller Fried ?

    Hi guys, I bought this unit used and suspect it took a whack by previous owner likely using it with an amplifier. When i decided to open it up to have a look and confirm jumper settings i noticed the stock light bulb/ fuse was cooked. I replaced it with another similar 12v bulb figuring this was...
