    RFX95HD on a Bearcat 880 help...

    Doug at Custom CB was the first to do an Rfx-75 to an 880 radio and market it as an option years ago. If your stuck you might give him a call, maybe he would at least offer up some tips. I don’t think he does YouTube videos.

    Anytone at-5555 PLUS

    I think you are spot on. Messing with these setting is the old school equivalent of opening up a radio and twisting every VR pot a little. Then trying to put them back in about the same spot. At this point I would be Leary of buying a used Anytone on say E-Bay, might be a dicked up radio that...

    Galaxy DX-2517-300, DX-2587

    Looks pretty cool. If he's gonna run it at that wattage a fan mounted some kinda way to that amp board will be a must.

    Question for HT folks

    Had to check mine. The two Baofeng radio’s I have are just like that. My Yeasu FT-70d is just the opposite.

    Ranger Superstar SS-158VC6 ???

    A local guy has an RCI 99n2 that he bought new. It didn't sound real good on SSB so he sent it to Doug at Custom CB Radio's. When he got it back it sounded great and had a much better looking signal on his scope. Doug didn't try to wrangle every last watt out of it either. Personally i'm not a...

    ICOM IC-7300 Questions

    Galanary, google an Icom 746 Pro or Yeasu 991a. Look at pics of the back of those radios and you will see multiple antenna input locations. They put a lot inside those radios to be able to work like that.

    https://strykerradios.com/product/front-display-board-for-stryker-sr-955hpc-sr-655hpc-10-meter-radios/ Well with any luck it's just a connector or solder issue.

    Radioddity QT80 (6666 pro clone)

    I'm sure they can go back over the radio to make sure all is right. I have never got super concerned over "advertised" watts from this radio or that amplifier. I have an Omegaforce S45-HP (rfx75) that is advertised as an 80 watt radio. Superior cb did a warranty repair on it and at my request I...

    Ham Radio Question

    There is no reason not to get your ticket really. I just did it earlier this year after many years of dragging my feet. I still love talking 11m SSB but you have so many other new options. As far as cost, jeez when you price some of the new RCI and Stryker stuff wow. There are plenty of used...

    Icom Ic7300

    It’s a touch screen radio, pretty cool actually. Best bet would be to get on you-tube and type in Icom 7300 or icom 7300 controls. At that point you should have hours worth of videos pop up. Scan through them and then start watching. I would also do a google search for Icom 7300 manual. Several...

    Car Stereo Capacitors used for Amplifiers ?

    Glad that is working out for you. The 240 amp alternator and heavy gage wire are probably the most important parts of the setup. Usually when this topic comes up most people want to add bat caps to their setup (85-120 amp alternator) so they can run a bigger amp.

    Galaxy DX99V from dual to single final possible?

    You can control the output from the front of the radio. The RF power control is lower middle. You should be able to turn it down on ssb to almost nothing, or set it where ever you need it. Hate to see you butcher that radio up for no reason.

    PALOMAR ELITE 250 - DYNAMO 175 - repairs/mods

    Glad you got it working. That said do not run a 2970 with any of those amplifiers. Way way too much radio.

    Car Stereo Capacitors used for Amplifiers ?

    Switch there is an old thread here on running bat caps from stereo shops here somewhere. As already stated the general consensus was it just didn’t accomplish much. In your case an upgrade to say a 140 amp alternator would be money and time better spent.

    Uniden 505XL

    Can't tell if your being funny or serious. This is a 40 dollar throw away radio new, 15 bucks used. It's probably dinky little surface mount parts, bump the modulation and run a better mic. Done.
