    11 meter is very quiet?

    Amazes me why someone would spend so much of their money just to come to LSB38 to constantly play police sirens.

    11 meter is very quiet?

    So, would that be directional, maybe two ways, or omni, or how does it act?

    Ah the good old days

    I'm pretty sure that was my first 3 element beam in '77. I was 14 and we had a radio shack and my dad bought it, so it had to be.

    Got my Tiny SA Ultra (first thoughts)

    I got one a week or so ago. Mine come from AURSINC which is on the good list also. I used it to check frequencys on my radios. I will have to learn more about this thing and what else I can do with it.

    Ah the good old days

    In 1990, my 2nd setup was Cobra 89 with upper/lowers, D-104, Maco 300 gold face with receive, driven by JB-125 modulator, with Maco 4 element beam on 50' tower. Was TOO MUCH living in town, it had to go. Next was Galaxy 33 and groundplane...just doesn't compare!

    Looking for .stl files for cb radios...I now have a 3-D printer
