    Cobra 29 st transmitt

    I see, I appreciate it. I have some pretty decent open hills where I am at. I can pick him up decent with my current set up, so he must be pushing some good power, guess I never asked. All in all, if I can reach our decent, that will be good. Also, I hooked up my Texas Star, got a guy two miles...

    Cobra 29 st transmitt

    No discourage at all. I have a local to talk to about 60 miles away I guess of you call that local. I agree with you that I wouldn't want to spend a lot and then talk little. Thank you once again.

    Cobra 29 st transmitt

    Thanks, I appreciate it. I know I keep saying it, but I truly do. You keep saying praise of the 980, and it looks to be a nice one. Do you think it would match up nice with my Texas Star dx100 amp? Will that amp work for SSb?

    Cobra 29 st transmitt

    Thank yki once again for sticking with me. I see your point. The uniden price is a nice feature for sure. I would eventually like to get my ham technician license, and mount a mobile. Is the stryker that you mentioned going to fit that bill well? I see that it is also a 10m radio. Isn't that for...

    Cobra 29 st transmitt

    Awesome, thanks for your help. Like I said, I'm pretty new. I've always had one, just couldn't quite get it figured out and now I'm starting to get interest again. Watching dome of them guys shooting skip on YouTube is pretty entertaining. Hopefully I'll be able to do so shortly. I just ordered...

    Cobra 29 st transmitt

    How are the galaxy 959 out of the box. It is an attractive radio. I would rather have something that works with some minor tuning than have to open up the radio to have it work properly.

    Cobra 29 st transmitt

    222dbfl, I see you mentioned a meter. I am using the one on the radio (built in). I would like to get an external one, I was looking at the workman dual watt/see meter, but it seems to recieve negative reviews. Any one that is particularly decent around $40?

    Cobra 29 st transmitt

    Thanks once again. How did you like the k 40? I am also looking into the k30. Price is very attractive. I'm thinking about getting an SSb radio too. Which antenna would you recommend then?

    Cobra 29 st transmitt

    I guys, fairly new guy here. I got my Cobra 29 second hand for doing some work. I had an older fiberglass antenna laying around from my old truck and hooked it up. The co ax is a dual antenna, but I only have one hooked up. Adjusted see using meter on radio, achieving a 1 on channel 1 and around...
