    NPC Mod For Stryker 497 HPC v2

    Crude but effective. From that SMD cap to the center leg of the TIP36C. Use your flavor of resistor/diode... enjoy.

    New Anytone 6666+

    This reminds me of yet another line from another movie... I feel kinda like Martin Tupper (if you know, you know) as most of life I relate to a movie and/or quote. Pulp Fiction, where Jimmy talks about the sign on his lawn... Jules saying that it's not there. Or another, Mean Girls where Cady...

    Anytone Ares 2

    Not to rain on anyone's parade about this radio but I feel the need to give my two cents... A line from a movie - "that little white speck on top of chicken sh_t, it's chicken sh_t too" and another from a more popular movie "you can't polish a turd". The ARES is a bad design, bad radio... fun...

    FCC should just open up 11meters as a Citizens experimental band.

    I can't say that I listen to channel 21. I spend most of the day on 19, sometimes 28 and 38LSB. And usually, you'll find ole Capt. Ritalin on one of the 3, 19 mostly, attempting to pump himself up and down everyone else that's forgotten more than he's managed to retain in his puffed up little...

    Palomar ERF-2030+

    Uh, well... potting material can be removed and you can see what's inside... just sayin'. Far as max mod goes, it's nothing special. It's already been proven it's no different than what it's been used to replace - Tip36c. If you've not seen it, it's on YouTube... and with an offer to see the...

    predator 10 k????

    They have some in stock but not all and not what I'm looking for, not to mention I'd prefer to buy wholesale and not retail. But yes, you're correct they do and I appreciate the input, thank you my friend.

    FCC should just open up 11meters as a Citizens experimental band.

    And it's 7:42PM here and he's still going. It's ALL DAY LONG and the FCC doesn't do anything. If they don't stop that BS, then there's nothing anyone here on this forum can do that is worthy of drawing their attention.

    How much noise does the fan make though?

    What is this mod? Stryker 955

    My previous post was in no way meant to slam Drail... all I can do is repeat what I was told and we all know that you can satisfy some of the people some of the time but not all the people all the time. Yes, the little Jawa talks smack about Drail all the time but that's all he can do. He...

    Another from Ranger RCI-X9

    My opinion - it's chasing watts. The Almighty WattMeter, all bow down and make a sacrifice to Dosy. Send ye 520's, Z24's and 13N10's unto the alter... lay thy neck upon this block for that I may chop thee... I shall spillith ye magic smoke in a glorious show of sparks and crackles...

    Carl Built

    Well, every time I talked to him he was so grumpy (probably for good reason) but he probably ran himself out of business being rude (haha). I've always thought those cases were the ugliest things I'd ever seen and I went to school with some fugly jokers too. Not to mention how 90% of them look...

    FCC should just open up 11meters as a Citizens experimental band.

    If you listen to "the travel channel" (19) then I think it's safe to say that it's as experimental as it gets and that the FCC doesn't care about it or 99% of their "rules".

    Palomar ERF-2030+

    I don't think you have to worry about buying anything from them. It's either not available from them or just not available for whatever reason the wholesalers are out of most everything now days. It would be interesting to know what their junk 2030+'s are really but they're only hyped up by...

    Awesome. So how do we get a hold of him to buy them now?

    predator 10 k????

    I'm bringing sexy back AND this thread... so is Kale still alive and building these antenna's or has someone else taken over the chore?

    Taking bets on where Fine Tune pops up next

    Just wait a damn minute... there are some of us here that don't believe sh_t stinks until we smell it and that Kool-Aid isn't bad until you taste it. You have no right to keep me from samplin' that Aid... come on!!

    Times Microwave Lmr 400uf

    I don't know but that would be my guess as well. I won't thread-jack but you can guarantee it's scope tuned and has sand in the PL259 threads...

    Times Microwave Lmr 400uf

    Did you figure that in "free space", such as a vacuum? 27.205 in free space with a VF of .84 would be 15.195 feet or 182.34 inches. A wavelength would be 36.179 feet or 434.15 inches. Regardless, 15 ft would fit the 1/2 wave bill. But I gotta say, there's no magic length to coax and I'm...

    Who Else Is Fed Up With "Mud Duck Radio"?

    This is exactly what everyone needs to be doing, paying attention to what he's saying and "showing", which is much of nothing. Let's start with his "calibrated test equipment" which is only the HP/Agilent 8920B (obsolete), that's the only piece he waves his expired paperwork all about in his...

    Who Else Is Fed Up With "Mud Duck Radio"?

    True. Let us all remember that a small donation to the ASPCA might actually #savemofo from the torment of the Skippy peanut butter and what Sherman actually does with it.
