My Diamond V2000a is resonant on GMRS & has far better gain than my GMRS Base antenna. I have not gotten the V2000a back in the air after changing out the coax & repainting the antenna but I have no doubt that it will work far better than the little GMRS Base antenna since it has three times the...

OUCH. You may never over that one in just One Lifetime. That's like having Brandon & Cameltoe as your neighbors. {:>(

Look up Goob-WW4US on QRZ.com & email him. He rebuilds the FT-101 radios all of the time & he may have one or can lead you to one. He's a great guy & knows those radios inside & out with his eyes closed. Clayton W4KVW

LYNYRD SKYNYRD did not have their names on the event shirt because they didn’t make any money from them so you had to buy one of their shirts if you wanted something with their name on it.

Funny thing about 6 meters is that Lee-KZ4RR & I live about 30 miles apart & we have chatted many many times over the years & we never met face to face until we were both at Dayton Hamvention in 2013. We traveled that far to actually meet face to face. I met several others with the 6 meter crowd...

Besides being very active on Amateur Radio I am a Performer/Solo Vocalist & I perform Classic Country Music & Traditional Southern Gospel Music. I also Love fishing for Largemouth Bass when my health allows it. I find that I'm most relaxed when I'm on stage performing & the larger the crowd the...

6 was open quiet a bit Today again so you are missing out.

I think Farmville is a game of some sort but I don't play games either so it's a guess since I seem to remember seeing someone talking about it somewhere once. Yes, many FT8 stations are Unattended once they get it going. The set it & forget it which as we all know is not legal but so many...

They brought one to Orlando Hamcation several years ago & they said they sold very few of them but some did take advantage of them. I'm putting a LIL TARHEEL HP on my pickup this coming week so at 1 lb 9 ozs I don't think I'll need one. I'm replacing the Four Hustler antennas, 6 meter 1/4 wave...

4 Eggs Over Medium,Country Sausage,& Bacon,with a Big Glass of water over Ice. I'm a Low Carb Guy so my diet is different than most. {:>)

Is it the Regular Big Stick or the Super Big Stick? I have seen both but I don’t really know what the difference was?

Be VERY Careful. There is some SERIOUS High Voltage in that amplifier that will KILL YOU Grave Yard DEAD & Fast. If you don't know what you are doing then leave it to a Professional since they get paid to save lives.

A Breakfast Bar & a bottle of Cold Water.

SOLD the FT-900 for Parts so I no longer need the information.

When the touch screens start failing it will be mostly after the radios are no longer in production & no longer covered under the warranty so even locating a replacement could be a very expensive repair if you can even locate one. They have had several issues with some of the screens on the ICOM...

I avoided it like I do with all Contests & Nets. I am a DX Chaser & don't play with either of those. I'm a Former Contester & Contest Winner on VHF & I burned out on it long ago.

I own an ICOM 7000 & if it fails I'll find another one because I have Zero desire to own any other mobile. I have owned (4) of them over the years & .it's the ONLY HF & beyond mobile I will ever use again. I had a Brand New Yaesu FT-891 & I never even put any power to it before I Sold it. I...

It's a Dying business. I did it for 13 years in the late 70's & early 80's. We had the layaway plan & we were the last friends to let you down.

9 over 13? I'd love to see a picture of what that looks like on an S Meter. I have been playing radio since 1965 & I have never heard of such a report? Sounds like something somebody just made up because they don't know how to read the S Meter or something because there is No 13 on any meters...
