    Captain Kilowatt and SuperLid. You are right. If the transceiver doesn’t have a Send RCA, these type of amplifier won’t work. In my station, I have 4 transceivers, 2 HF and 2 CB transceivers. For obvious reasons, CBs don’t have the Send RCA like HF transceivers to activate a HF amplifier. In...

    Yes, your assumption is correct. A foot switch is generally required when the ham amplifier brand is different than the transceiver. Just a foot switch connected.

    You can try the foot switch first to see what happens. I am using Yaesu FL-7000 amplifier with a foot switch for 4 radios ( I select radios by using an antenna switch ). I run an Icom, a Yaesu, a Striker and an Anytone 6666. It’s working fine.

    Motor Maul Remote Control

    I opened up the motor maul to check the 1/4 connector that says “ remote” To my surprise it has 12 volts coming from the alternator. Now I have no idea what the purpose of that connector is. Probably this motor maul is so old that it does not accept any remote.

My doubt is if I need anything else ( resistors, diodes, etc. ) to fabricate this remote. Any help regarding how to make a wired remote...

    Motor Maul Remote Control

    Here are some pictures where the remote goes. I think it is a 1/4 microphone mono connector. There are 2 red cables, one goes to the case ( ground ) and the other one goes to a relay ( see the pen pointing to it ).

    Motor Maul Remote Control Unit

    Hi. I am looking for a Motor Maul remote control Unit ( the one with the voltmeter and the variable ) for an X-Force 200A motor maul. I bought it without the wired remote control. I’ve searched and contacted all the manufactures and builders with no luck. Any one has one one ? I’m willing to...

    Hi again. I had no luck with all the possible builders. No response at all. Any other suggestions?

    Jumper length.

    A choke might help to keep CMC at bay. By the way, what antenna are you using ?

    Here is Mosley’s response: There is a photo on the website that you can view here: https://mosley-electronics.com/cb_27_mhz.html I think they don’t even have photos of this antenna assembled. I told them it’s a drawing. Let’s see what they respond.

    If you are talking about the Devant, there is no real pictures of it. Do a search in Google and verify.

    Jeje, I think is more expensive. They quoted me this antenna recently. Too expensive for an omnidirectional antenna!!!!
