I hate to break it to you but I probably know a whole lot more about electricity than you think. And your message is not answering my question at all. Just more like a vague threat that I might burn my house down by using a very ridiculous hypothetical situation. My question was why do some...

Get an Anytone-6666, 11m conversion is two buttons on the front and it's a great radio out of the box. Do not have anyone "tune" it for you. Just buy one new and get on the air. It's a 10m export and has AM/FM and the SSB that you most definitely want. I have two of them and both put out about...

I just have to ask why I have seen two people now say that wire length connecting multiple power supplies would matter? It's DC and I have never seen that in any industrial applications that were high amperage DC. Maybe the shortest possible length to reduce cost and resistance but never for any...

I love how some hams claim CB was "taken" from them. If they really understood how our government works, they should be lucky it was ever "givin" to them in the first place. But this was a discussion about FM on CB, so 27mhz or not....FM here we come.

Why is there so much hatred for CB being on 27mhz?

I have been playing around with different mics on my 955 the last few days. I had the radio into a dummy load and listened to myself with 3 other radios (980SSB, RTL-SDR, and Tecsun PL-330). By a long shot, I think the stock mic has the best sounding audio and is the loudest. Every other mic I...

It was loud over my way (FLORIDA) for most of the morning and early afternoon. I got two contacts over the pond to England and Ireland! I heard as far away as Germany and Hawaii at around noon. I have never heard skip that good before. Really gets my hopes up for more DX like that in the near...

I have a 6666 and I am almost certain that when I first bought it and had it on the meter, the RF power knob does in AM/FM mode turn the carrier down to 2 watts. In SSB it will limit the peak power. I don't remember what it was exactly but I believe it went under 20 watts PEP on sideband. I'll...

Well Merry Christmas to you too!

I talked to a trucker the other day on 19 that said next time he goes by NM he was going to go find Mark, and not to buy a radio!

Please don't be like this guy on CH 19. I heard lots of drivers in my state cursing this guy out while he was making this video. They were all trying to talk about a wreck and give each other advice on where to turn off, and this guy is just telling everyone they don't know what they are doing...

It's a vertical with two raised radials/counterpoise wires. Nothing unheard of before.

A couple of things come to my mind. From my experience and if I understand it correctly, if you antenna has a good RF ground to work against, then you will see very little if any, common mode currents on your coax during transmit. If you are seeing RF on the shield of your coax, either the...

He still is to this day. What a joke of a man he is.
