thanx Jon...i was getting worried maybe things were going screwy where better to ask than a place where those with the same rig hang out :)

thanx 442, appreciate the reply... if i ever take it out of the truck again (damn i hope that never has to happen...dash install...pain in the ass) i'll try a reset on it for kicks and giggles ya the one further up involves a .x7x i believe but i've always known about that one...been on other...

exactly what i was thinking :) thanx for the link CK

That's just it Robb, I wont be able to remove the coax from the house. I don't mind having to go outside and removing a couple of connections from within a remote box and isolating them (the ones that do lead inside) away from the tower. The tower itself with be right beside the house as well so...

D-104 silver eagle D-104 T-UG8 Turner +2 Johnson (Turner variant) EchoMax 2000 that came with the 2950DX i bought (no intention of ever using it...too gimmicky) small collection so far but i'm working on it :) i also have an AudioTechnica ATM61HE from my stage days that i'd love to home-brew...

with reading some of the conversations lately re: lightning protection i'm wondering if anyone has gone the extra step of adding arrestors inline on their coax? Once the tower goes in i'll be going 40+ feet up, down to ground and then back up to the second level of my house through a wall where...

Cobra 139XLR CBTricks Astatic Microphones strictly a schematic but maybe it can be of some use? couldn't find a detailed input wiring description

it's a never ending adventure boomer :) i had to move mine 3 " so the coax would stop rubbing on my roof but have yet to re-check it as yet. and with winter coming i don't see that happening for a few months :D concentrating on trying to get a base set up as i don't see too much time spent in...

Much thanks Henry :) If I ever make it to my Dad's homeland i'll stop in and buy one of your amazing creations :)

ya i was worried about the angle of radiation effects on the horizontal Robb if they were too close together. Much appreciate the feedback. Looking at the bag o' popcorn i'm guessing some contradicting opinions might be expected? lol

considering getting a tower up before the weather rally goes cold... is there a recommended height gap i should use between an A99 with the ground plane kit and a horizontal (thinking about a Maco 3 element on a rotor)? doing 30 ft of tower w/ a 10ft mast...or a 40 ft tower, have to see what...

145SD/0 on 610 (no split?) nothing but static and "farts" everywhere else

thanx for the pics HomerBB :)

didn't have the heat running so truck was a lot cooler in the interior than normal...was driving home listening to the truckers on am just prior, no TX going on from me. it was the first time i'd keyed up the whole drive home. i definitely see what your point is tho. I hear they don't like...

there's a couple east...near Toronto. I pick them up a bit but they're in the zone another is central...right about dead center actually

i read this for the first time yesterday (of your problem with the radio)....and dammit if mine didn't do the exact same thing today was sitting there on t5U and was gonna answer a dx call. keyed it up and wtf, bam...meter all the way to the right with no modulation messed with the mike gain a...

mini-RANT nothing against the users at all...would love to get up into the frequencies myself. I guess my issue is with "the system". Basic (which i believe is the same as "tech" in the US) you need to learn electrical. K, i can understand knowing the difference between AC and DC and the basic...

thanx 'Doc :)

from what i've been able to dig up i'm reading it was 20k...also read somewhere that the head was gold and the bottom was brass?? haven't been able to find anything "official" tho...there's gotta be some way of getting it checked out? aren't jewellers good at that kinda thing?
