Thanks for the reply salty. I have been workin with it all day. I have it set about 1/4 open and the radio at 7. Its ok, but I think it still needs something. The 575 handheld still sounds better.
Im gonna get this thing workin!

I have recently purchaced the Astatic final edition for use on my RCI 2985DX. Having a little trouble setting (understanding) the mic gain.
On the 575 handheld that I was using, the radio mic gain was set wide open, and the mic's adjustment was set about halfway. This combo seemed to work very...
Doc, You have just given me a great Idea! I have several headsets(including David Clark) that I use in my airplane. I had never even thought about trying them on my "other" radio equipment.
I need to get busy this weekend, and build an adapter to connect to my Base.
Man, I love this forum...
Mine do, on the base. I dont know much about it, but my Imax has gone from flat 1/1 to 1/ 3 over the past few days. It has been raining here for a week! Still not bad, but it has changed.

Hook, I dont think Hawk was implying your lincoln was not properly tuned. Your radio sounds great.

I have been biting my lip on this thread, but I feel I must speak up now.

I do know 2 former employees of EEI, and they are both very reputable people, and now have no ties to the former EEI...
The 2985 is hooked up. Still using the stock mic. thinking about replacing with the 575m-6. It worked great with the Ranger. What mic would you recommend?
Also... Have deadkey set at 2W AM into the KLV350. Only get about 225 on the hi side. Any sugestions on how to drive it?

I have been running a Ranger 696SSB Base but today I ordered a RCI 2985DX. Could not afford a Yaesu.
I will be running a KLV 350 or 550. What can I expect?
Does anyone run a 2985?

Read this review. I bought one 3 months ago, put on a 20' pole with a cheap RS rotor. I mainly use mine to pickup Houston Ground control, 100 Miles from me.

After reading, I bought one from Bobs. Love it. About 50 bucks. Its a "no brainer" SWR/ Watt meter.
