they have since made the 500s better doing away with the blade fuse and using glass fuses and holders into the chassies. It wasn't always like that so tooshay to Texas Star for bettering things. Hmmmm

OK Jazz , I don't usually see Macks replies to anything unless somebody quotes him. I have no idea what his call sign , letters , or phone number had anything to do with this bunk transaction ? (were they suppose to make him a honorable guy ?) BFD ! I never had a chance to say otherwise ...

You either got a better offer for the amp ? or you got something going on in your head that don't make any sence to me at all ? , Your right , 1. You didn't state in your ad that it would be a week or so before you could get this amp out. (would have been nice to know all the same) 2. I paid...

Paypal has been sent. thanks

I'll take this little box . Thanks

Wow ! I know a guy that just sold one like this for 5 Bills ! So this is surely a very good deal indeed. Question ? What kind of amperage would be needed in the motor car for this one ? what would you need to be on the safe side ? Thanks

In conclusion I called RF Limited and talked with Sam Lewis. He told me it will get fixed and send it to The Radio Shop. Chris Holland is the developer of this microphone. Well , at least I did what was asked of me. Cheers to Mr Holland ! , and for the fact that he is a humble man and doesn't...

IMD ? , yes ? I have a Palomar 4 x 1446 box that will show me very close to 500 pep with a 20 pep radio , although it has only been slightly cleaned up for SSB use . IMD ? Now I would bet to say if I put a filter inline with this box I would more then likely lose 100 or so pep watts. I also...

you can set VR13 (SSB ALC) for about 15 watts if you want, but there really is no need. ?????? Just wondering why only 15 watts or less on this dual Mosfet radio ? Maybe I missed something here ?

is that logo what I think it is ? Some bald headed dude getting hit in the head with a D-104 head ? Skullcracka ........what will they think of next ? :wink: would love to se the insides of that one. Thanks

yeap , that was way to much out the box ! I really like the 2970 , my ears tell me a true and pure SSB radio. Although IM not real sure about the N models as of yet ? Apparently they are coming from the factory like this , I know a guy that has been through 4 of the N models over the last year...

well , they sure come in handy when you got a cb radio with alot of extra freq's . They may not be perfect , but they still put you in the ballpark with a decent alighnment on given radio. A step up from reaching in the glove box to find that old worn out freq map and fiddling around with that...

I've been through 4 of these amps over the last 5 years or so, along with being good AB amps. I had two versions with the MRF 454s' and two with the 2290s.......although the 454's did slightly more for some reason or other. Always pretty much the same , 2 to 20 on AM would give me a little...

we who have been in this hobby long enough already know the older 5 pin versions are superior over these newer versions. It's just good to know that the newest of these 148's are better then they were and there's hope on the horizon for this old classic. I thought there was still even better...

This is what was explained to me SW , that the newer ones I have spoke of have done something with that regulator to stabilize it better , or changed it to something else. I honestly don't know about this Robb 148 because it looks like a 08 model , IM no tech , but the tech I deal with pretty...

Hmmmm , well , Cobra sent it to him , cool. Anyway , IM guessing from the label that this radio is possibley a 2008 model , Here tell once again that the newer models from late 2009 to now are being made slightly better , that's what I said , slightly better. But there's alot of old stock out...

Hey Bob ? and your point is ? , many do cap/resistor mods , it don't matter weather the limiter is cut or not , does the same damn thing , I kind of like that cut the trace on the bottom of the board routine :lol: Auh yes , I would call that making ones self feel better about it , or they were...

well LC , I suppose we can only do so much , IM sure we will just have to hear one or get one when they are available. But as I said , anything to replace the 575M6 and the cost they get from those used , would be a pleasure to me. And if they truly turn out to be as good as was said to me ...

Well , if your getting into the radio in the first place , and doing this and that to it (whatever this and that is ?) I would trust that SWR meter about as far as I could spit , and that ain't far. Although it does give a guy something to go on . It goes for the transmit and receiver portion...

Talked with the main designer of this microphone today. And yes it is designed around the 575M6 , although my source asked to me anonomous , he surely knows his stuff. Time and trials from others will have to do in the mean time. Depending on how the radio is tuned and that a person has an...
