    D&A Phantom 12 tube promotion to Warrior high drive 2017

    Would a second alternator be out of the question? The car audio crowd has some nice options for high output alternators.

    Need some amplifier advice.

    I understand your disgust but I would never replace Toshiba's with those if I had a choice. They aren't direct replacements either.

    Need some amplifier advice.

    I have the same amp. You'll be happy with it. I've talked all over the country with my 250 and 108" whip mobile. I used it with my base setup and talked further with a horizontal dipole. Don't try to squeeze every watt from it and it should last a long time. If you're going to use it on am, make...

    With any luck, I'll be making a move to knoxville TN soon. There are a few people here in town that are disappointed I'm moving but they understand getting out of hellinois

    So what does everyone do for a living?

    I bleed and sweat to repair neglected automobiles for yuppies and the middle/lower class customers. In other words I spend thousands (50k so far) of dollars on my own tools to make money for a CEO I rarely see. Mechanic AKA technician. The lines have blurred so far between the two. I'e met many...

    I could really use some help please

    I'm glad to have run across the other site years ago. I did learn some from the members there. I'm much happier that I found this site though. There is a lot of knowledge floating around here. Much more than I could provide but that's why I like it here.

    I could really use some help please

    I was absent from the radio scene when he shut down. He used to be a big deal on another forum. When I signed back in years later, he was no longer a sponsor and no recent posts. It seemed strange to me as the owner of the site and Mike seemed inseparable. I did buy a Texas star 250 from him...

    I could really use some help please

    As far as I know RA radio is shut down. Repeating what I've heard about his radios would be gossip but I will say that I wouldn't buy a SWP radio unless it was extremely cheap and I wanted to change it back to stock.

    Good to hear. Just out of curiosity, where did you get your 250? I thought I heard they were discontinued.

    Need some amplifier advice.

    Is your antenna a mag mount or solid mount? In my experience, I would make sure my antenna is in top notch condition before adding power. As far as your charging system goes, you should be fine with a small 2 pill. Anything more than that and I would look into upgrading the electrical.

    WTB: Galaxy DX 95T2 and Cobra 200 GTL

    I bought a cobra 200 brand new and it arrived DOA. Sent it back to cobra and it came back in operating condition. I hooked it up long enough to trade it off to a trucker for a grant lt and some cash. I thought it was a cool radio but i didn't want it to give up the ghost on me. Enjoy it, I hope...
