I ended up trading for a KX3 and have had some great contacts with using just 5 watts. My question is anyone using HDSDR with their KX3? If so did you have issues of seeing a double signal image on the display?
I have switched out the cable thinking noise might be playing a part in it...
Welcome to AM, they look great. Curious what are you using for a T/R switch on the pair. I picked up one of the MFJ switches and surprisingly it works flawlessly and with the delay circuit in it it will also work nicely doing CW.
I would go out and pick up a Kenwood TS-440SAT which is 100 watts and has an antenna tuner, speech processor, you can install an AM filter in it as well they are on Ebay all the time. The big thing is one of the few ham radios that does AM real well and I think output on AM is 25 watts. I have...
I cleaned out a bunch excess junk and sold it so I could make a purchase from a local ham that had two items I was wanting. The first radio is a common Heathkit Apache but the receiver is a not so common item. It is a National NC 2-40D made in 1947 and it works perfectly. You will notice...
I thought you were referring to the Antenna farm about 90 miles from my house. You can check out the real antenna farm here

You can't really appreciate the size until you see it in person.
It must be a plague because one of them followed me home last Saturday as well along with one of the coolest receivers I have ever played with, a National NC-2-40. Pictures to follow. Your Heathkit looks in as good a shape as mine.
Nice job! Wish I could upgrade myself, it is not that advanced is so bad I just want to be able to say I did it. But ever since I had a stroke in 2007 the memory is not what it should be. Seems like by the time I get all of it in my head I need to start over because I can't remember the oldest...
Isn't that the truth, or when you see "I have no means to test it since I am not familiar with this type of radio."
That translates to "I put the golden screwdriver to this POS and now it only lights up and hums loudly."
I saw a Drake TR-4 for sale and in the ad he claimed he had no power...
usually when you see that it is because of the video card drivers or the display size of your screen is not a normal size. For example my monitor has a resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels, but if I change it to something like 1776 x 1000 thing will not line up correctly on that program. So if you...
I don't think I could afford the tubes for this if is using TV sweep tubes like some of them used to. Plus he is asking $550.00 which doesn't seem that high if it works properly. Anyone know what the output on these are?

I agree with the Books to begin with so you know what the questions and the symbols all mean then a site like hamtestonline.com or some of the free test site.
This is so sad, the Elmer that helped me and a friend get our novice licenses told us at the very first novice class we had that he was going to give us an equation and we needed to learn and be able to recite on the spot. Here is the equation.

I was watching a Hustler 5 BTV auction on Ebay and thing that really got my attention is the person was wanting $42.97 to ship the antenna which in mind is a huge amount of money for that antenna. To make a long story short the antenna sold for $142.50 now add the shipping cost and if my math...
if read correctly he is wanting a new radio with a warranty. Personally the radio I would get if I was you is the TS480SAT which is a nice radio for mobile or base operation.
Here are the specs for this radio:
