I think he is running a Wilson perch.

I know that the Cascadia has issues with this bus mirrors and doors. Jeep folks that mount there antennas on the tire holder get a great benefit from running a ground from the antenna mount to the frame. Also like Tallman said you will still have to tune it. Hopefully in an area free of...

Have you tried running a ground from the door hinge to the frame? Either flat braid or 8ga wire.

199 can I see the rest of your bench?

Mig welder power supply. It would be just the supply and not the spool, drive, and mig gun(much older equipment). I have seen them on craigslist from time to time but can't find any for an example. Sounds like you are well on you way. Hope you get it worked out.

I really don't think you need to "mod the radio". Try one of the links above(for a frequency conversion) and if the radio is not right: align it or take it to a place that can. They can be good. Will be a drifter on SSB. No hoping up is required. They are hoped up.

How about old mig supplies? Heavy beyond reason and affirmative on 240V.

Affirm Sunbulls. I can get three and they do work, just not exactly the same. Sure if they are way crazy you could a small resistor, not worth the time. I was just in San Angelo TX and the person I was working for thought that he had 3 bad radios. They all worked, just the meters were not...

Well that station is something to behold. And negatory on that 12.5.

Wow we had conditions this evening as well as everyone else. Tried 16 lsb, 30 lsb, and 38 lsb. Made a contact on 38 lsb not qrp. The conditions were close range. Better than none for sure. 17 am blew my ears out 5 above and below. on 30 a quite clean station from south of the border wiped out my...

Affirm.Will keep trying.

May I offer you a glass of water?:sneaky:

As NR mentioned the proper shipping process. 8950's were built to be mil spec. Could be the mind going but, I think I read that somewhere.

8950's are pretty stout. Cracked on arrival right? Not through use.

Well there was the problem aluminum. Tin foil fuse would have mitigated that situation.(y)

Pics show DNA. 73. Great camera.

There were stations talking tonight. I am on an omni under powerlines (bad combination). 805 has had success with 38 lsb in CA. He went to 16lsb a few times and 16AM was killing his ears(south of the border). He had the NW corner contacts.

xm another great reason to give it another go.
