Will keep trying another day. Conditions were north to south and even a little east this evening(close AZ and ID). I did hear 1 person in northern CA that advised they made many contacts today(much further east than I could hear, AR was the furthest but, could be wrong on that). Probably due to...

Thank you Rob. Happy Fathers Day.

Same here on the west coast. Only hearing folks from AZ.

Have HI talking on 17 am wiping out my receive. Great idea though will keep checking in on 16lsb.

I have been listening for a while and made a couple of calls. Nothing on 16lsb talked to Idaho on 38lsb so we have some conditions.

No, but thank you for offering. I am thinking about an Alinco. 73's.

ST I would love to see the solder side. When you have time. SP5IT so aggressive. PS binging it up slow is on 12v like the ghetto variac. Surprised no one commented on that. We shall see.

ST plug it in to a 12v variable power supply let it come slow and align it. So cool!

good grief. Little Will will work but the others he mentioned are better. A 2 ft firestick with a ground to the frame of 8 ga or braided flat will give amazing results and low swr. I would think with a 5ft length on the 1000 a 3 ft Wilson silver load or a firestick would give great results. I...

So disappointed.

I was looking for 70cm radio. Is this for real? China is digging deep on that name and box.

Uggh that canyon bottom.High KV power-lines overhead in the canyon where my station is located. You have my sympathies 399. Have a blast but, I know I could work those folks that are at my noise level. 73's.

Copy 73's.

I would also defer to other folks on this site to what are the best quality kits/components. Meter what you take out. Meter what you put in. They are cheap and worth the time.

I have been trying to find something on ebay to do a recap on those boards. I have not found it. They are all ranger boards. Should be simple. I will get back to you if I find a kit. PS be dialed in your soldering. You need to be better at desolding than resoldering. Loose no trace or pad from...

So brave I would not buy anything from an entity called softdamp2013. However I did buy a rack and pinion for my sons car from someone with the handle Immmnnutttzz in Utah was the part and brand new for 80 bucks. I seem to lack a memory.

Like fog lights or driving lights on in the day time. They are fine for non verbal communications(do know that some modern trucks are all on). Almost better than the high beams to say it is OK to come on over. Please use them wisely. If you do not have an interrupt to give two blinks to say...

Initial key wait the speak then roger beep. That is how to be an operator. So long it does not go out on transmit. Then work on cadence and intonation.

38lsb is why I wanted to get my ticket(not to mention all of the fine folks in my area on channel 28). Yes there are some folks in southern ca and pheonix area that I could never hear again. Having a CB that sounds good on 11m is fun to maintain Grant, 148, or Texas Ranger 696F(odd because that...

I drive a large car(semi with a lowbed/D6MXLfire dozer on it). Back in the 90's a large car/rooster cruiser had a big sounding radio with a little echo. This has been trampled by young folks with some cash. They have no control and they are the Snap Chat generation and nothing from them comes in...
