    TS-520

    hi, yes it is, and as fasteddy said it require crystal replacement. but the 520 does not have an aux band switch. probably will have to lose 28.000-28.500 on 10 meter. i strongly recommend having a professional do this unless you are capable, i have never done it myself but understand that...

    log periodics

    hi rfoverlord, I have never used one personally but I have read a bit about them and heard a few on air. my opinion of them is that they are not that bad and not that great. That said, I think it is a great idea for 50 mhz and up all band coverage. if you are looking for tons...

    you could take a about a 102" piece of copper wire and solder it to the center conductor of the coax. then you could run some radials off of the shield part of the coax. then you got yourself a 1/4 wave ground plane vertical! not very mobile though. :lol:
