Maybe you could hook up a random length wire of over 80-100 feet and drag it behind the truck! That is a tough situation, I am not sure if CC crane has what fits the bill, but I have looked over some of their products before and it looked like pretty good stuff to me. If I remember right...

Hi jonbah, not sure if you checked this out or not but here are some reviews for the 480SAT on eham.

Hi CDX8412, I checked out the Morse Academy overview, and I am not sure if I fully understand it. What I gather is that it sends you characters and displays them on the screen. I am not a real big fan of that, because you hear code; you don't see it. This may be a "quick and dirty" way...

Nice SW, thanks for sharing. It may be useful to use when learning code too. If you are learning code I like the G4FON software, it is a free download.

We still have the bad summer storm to look forward to. The best thing next to handling frozen metal is dodging lightning bolts. :D

I gotta agree - who wants to push up a metal mast in above freezing temperatures?

www.kenwood.net/ has manuals on it too, I believe.

I bet if someone got in on open lines they could sneak a plug in there. :twisted:

That's ok, I know what your talking about! :wink:

I figured they'd be using a VHF repeater. Maybe they couln't get permision. :shock: I'll have to listen for them.

Re: What radio? I had a TS-440 a while ago. Only thing I'll say is that if you are buying it used make sure you know everything about it. Nothing against most CBers but some do have a tendency to take a decent radio and turn and clip things they shouldn't. I've been there, so I'm a little...

The radio is pretty cool, but what about his antenna! here is a link about it. It's an old link but you get the idea. He tuned it in a helicopter. :lol:

Hi all its been a long time since I've been on the forums. I have a Magnum Delta Force that just recently died! First, it began with the LED's burning out, then it started to transmit a little off frequency, now it won't work at all! I am wondering if this became a problem with this radio...

Well....after an afternoon and evening of pure misery of putting up our buddies Moonraker 4 it was a real kick in the balls to find out the SWR was over 3. here's the thing tho. 2 years ago when we put it up it did the same thing. a wind storm came through and the SWR went down to 1.5-1.8...

i wired my astatic d104 knight eagle for it and initial reports on AM is "crap." hehe i know this is a good radio just need help finding a good mic combo... this is my first rig like this....1 more question is the speech processor supposed to be ran on AM? does it sound like crap on AM...

I think i've got everything in ok except for the +12 volt source for the board. It says near where the radio is turned on there should be a +12 volt source?? I need a little help with this, not sure what to do. <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/ohwell.gif ALT=":">...

try pushing in the "function" button and then hold the "call" button for about three seconds. if it's one of the older 257's that should take you to the 11 meter freqs. this will have to be done most likely everytime the radio is turned on. in the newer ones all you have to do is tap the...

lol, I had a Vectronics one I got from radio shack a while ago seemed to work ok. The filter itself has to be grounded though or it's not doing any good. <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"> ----------- 27.365 LSB 27.385 LSB 2TX949 WV949...

don't know sir, but I was wondering what kind of board it uses? See if it says on the board anywhere and let us know. ----------- 27.365 LSB 27.385 LSB 2TX949 WV949 YG949 </p>
