Most GE electronics have cryptic date codes on them.

If you leave it up there long enough, it'll turn fuzzy. :D

QRP portable work is kinda fun. :)

In theory, it should lower the takeoff angle of your signal, so you should get better distance. I also plan to setup a dipole antenna close enough to the ground so that it'll work with NVIS.

I don't think I ever had one without the GPK. It hasn't been up on the roof in several years, I need to get back up on the roof and install a few more antennas. I have the A99, a G5RV Lite, 2 dual band 2m/70cm and a 1.25m antenna to get installed. I really need a tower, though. I'd like to...

Greyline is how I got my first ham contact ever in 2008, 10meter ssb to Brazil. Was using a Magnum Omegaforce S45 and an Antron 99 with GPK.

9 and 19 are both a mess.

Uniden's got their AM/FM rig out now, too: https://uniden.com/collections/cb-radios/products/pc78ltx-fm Still selling the PC68 and 78 LTX AM only versions.

I guess the $100 I paid for the 1012 at Dayton was a decent price, then?

I wish he'd go back to the bench. :/

Looks pretty neat. Though, having the ability to adjust the talkback level and other things without the software would be nice. But, I get that they were going for a classic look radio.

Don't forget to look for the silver oxide cells instead of alkaline. They'll last longer.

Yeah, I know... but you can hook it up like a mobile rig. I know HT's are really short range, but you can get some longer telescopic antennas that work quite a bit better.

Looks like there's another AM/FM entry in the CB HT field... https://uniden.com/collections/cb-radios/products/pro538hhfm-cb-radio I'm curious about it. Seems like it comes with enough accessories.

Quick search on fleabay, saw several Thomas radios for $100, so $110 is a fair price for having them at a truck stop.

Need some AM/FM/SSB rigs available (aside from the export ones).

I install NMO mounts in my vehicles. Tram/Browning, Larsen, PCTel/Maxrad all make 11/10 meter base loaded antennas. I've had good luck with both the Browning and PCTel antennas. Clean install. Add a weather cap to keep water out if you have to take the antenna off. I also use Tram 1180...

Those values will vary from radio to radio. That's how they tune for the tolerance in every part in the radio. I know I wrote mine down, and stuck them in the box... will have to dig those out.

Yea, I get it. Though, I was looking at it as an enhancement to his product line that he could offer to everyone that uses his mounts with a screwdriver antenna. And, I see a lot of people using screwdriver antennas.
