I am running a Nugatron on my vehicle now. You can tell them from other open coil antennas by the engraving work on the shaft and the antenna is almost seven feet tall. And they are very well made of solid aircraft grade aluminum and actually is a very light antenna. Best mobile antenna I have...

In my 48+ years experience with antennas I have found that when a 102" whip has a high swr 1.6.1 or higher it is usually due to the radiator being grounded or to much of the antenna below a metal object such as a tailgate or mounted to low on the fender. Most likely the whip is grounded through...
A Ham radio friend of mine just passed away and They want me to try and sell his PDL-11 along with the instruction manual and a large heavy duty rotor and all of the cable and switches. If interested send me a message on the board here and I will give the particulars. This antenna is in very...
Sorry gentlemen but I was made an offer I couldn't refuse, The Moonraker 6 mobile is no longer available. As quick as that one went I wish I had several more :biggrin:
moonraker 6 mobil
I do have a Moonraker 6 Mobile antenna but it is not a mag mount It was purchased a long time ago but was hardly used. been in storage since the 80's still looks new.
I have been in two way radio since the mid sixties and never got into ham seriously until last year. I am proud to be a ham operator but I still enjoy CB also. My opinion is that there is room for both. And I agree that there are bad apples in ham just like CB, but it is just something we have...
A wilson trucker 2000 or even a Radio Shack base loaded 64" whip will match under 1.5.1 on both 10 and 11 meters if it is mounted on the roof. I have been useing one just for this reason for a couple of years. The RS 64 inch baseloaded whip is by far the cheapest way to go and it is still a...
Try to do this with the Phillipines 148, channel "mod's more than one from 26.030 to 28.580 with less than a two watt variance from bottom to top. I won't go into complete details but the RCI 148f can be unbelieveably modded if you know all of the little secrets. I tried this on a Phillipines...
I have a 148 that has a galaxy 6 digit freq counter that looks exactly like the texas star you posted. I have the female plug mounted on the back of the radio and the counter is velcroed to the case for easy removal if needed. seems to be a good :thumbup1:setup
I have two 1994 Cobra 148's that have Mfg. by Ranger on the board.:thumbup:
. The RCI-made radios (identified by "Made in Malaysia" [148F] Probably the best of the 148's ever produced. I think they are far superior even to the uniden Mfg. ones
Thanks hotrod, I have been in radio for almost fifty years now and I am not sure I like the migration to surface mount components though. I have several Cobra 148's that were made by ranger and a couple by uniden and they are not bad to work on at all. But some of the newer disigned radios can...
I have two 158EDX radios and they use the 6900 board. These are outstanding radios. I also have a galaxy with this 6900 board but the components in the galaxy are not near the quality the RCI brand uses on these boards.
here is the best discone I have ever used and there have been a few. This one is all stainless steel, no aluminum. It does come with coax but I use a little better grade. http://www.memphisamateur.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=315 This antenna actually performs very well on 2 meters.
