scorpion, go to universal-radio.com then click on there online catologe. on the left hand side you will see short wave antennas/hf. i dont think the old halicrafters does the vhf/uhf (i could be wrong) so the hf antennas will suffice. these are listening antennas. on the right hand side of the...

i bought a ldg z100 auto tuner for my icom 706mk2g and it works great. i bought it from a guy who had lost his job. it was brand new with the icom interface cables. plug and play. just hit the auto tuner button on the radio and it tunes up fast. great little rig. its rated at 125 watts. the new...

does it take a battery or is it a sealed unit. if it takes a battery it might list what voltage it is. then again, with a name like (roadtrip) id go out on a limb and say its 12 to 13.8 volt. some of those things got a power plug just like a scanner. maybe even if you can find a cigerette...

i used to have a galaxy 98 vhp and i had the fans come on when the radio was ( off ). radio was in the sun in my rig. was a realy warm day. so i suppose the fans are on a thermostat type set up. the fans will come on even though the radio is off but has power going to it.

Ok, im trying to set up my 2510 am carrier and power. radio has got the vr-103 (am power) and the vr-107 for dead key carrier. when you adjust one it affects the other and i was just wondering the proper way to adjust this. on all the 2510 type radios i got the vr-103 am power pot is almost all...

ok,thanks guys. the big galaxys,rci,connex,ect the fan will run if the radio gets warm enough with the radio off if its hooked to the battery.

been thinking of putting my 706mk2g in my car and was wondering if the cooling fan on those radios will turn on by just having the radio hooked to the battery with out the radio actually being powered up.?? i had a galaxy 98vhp in my mobile and if the rig was in the sun and the radio got hot...
