I just acquired on of these with the memory box and what looks to be an MFJ pre-amp/tuner. Really starting to wrap my head around what a piece of equipment I have here.
Said it hasn't been used for over 10 years, I bring it home, hook it up to my IMAX just to see if it still works. :tt1...
If the replacement radio is going to be a hard install like your current You could make a mic plug extension, dismount the side plug from the chassis, insulate and lay it inside the case. The extension wire will still exit the side hole albeit with a tighter clearance and you will still be able...
That's pretty neat. I'm going to have to try it tomorrow afternoon. That's normally when I start getting the west coast in. I've been wanting to try and get someone to video gate so I can see what this 257 sounds like.
I just want to start paying more attention to the antenna I have and maybe build another or two. I have a decent radio now and more than enough wattage I believe, besides I have that Astron 70 and if it can't run it then I don't need it.
I am going to start reading more on antenna design. I...
I've been toying with the idea of going ahead and getting my ticket but, I just cannot afford to get the radio I want right now. So I want to go head and get a tuner that I could possibly use down the line. I also want to start to toy with building my own dipole to use in conjunction with my...
Finally got on my laptop and listened. It must have been something with trying to watch it on my phone. I watched the embedded video here on the board and the audio came out OK. I'll agree that it does sound like YT is sacrificing audio quality for space and bandwith purposes.:thumbdown:
The...
Don't go to tearing into it quite yet. Reading everybody else's posts it may just be because I was trying to watch it on my phone. It may be an issue with YouTube too. Just seems to be me though. I'll watch it on my computer when I get some time this evening.
REALLY glad to see this thread go from "you're wrong, no you're wrong" :bdh: back to discussion and testing. I have been on the fence for a while as to whether to take my Galaxy77 (EPT3600) under the knife and do the diode swap. Not so much the 2SC2999 as it will only see base station use for te...
Neat technology, I'd like to know how it can track multiple speeds simultaneously. Now as for the related videos after watching a few about chicken cordon blue, I'm hungry and have to go get something to eat......
I just picked up a HP version off a board member here. I had an orange light version years ago that I wish I would have never let go. The only thing with this HP version at the damned blue backlighting. Other than that it is an awesome radio. Made quite a few stateside DX contacts in the mobile...
Is there any difference between the 1N6263 & 1N5711? I can't seem to find one place that has both the 2SC2999E & 1N6263. One place says the 1N6263 is obsolete and is replaced by the 1N5711.
Thanks!
