Next time I'm on ill try you at 28.420

Really? The band has been in really good shape for several days

Ok I take it back. Was talking until 9pm local time, well after sunset.

Yeah wide open today and yesterday for sure.

Made a couple of contacts on 10 meters today. Quiet around 10 as usual, even though just a few clicks down, freebanders were chatting it up. 38LSB was also jumping too.

Getting ready to put it on eBay.

I've been on a buying spree and this radio has to go. Bought it at the end of this February. Less than 2 months old. 185 shipped in the 48. Contact via PM.

That's interesting.

The younger generation is always more liberal, but as time goes on they get more conservative. What's the sayings? Something along the lines of if you aren't a rebel in your 20's you have no soul, if you aren't establishment by your 30's you've got no brains.

Dude is a punk. Deserved to get his ass kicked. Should be glad that the other driver wasn't older with a pistol as well. Once he pulled it out, he could have got blasted in return. The first person to get out of the car in a road rage situation is usually going to be the one at fault. I think...

No one is claiming anything to do with race. Just pointing out that the circumstances I this case are inconvienent for people like Sharpton who need to find racism everywhere in order to get a pay check. If the roles were reversed in this case, it would make that guy in Florida look like a chump

Because its a shitty job. I'm sure congressional pensions blow that out of the water.

Of course. The race of the victim and perps is a very inconvenient thing.

Seems like the proof would be in the pudding. Some before and after testing should show whether or not the power level stays up and whether or not the audio sounds improved on the receiving end.

Agreed but I suppose it is still possible (at probably way more effort or expense that it is worth). :D Keep us posted. Kind of like the un-crackable safe, it just makes someone want to try harder right?

Unless there is some kind of crazy breakthrough, I think it is what it is at this point. I thought there would be a way to crack it, but it hasn't happened yet, which leads me to believe that it might not.

Just had a 30 minute QSO from South MS to San Diego, CA. Band was wide open but very few people around.

The 257 isn't bad. The receive is excellent. Frequency expansion is super easy if that is what you are into. Puts out a lot of power on AM and SSB. I actually turned my AM pot down so I would only do around 50-55 watts peak when adjusted from full max from the front panel. Without that it was...

Well 11 is wide open again today and there is very little activity on 10. I was working 28.400 and could hear someone down in the mud. I worked them as best as I could with filtering and such but couldn't bring them in. Meanwhile, I hear tons of activity on 27.385.
