Thanks Mudfoot! A+ seller

Well poop. That's not in the US. haha

Thanks! I can make contacts barefoot in the mobile fairly easy on most days and I FINALLY made a contact to needle bender 68 but on the base. I just think the antenna being inside is restricting me. I'm going to put another dipole on the roof. My current dipole isn't really ready for rainy...

I would love to get him under the hood of mine! The radio looks terrible and is developing an issue somewhere around the mic connection, but when it works, it talks. It will retire to a base rig by next week.

Thanks! I cut the cord off of a broken surge protector the other day and my girlfriend looked at me like I was retarded.. I knew it was going to come in handy, now I just have to remember where I put it! Do you have a link to the 50amp?

Right now I'm using a Dipole I made and put it in the attic. The SWR is 1.1:1 on 38LSB. As for a radio, I'm using my DTB tuned Galaxy 959 or a Sears Roadtalker 40 SSB(it kicks arse). I have a Magnum 257 coming in Monday but I'll be using it in the mobile. The antenna is running west south west...

Well my mobile will be back in my truck this evening so hopefully I'll be able to participate! I tried to get out on my base again last night, but it just doesn't seem to be making the trip.

Reviving an old thread of mine! Does this picture work for you? I can get more if you'd like. I broke this radio back out and have it in my new truck but would love to get this thing fixed up!

Well I ordered one of these units last week friday and it should be here this coming Thursday. What kind of power cord do I need to find for it?

Consider it sold as soon as you send me your paypal info.

Dang. I've got to get a better base setup! I haven't made a single contact on it. I'm hearing 696 needle bender and a few other guys but they are very faint.

Typo! I have RG8x on everything, including the jumpers. I've got some Certified Quality RG8-x and DX Engineering 'brand' RG-8x. I'm sure these aren't the best, but I've been using the CQ RG8-x in my truck for a while with the TS500v with no issues thus far. So turn the radio DK down to 1w and...

Lucky duck! Nice radio!

Thanks fellas. We'll 100 watts isn't cheap for me because I'd have to buy a dual final radio since I don't have one or find a smaller amp. Haha I could possible turn my DK down to one watt and turn down the overall power on the radio to tame the TS500v. Or is loafing the amp just as bad as over...

Yeah, I'm not doing much to this truck. I put a leveling kit on it Saturday morning but I'll probably leave the engine stock. I spent thousands on my 24v cummins so that's my Horse power toy. I'm having trouble finding a place to mount a radio in my new truck. If my radios didn't have a side...

I recently purchased a 2013 4x4 F150 EcoBoost and I must say it's a completely different animal when compared to my 1999 compound turbo Ram 2500. With that being said is there anything to worry about when running fairly large amps in these new trucks? I've got a TS500v that I'd like to put in it...

Thanks guys! Well he is very slow at responding to text messages and I mean very, but here is the ad listing. "Cobra Base Station, mod. GTL148 with ssb. Comes with (2) D104 chrome models, desk style base Power mics. All in excellent condition. All hard to find pieces. Will through in a...

Found a 148 GTL on Craigs list, but it's listed with some other equipment and has no price. I texted the guy about it and he said it's all stock and in excellent condition. What are they worth? I saw a slightly modified one in the classifieds for 100 bucks shipped, so I'm assuming this one would...

It is diamond plate but the old was too. With the old box I could get my SWR to nearly flat on all 40ch. The only difference is that the old box was bolt to the floor of the bed and the new one uses J hooks that clamp under the rail. I'm going to try to ground the toolbox to the bed and see if...

I've got a 5' Silver load and it used to have flat SWR but no longer does. I switched tool boxes on my truck and the only thing I can thnk of is that this new box isn't grounded well enough to the bed/frame? I hooked up the grounding wire on the silver load and my SWR doesn't change.. It's...
