The 27 MHz band was never suggested for RC aircraft, especially since it was AM and adjacent to CB. I think in 1991 the FCC mandated narrow band AM, FM, or other digital mode (PCM) radios be used. My drone operates on two point four gigaherts.

I read that you can do a crude test of the winding form by placing it in the microwave oven on high for a few minutes. If it gets hot, it's not the best material.

Here's one. http://www.bbqu.net/

Um, yeah you can get a $1 cable. Don't expect a lot of copper.

We need the youtube so we can stop guessing. a couple of my radios have drifting birdies

That's neat! (It looks like the diode could be enhanced with an MK484 10-transistor AM radio IC. I discovered this component and just built the reference circuit with good results. I was reading about expanding the frequency response up to as high as 7 MHz.) I still like the concept of a...

I added one more turn to the primary and that brought the frequency response from 540 to 1700 with increased sensitivity at the low end.

I built a fully integrated loop antenna crystal radio on a 23" diameter form (one slat of plastic/wood window blind). I like it because it is completely portable and does not require any additional antenna. 11 turns form the primary and 3 turns the secondary, small gauge phone line stranded...

As long as I can figure it out, it'll be OK...

One other thing I'm seeing is that once I set up a repeater in VFO mode with power set to low and - offset, I save it to CH1 memory. When I switch to CH1 memory, I have High power and both +- offset is showing. I did program the channel twice, the second time with Reverse enabled, and the...

Well, It seems the TDR-AB menu (the one that supposedly lets you set tx priority) is mapped to the same A/B button on the keypad, so changing your A/B setting there also changes the priority (and currently selected frequency bank). With the issue I described above, this makes this setting...

Hi All, I have a Baofeng GT-3 and noticed that when in dual watch mode with the A frequencies set as the active channel, and with TDR-AB (transmit priority) set to A as well, if there is reception on the B frequency and you PTT, you will transmit on the B frequency anyway. Is there a way to...

Critical Thinking At Its Best! Woman: Do you drink beer? Man: Yes Woman: How many beers a day? Man: Usually about 3 Woman: How much do you pay per beer? Man: $5.00 which includes a tip (This is where it gets scary !) Woman: And how long have you been drinking? Man: About 20 years, I...

OK, so my stupid question I thought of when talking on DMR to a guy a few states over... When I transmit to the repeater, my data goes into the web and comes out the DMR repeater over there. How does it know which repeater to come out? Silly me, I guess that is programmed into my radio? that's...

we need more single moms slapping their out of control fatherless sons around.

well, you look familiar. who where you known as, or you claim?

will they scan all the talk groups? Look like an interesting radio. Mr. Fuzz, I'm thinking an inexpensive RTL.SDR with virtual baseband link would work for you? http://www.rtl-sdr.com/rtl-sdr-radio-scanner-tutorial-decoding-digital-voice-p25-with-dsd/

Well, the Mounties are a much nicer group of folk, let's just hope they have no reason to believe you are trying to hide something, be it run away, look away, shove your hands in your pocket, or whatever... There has just been a lot of high profile incidences in this country - if you will, a...

Well, maybe, but I think we should be wary of where that authorization may lead. No, I did not read all of your correspondences, just that one quote seemed relatively portable to whatever discussion you were having. Just the comment you made interested me. I personally do not believe the...
