W4EMF - GLA-1000 is this as easy as it seems to be, i mean its straight forward and to the point.. seems like with a few mods it would be a good amp.. anyone have an experience with this? :confused1:

Congrats, this will become a normal occasion soon. :) i know the feeling of my first few DX, i loved it! :lol:

your a real winner, perhaps you should scroll over to 27mhz where your attitude belongs. being a ham is a representation of a code of conduct, you may own your "10-10" however do not OWN or have exclusive rights any frequency, and talking to you is FAR from a privilege. scarring new comers from...

Yeh, thanks.. the hy gain sure sounds better, but no can do. it had to have been thrown away, that's what sucks, i was away in school a long time, these things happen. oh well.

I had two yeasu G450's, during a lightning strike it took out one control box, i took the control box out of the spare one and put it into service, put the now broken control head up to repair later... well.. its later.. and its gone, one way or another i can find it, its gone, and not coming...

The only positive affect i can think of would be if by moving the antenna it is in a more favorable position (previous position was shielded by more metal) other than that the carbon fiber should not have any negative or positive affect to my knowledge. I should add that this can inversely be a...

Some of my small setup not pictured is the 2m/440 gear The empty crankup which was just erected today will hold an 11 element cross polarity 2m yagi for 2m DX (still waiting for gulph alpha to ship) and my 5 element directive systems will replace the 6 meter yagi (waiting for that to ship...

i had one i crushed a few months ago, i haven't used it in about 5 years so im not sure if i will fix it, but i wouldnt use fiberglass body filler, i would use a nice thick weave fiberglass matt, with some resin, and possibly jelly resin, sand the area down well, glass it with several layers...

Barefoot i have over 10 thousand QSO's from every single corner of the globe, with a tribander up 35 feet, and a couple wires for the lower bands.

thanks for the info, will be on the air in the next month or so.

Im down, i skimmed the thread, if its 10m i can promise ill be lucky if i hear past FL, 40m is much better for me. even 80. 10 is open for me once in a blue moon.
