    HT/DUAL BANDER NEW COMPANY

    I just saw this Yaesu FT-2800 on Ebay. And it shows made China also. Proof that all Yaesu's are not made in Japan. Look at the pictures. I really love this little Wouxun HT. I can hit repeaters that the others can only want to hit. It sure out does my 2 Yaesu HT's. And my Icom too! Yaesu...

    RM Italy 203p amp

    I've owned a few of the KL-203 amps. Great amps and I don't care what someone says about input power. DO NOT PUT MORE THAN 2 WATTS DEAD KEY INTO IT. But the 1-1 1/2 watt IS BEST. Any more and you may very well kill your 203. You should see around 100 watts out with the low input. This way it...

    reception question

    The Comet SMA-24 is the very best HT antenna that I have ever used. But they BREAK VERY, VERY EASY. They snap at the base of the whip. And on a dirt bike I'm certain that it will snap off. There are stronger antennas that won't break like the SMA-24. And HT's never have alot of range like a...

    Wouxun KG-UVD1P Review

    Thanks Mo' I'll do a re-install of the drivers. But other than my software issue. This is one SUPER radio. I can hit repeaters that my other HT's can only want to hit. Now I want to do the audio Mod to it.

    Wouxun KG-UVD1P 2m/440 SOS function video

    Thanks,Very good thing to know. It could save your life if you were in a accident where you ran off the road. You could set it to TX SOS. And if you pass out maybe help will still find you.

    Wouxun KG-UVD1P Review

    I have step set for 5.00k. And mine is already unlocked out of the box. The only thing that I've done was trying to program ham band. I'm only trying to program about 60 2m repeaters. I'll add 70cm later. And I can't write to radio. This has happened more than 5 times. It has also happened to a...

    Is a RM KL-60 Any good?

    The KL-60 is a ok amp. It puts out about 45 watts AM, 60 SSB. Good clean audio. But DO NOT OVER DRIVE IT! They only like about 1 1/2 - 2 watts input. Anymore and it may just die.

    Wouxun KG-UVD1P Review

    The programming software seems to be quite a headache. Everytime it tells me that 147.030 is out of range. Then will not write to radio. Can you help with this? I'm running Win XP & the USB cable.

    Antennas for MURS/GMRS

    I know that this is a old post. But a great antenna for both Murs & GMRS. As well as 144/440 Mhz (2m/70cm) is a Comet CA-2x4SR. A Very broad banded antenna. With very high gain. It's also great for the Wouxun HT's BROADBAND VHF/UHF Dual Band Antenna CA-2x4SR: Designed to assist Search &...

    102" stainless whip

    I didn't think that anyone sold the 96" fiberglass antenna anymore. I know RS still sells a very good 102" SS whip for $20.

    HT/DUAL BANDER NEW COMPANY

    I have a Yaesu VX-170 it's a HT. And if you remove the battery and look at the label on the radio it self and on the box. It says made in China. And I had a Yaesu FT-2800m which also was made in China. So you need to read the labels on your radios to see where they were made.

    HT/DUAL BANDER NEW COMPANY

    Some of the Amateur radio equipment made/sold by the big 3 are also made in China. And they still you charge US prices. So at least this way you are getting a good deal.
