Surprised me that it came that fast. I ordered it on a Tuesday morning around 6:00 am. DHL delivered it at 5:00 pm on that Friday. It left the UK to Cincinnati then here.

Ordered mine on a Tuesday got it on Friday. Customs was not an issue. Super fast shipping and tracking updates throughout the day. get it from the place that offers the fee speaker. :whistle:

Couldn't agree more.. that's why I like Wes at GI Joes. He took the time to exchange e-mails and answer questions as well as phone calls prior to the sale. Actually talked me out of a more expensive radio to meet my needs more. The folks at Galaxy are super to deal with too. I know on two...

Hate to hear that. I thought they were knock offs just by the pictures I've seen of em.

My dad had a black cat amp back in the late seventies. Are the new black cats the same company? I was just a kid at the time but I do remember that amp. JB 75 modulator? Does that sound right? I'm going on the memory of a 12 year old kid so I'm most likely wrong on the model number but it sounds...

GI joes problem solved! When I first started dealing with GI Joes I sent Wes an e-mail on a Saturday morning asking questions. Wes responded back with answers. Swapped e-mails a few times that day and on Sunday morning I made the order via online. Radio arrived Tuesday. He also answers the phone.

I've typed out the model number under search on their website and the product will show up that way. it has to be exact though. Example kl503 won't show up but kl-503 will. At least the last time I visited there it worked that way. Should work that way on other amps I would think. They are...

On my kl503 I only get around 250 on AM also on sideband. I don't get anywhere near 450 watts. Not complaining though. that's with a cheap Radio Shack meter. doesn't matter which radio I use with it it just doesn't go over 250 watts according to the shack meter. Galaxy 99v2 Uniden 980 Grant 2...

As always great answer. Much appreciated. I have my 980 at 2 watts and to be honest was a bit concerned it was too much. I turned it down to 1 watt one time but it screwed with the meters. "Rf fail" and showed crazy swr readings even though I knew the swr was very low on an external meter...

Midland 77-104 Midland 77-104 circa 1986. Only because it was the first real radio I owned. My first was a junker I bought from Walmart for $49.00 called road master. It came with a cheap mag mount antenna. after buying the cheapie from Walmart I got more interested in the hobby and found...

I've watched a few videos from this guy "CMH electronics" I think is what the video is labeled. He has paired a few 980's with kl203 amps. If I'm not mistaken he set the DK to 2 watts in one video and set the DK to 3 watts in another video to drive those amps with. He also mounted the amp to...

I've got the 980 and the grant 2. for whatever reason the 980 has better sideband receive. As far as white noise that is. I may have gotten a bad grant I don't know but with my grant the white noise on sideband is more like electrical spikes rather than a good solid white noise. even with the...

He's sitting in the car using a handheld

I thought it was pretty good info myself. I bookmarked it.

I like mine better than my galaxy 99v2. It's in the closet now. The noise blanker could be better when in sideband mode though. I like the channel changing ability you have with the mic.

The videos seem to be disabled by the owner. Is this the same snake that takes brand new radios and tells the customer that the radio is not up to par from the factory and spins the radio around in circles and slams it around a few times then replaces all the capacitors because the factory ones...

I don't see $650.00 in that amp. If I'm spending that kind of money The only owner it's gonna have is me because I'm buying straight from the dealer.

Sirio 5000 in a 7/8 drilled hole 5/8 inch washer to cover 7/8 hole. actually beneficial because it provides a little stability under the antenna base.

K40 is a 7/8 inch hole. Keep in mind if you ever get a sirio 5000 it uses a 5/8 inch hole. may not seem like much but it is. I had a k40 at first then bought the sirio 5000 later. I had to use a washer under the rooftop because of the difference in hole size. As far as the Wilson's hole size...

Friday 5-9-14 The only dx I have gotten today is 42 in Texas on 27.385. Thought he was a local guy because he was the only station all day. loud and no noise coming in with him. I give him a shout and he came back said he was in San Antonio. after the qso I listened to him talk to another...
