1 keying tube into 3-6LQ6's into 6-6LQ6's. How do I properly tune this amp? What kind of drive is recommended into it? How much swing will it take? What can I realistically expect this amp to put out? Knobs it has are: Final Tune, Driver Tune, Antenna Load, and a Driver Load. This thing is...

Thanks guys, lots of good advise. I saw one of those c-o-p-p-e-r j poles at the last hamfest down here in December, but was only just thinking about pursueing my ham licenses, and had no idea what I was looking at. Any suggestions on a no frills mobile, capable of the FRS/GMRS bands, or...

Would these radios be called Land Mobile? I found some on the Icom and Midland sites, just not sure if I'm looking at the right radios. I agree that a mobile radio on a power supply is probably the best option...any suggestions as to make and model. I have a couple of power supplies, so...

I know that there are better choices, but here is my question. Is there a small GMRS or GMRS/FRS base station that is worth a d**n? I will be using this at our place in Breckenridge CO. 1/2 way up the mountain to be able to talk to guest at our place who are up on the mountain skiing. Many...

I dealt with D&J. Only one time though. The service was bad, although they eventually had the problem fixed by a third party (who they claimed was their distributor) Did not answer emails or phone calls. When they finally did, they promised a replacement which did not arrive. The whole thing...

A buddy has a TRC 492 and was asking if it could have channels added. Anyone know if this is possible? Different radio is not possible for him right now, so any info on this particular radio is appreciated. Thanks

Has anyone used one of these? How well do they perform? http://cgi.ebay.com/THE-BEST-CB-BASE-ANTENNA-1600-WATTS_W0QQitemZ5865395675QQcategoryZ1501QQcmdZViewItem

Not much FM action on this side of the pond. I do look for it though. Have made 2 FM contacts including one to a fellow in Manchester on 26.515FM If you want to try a contact on FM or any other mode, let me know and I will give a listen.

Shady, I have two S9's, one as a Base Station, and one in the mobile, and they both have the best results with the mic gain set between 1 and 3 o'clock. Try setting yours there for a good start point, then adjust, based on reports from others. You will really enjoy the S9!

I e-mail the FCC a couple of months ago on this very subject. Believe it or not...I actually recieved a reply after about 2 weeks. It stated that ALL of those records were destroyed in the early 1990's. Would have been cool to get a copy of my paper.

I have aquired a Kris Mach 3B in pretty decent shape. Downloaded an owners manual and it does not say what the output is. Anyone here have any info on this amp? Are they any good? This was paired up to a Johnson 223 base radio with a Turner plus 3 mic FWIW. The radio and mic work, but the...
