i dont believe it would suffer my cobra (and im not a fan) allready has wx and works great! but it doesnt have the other blocks or modes and i was looking forward to dx-ing the homeland. on the other hand ive had alincos rigs and yupiteru scanners with huge jumps in mhz and work fine but i...

i know some 0-30 rigs that have wx on hf but i want a typical hi mid lo rig with all mode and wx. maybe you can remove the wx part/board from a cheap used cobra and install into another chassis? maybe 29 into a 148? use the pa switch and maybe swap out a useless rotary for the wx ch change...

hi doc no. im not sure why we keep getting cross wires i am trying to explain that when the coil wire was measured and that lenth added to the whip length it is NOT a 1/4 wave length SO i am wondering if i add a longer coil wire OR make the whip longer so the TOTAL IS now a 1/4 wave i am...

yes kind of but i wasnt thinking of shortening anything rather the opposite the point or rather question i was asking if there is a yes or no answer was do you think by making this antenna a full 1/4 wave by changing either the whip for alonger one or most likley the coil (to keep it a neat...

yawn reactance is the opposition of a circuit element to an electrical current change (or voltage), due to the element's inductance (or capacitance) however if a 1/4 wave ant is 9 feet (aprox) 1/2 wave is 18 feet etc and you can get mobile antennas that are ,,electricaly 1/4 wave,, i dont...
