    DAWIA MODEL NO. SUGGESTIONS

    I really don't want to sound like I'lip flopping but I'm gonna do research on that mfj digital meter. I thinks it's a true pep reading meter but I'm not sure. I've read many reviews on mfj products and if my memory serves me right there nothing to get excited about. The one feature I like on...

    DAWIA MODEL NO. SUGGESTIONS

    You are correct 399. Shipping isn't included. But an Added 30-$50.doesn't fall under the bubble buster experience for me. Bubble buster experience at least for me, happens when I wine and dine a beautiful 25 year old. Then take her home and all she wants to do is blow me for 5 hours because...

It's about 30 lbs and wouldn't be worth taking up all that real estate. These an ebay seller who sells...

    A99 VS. I MAX CHOICE AT IMPROPER HIGHT

    Any roof mounting or house install, is out of the question. This is why I mounted my antenna the way I did. I did mention in one of my postings it was mounted on a tripod. I said tripod because many people don't know what a non penetrating roof mount is but that's exactly what my antennas...

    DAWIA MODEL NO. SUGGESTIONS

    Captain. I did learn from my op that true pep reading meters require a power supply. I didn't quite understand the type of power supply that was being referred too. Now that I do, would purchesing a cross needle meter that doesn't read true pep be any different than the workman meter I own? If...
