    Intro.

    My name is Bill I just wanted to say that I like this site. I hang around on a few others but when I need to rresearch or just loaf WWDX seems to be place that is comfy and non judgemental - laid back. My radio experience started in the 1960's as a curious child and a funny thing it's still...

    HR2600 with 12 Meters !!! Nice Rig, only 1 minor problem

    I still have my 2600 I bought new in the early 90's. I put the socket, chipswitch and MRF 497 final along with the upgraded driver. It runs like a champ. Good radio. I don't push mine and can hit what I hear for the most part barefoot with an indoor dipole and D104. It's a great radio and I...

    Madison ( u858) lost AM

    Friend stopped over with a rather gone over Madison that lost AM and USB. At first it started to break up then finally dropped out all together. LSB works but that really isn't much help. Honestly, this thing has seen more cheap screwdrivers than a drunken whore in a Philly bar. It's where I...
