    Henry 2.5KW Amp

    Wish I could scoop this up. The parts alone are worth $1300 On a side note, Heavy Hitter, welcome to the site and try to realize we get ALOT of spam and scam here. So please exercise a bit of humility with some of the skepticism from the "seasoned" vets. WELCOME TO THE SITE!!!

    If you turn the Amp on and dont key it, Does it get VERY red? Or is it just when keyed, and it goes away after you unkey?

    Palomar 450 FET

    PM replied Hey Tony!!! I used it for about an hour to help a friend come up with a better bias tune setup. Basically I tested it stock, ran some quick figures and tried some diff. value caps. With the new values, we achieved the same output numbers but with less drive. However, the gain...

    I liked my 847 well enough, but for HF, the rxer was lacking horribly.

    MFJ-998 1500 Watt Automatic Tuner Review

    How is the tuner as far as loss? I currently use a ten tec 238b. Very good tuner that tunes everything and has minimal loss.

    Building new shack/qth.....Suggestions

    I must be one one lucky SOB. My XYL wants my room to be in the house. When I was stationed in florida I had one of the bedrooms as my mancave. I brought up the idea of having my shack in an upstairs appt above the detached garage, and she said she would rather me be in the house where I...

    Building new shack/qth.....Suggestions

    Thats pretty good ideas! I didnt think about varying height of receptacles..hhhmmmm The corregated pipes might do the trick to. i just wish the proposed tower wasnt 350feet away. As it looks now, Im running 1/2" hardline, might use 7/8 and be done with it. $$$$$$

    Building new shack/qth.....Suggestions

    I dont think the xyl will let me put up plywood in the house, But I might build some sound deadeners. There will be no closet in the room, and my amplifier is a desktop amp with blower built in. Ten Tec 425 and yaesu 2100b. now if I get around one day to building my 3cx3000 160-10/6 meter...

    Building new shack/qth.....Suggestions

    I was doing that to keep the ground feed as short as possible and help elimante possible ground loops/rf hotspots. If not there than maybe on the outside edge of the foundation. The tower will be grounded too. What do you suggest and why? And why not that way?

    Be on the lookout for a new RANGER EXPORT

    I persoanlly would like to see a 10-160 rci that is still capable of the high level AM Audio. Even if it looked just like the RCI 2950/70 Id still probably buy one.

    Be on the lookout for a new RANGER EXPORT

    I cant say much about it, But ranger has just released a new radio based on the 2950dxpcb that is a base station. The difference is the size(smaller than a galaxy 2547) and the face is more like an Icom with a touch screen. It will be low power "35-40watts" and in the mid to upper $500 price...

    RCI-2950

    It could be a few things. 1. Take the button board off and clean it thourghly. maybe even check to see if there is constant continuity across that button making it seem as though someone is pressing it. theres a chance some solder/metal flake have contaminated it. 2. The back up battery...

    Problems with NEW RCI 2970n2..

    Not to my knowledge. Galaxy uses the same PA and they had the same issue but they caught it sooner and added the feedback network. It is Very easy to spot if you take the cover off the PA. Just look to see if there is a PCB bridged across the input/out transformers. Here is a picture with...
