    Road devil power mic.

    I have an Astatic 636 4 pin and have can get a deal on a Road Devil power mic. Is there anything to gain? With todays new radios (mic gain control) is it even necessary? Also do they make that power mic in (non) flamboyant red? Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk

    Uniden wireless

    I like this wireless mic but does it make you sound to amateur? Can you have a selector switch to have 2 mics connected so when you want to be low key you can flip switch and when you want more power switch to a power mic or do you have to keep plugging and un plugging? Sent from my SCH-I535...

    So if the needle pegs switch to 100w setting and lets say its 100 watts the needle will be on the "1" in 100w mode? What does the F.S scale on the bottom of both meters mean? Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk

    Its an astatic pdc2. I only have a 10w/100 switch and a fwd/switch. The knob on the side will allow me to set swr scale to the set position but the watt scale I see no way to calibrate it even tho it had a set notch on the scale just like on the swr meter Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk

    Does swrs effect reception as well

    I had placed the magmount near the front edge of my trunk lid. I am going to move it out to center. Also my coax is about 18'ft long. I have it just strung out in the vehicle since I wasn't sure how to run it. The distance from my radio to antenna is about 9 feet. Should I route my antenna coax...

    cobra 29 lx

    No I think you need to read what I said. I did not make any derogatory remarks about the repair facility. I merely stated that maybe he should of ask that question before he made a purchase. Ie, buying a car and going home then asking people if the dealership and the car are of any quality. As...
