    I need an antenna tuner

    I use my G5RV 160 through 20 with 1.1 using my new mfj tuner. I switch and use the Antron 99 for 17 through 10 with 1.1 to 1.3 with tuner. Pretty happy with that! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Desk mic

    I can buy an md-100 for under $100... Was just looking for any other options... Not worried about a radio voice.... Just easier to use with a desk mic than having to pick up my mic ever time I talk.... I don't use my radio for mobile operations... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Antenna question

    I have my Antron up for 10 and 11 meters. The antenna is sitting in the base of a direct tv satellite pole. I want to put my 2 meter antenna up and it would be convenient of I could somehow run the 2 meter on the same base as the Antron is on. Any suggestions? This is what I am working with...

    Echo link?

    Tried echolink last night. Granted I am not on my radio but on my phone... However, it's actually pretty neat. Chimed in on a repeater in Jamaica and another in Pennsylvania. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Pirate SSTV???

    I think it was 20 meters. I have heard "pirate" stations on lower frequencies in the past. 6950 I think? I've never seen this on the 20 meter band before. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
