I first tried using CW Decode using a pre-recorder WAV file. It didn't work so well although I'm not terribly sure I had it configured correctly. I loaded MultiPSK on to my computer and looked like a good solution. Unfortunately the free version will not read WAV files. Takes $45 license and at...

Yep your right. In LSB the center frequency is 28.246Mhz. I'm just scratch the surface of knowledge of such things but don't you need a two tone generator to realign. Sending the Optima back and forth to New Zealand is just about the cost of the radio so that's not an option. I assume if I find...

I found this beacon which must be close to me because I hear it clearly all the time. I believe it is this one: 28.244 WA6APQ C LONG BEACH, CALIFORNIA # 30W, VERTICAL Here is a recording: https://youtu.be/mxsKe7ZWQ4Y I just do not understand morse code so I can't tell. I tried a PC based...

Glad to here your experience with the BC907 mic. Maybe it is not the best idea. If I make an error connecting the receiver audio and kill the Optima, there's no fixing it. I looked at the ZOXN ZX-777 but the frequency it operates on maybe a problem. I have not found any others.

Okay, this radio sounds workable. It's surprising how difficult it is to find room for transceivers in these small, older trucks. Anyways if I come up with anymore questions I'll start a new thread...this is kinda off topic. PS. I passed my Tech license test with a 100%...can't wait to get my...

That was quick, thanks. I only have 2 " of space under the truck seat. Can the main unit be mount to the carpet floor or would ventilation holes be covered? Or would it be best to re-drill the bracket to have 1/4" clearance top and bottom?

Hello, I'm taking my HAM test this Saturday and am think of buying the IC-2730a as my first mobile rig. I plan to mount the main unit under the seat of my truck but there not much clearance there. Can someone tell me the height of the IC-2730 with the MFB-4 mounting bracket installed. Thank you
