    Using the rci-2950dx on cw question

    Hmmmm, could actually be the speaker itself; the material may not be as taught as possible, thereby causing a "thump" as you say. Have you tried either: A. - An external speaker or B. - A set of headphones plugged into the external speaker jack .... just to see if you still hear...

    Difference(s) between SS-3900 and 148 GTL EX

    Anybody have a photo of the REAR of a 148 GTL EX (not DX, but EX) and/or a SS-3900 sans freq ctr jack that they could post so that I may compare? Thanks:)

    So what you working on?

    Nice CLASSICS there Radio Tech. I just dusted off my old HW-100 and put it on the Geratol Net (no pun intended!) on 3.668 this evening to see if it still worked. Worked FB, so probably will be putting up on eBay. I also checked out my old HW-16 and HG10B and they are putting out a strong...

    K40 speech processor

    Never found anybody who was able to get one of these things to work PROPERLY on anything other than a K-40 Model 7 radio (the tiny one), however, for what it was, that little rig sounded pretty good on AM. I myself, used to own a K-40 Model 8 (rare) radio, which was pretty much like an old...

    Difference(s) between SS-3900 and 148 GTL EX

    I recently purchased a radio that, on the OUTSIDE front, appears to be a Super Star 3900 (single final), but on the rear, does NOT have the external frequency counter jack like virtually ALL of the SS-3900 and SS-3900GHP's I've owned in the past. Not only that, but when I opened the radio...

    Mobile Antenna Options

    I like the door jam mount options you are considering; Diamond and Comet (among others) make some pretty robust mounts in that particular configuration. The higher you mount it, the better. I prefer these sorts of mounts over ANY magnet mounts, as you can actually 'ground' to the car body...

    Have you ever had a RANGER Radio Pulled from E Bay?

    Funny story: About 10 years or so ago, I purchased a used HR-2600 WITH Chipswitch on eBay, just for the purposes of checking out the capabilities of the Chipswitch, as I presently had an unmodified HR-2600. After getting the radio home, I found out that it was somewhat of a 'hack job'...

    help choosing an antenna

    My first choice, although unwieldy, would be a Sigma 4000, LW-150, or whatever name they go by nowadays. If money were not issue, I'd get a Zero Five 5/8 wave. Another great antenna (if you can find one, and if $ is not an issue) would be the Wolf .64 wave. However, since money and...

    update on $50 superstar 3900g
