    2 Meter Wide Area Repeaters-CA Coastline?

    If you have an Android or iPhone there are apps that will find repeaters close by your current location. I use this one. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zbm2.repeaterbook

    Another commercial radio :)

    I am now picturing Captain Kilowatt in a red suit and hat with an obscenely large chin, riding his horse backwards. :D

    10/11M radio with detachable front panel

    Yeah, I posted it before in another thread. I have a '67 Galaxy I'm slowly, very slowly, building, and was googling in search of a remote mount CB when I found that. For what I want, it will work perfectly. I think however, I would build a cover for the back of the face, and the front of the...

    10/11M radio with detachable front panel

    http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/audio-video/49635-cb-radio-cobra-29-mod-mount-center-console.html I've been wanting to try this, just a bit too busy lately. If you have some soldering skills, I doubt it would be too difficult. Even with a radio with a full LCD display, I think it should be...

    I wouldn't loose any sleep at night over them. They're harmless.

    Cold Solder Joint?

    Wanna talk about fun? My Playstation 3 refused to boot up, the yellow light of death they call it. What happens is the CPU or the GPU starts to pull away from the circuit board. There is a nifty fix online involving heating the area of the chips with a heat gun to get the solder reflowed...

    FCC PLANS TO DROP THE BAN

    I have TV in the home, but have no cable, satellite, or even OTA channels. I pay for Netflix and Hulu. Also have Crackle, but that's free. I pay less per month for those two than the cheapest cable service, and get tons of movies. I get alot of network shows on Hulu and don't have to sit...

    Right to carry past till now?

    It would be cool if they actually had the balls to make a sign like that one for real. Unfortunately it's no more real than this one.

    You were a paramedic, under "Cause Of Injury" is there a box you can check for Dumbass?

    Oh, OK. You meant the ecomentalist idiots. Pedophiles Enthusiastically Touching Animals. Or something like that. Can't stand them either.

    Wow, I'm offended now. What's wrong with People Eating Tasty Animals? :D

    Hustler Mobile HF for 11 meters.

    Well, it all depends on how tall you want the antenna to be. The MO4 I think is a solid rod, like the mast on a Wilson Trucker. With the other masts, I would build one or, I found this one that I haven't tried, yet, but probably will sometime. http://www.dxengineering.com/parts/dxe-mt-54

    Hustler Mobile HF for 11 meters.

    The larger resonator on top of a thin walled 54" mast is SCARY in the wind as well. I ran the smaller resonator for 11 meters, then after I got my license I bought the larger resonator for the bandwidth. I won't do that again. I know it's hard to judge anything about an antennas performance...

    My old friend President Jackson.

    I wouldn't buy a Jacko, or even a 2510 for AM work. I wouldn't buy a Galaxy for SSB work. Radios like the Jackson are built for the SSB crowd, I would bet exclusively. Much the same way a Galaxy is built pretty much exclusively for the AM crowd.
