Here you can see the safety latch that is spring-loaded, you are supplied with 100' of Kevlar laced string which attaches to the S-hook so you can deactivate the latch when you need to crank the tower down.

One thing I do before practicing code is have a copy of one of the ARRL code practice sessions at 40 word per minute and listen to it for about 5 minutes. It is perfectly okay if you only understand one or two letters. What you are basically doing is playing a trick on you brain. No practice...
Personally I do not like the looks of it, everything on the front are buttons, I would rather use a menu for certain things. The second thing the band display is to small to be of much use unless they have it setup for external display which I assume they do and will likely charge extra for...
I ordered a brand new Mosley TA-33-M (I think that is the right designator) it is the one with the WARC band capabilities. To go along with it I ordered a new Glen Martin Hazer with the additional guide wheels and heavy duty winch with brake.
Normally I would not have spent this much money...
my guess is these are radios either in use by active military units or reservists. If you di find one of these in the good condition that the two radios appear to be in would likely make the cost of a regular ham radio look cheap. The are spook quality radios use by groups with alphabet type...
According to one of the largest Kenwood dealers on the west coast the radio at Dayton will be a shell radio with no working parts other than possibly display and lights. Release of the actual radio could be as late as the 1st or 2nd quarter of 2013
I have one in my back yard and I am in process of comparing it to the Hustler 6BTV that I already had up. On 40 meters it will eat the Hustler's lunch and steal all its milk money. On 80 meter it is the only antenna I have ever worked DX on for that band and that is with minimal radials as...
I have been checking a large number of Japanese web sites for any word on this and it seem very quite. Last I heard from very good source was that it was going to be a very expensive radio and it was primary going to be a replacement for the TS-2000 i.e. "A Station in Box". I will be at Dayton...
I had purchased and L-Shaped desk to use as a operating station, but even as large as it is I did not have enough room for all of the radio equipment until I made a second shelf for the longest portion of the desk.
I found a local fellow that had some kiln dried 1" cherry planks and was...
Be very careful with that amp, the first time you let it arc or don't dip it correctly it will eat the parasitic choke and about half the other under-sized components Swan used in them. That amp is about the same build quality as an old D&A Maverick.
What I have been able to do over the years is to accumulate a large enough pile of medium priced items bought at a decent price and fix them up and sell them for a profit even if it was only a small profit. Then take that money and put it into the buy a new radio account. After a while you...
