    predator 10K Question

    Well. I bit the bullet. I just ordered a Predator 10K (K-1-27). Cost a lot but, after all I've read on here, I have to see for myself how this antenna out talks a 102" SS Whip so badly. For the money I just spent, I dang sure hope it does!

    LMR 400 vs standard RG8X

    I'm not a wealthy Man myself. But, I do scrape and dig for good coax when I need it. Although from what I've read, if not for the slight difference in loss, RG 213 is almost as good as LMR-400. LMR-400 may be better in a 100 ft run because of loss, but I've only read that here. I've no...

    ads going crazy,,,

    The ad blocker in the browser I'm using does a very good job. I had forgot about it until now. I use the Opera browser and after turning the built in ad blocker on, I have 0 ads on this site now. Great ad blocker.

    My old truck

    I drive a 2002 Ford F-150 4x4. I bought it when it had 29,000 miles on it. I've had it since 2005 and to this day only have 143,000 miles on it. Still runs great and looks pretty darn good for the age. Nope, not no new one in my future either. Just gonna put a little money into new shocks...

    Hustler HQ-27 CB Antenna – Obsolete or a forgotten Gem???

    Old post but, I own one (Hustler HQ-27). It does talk good but, my 102 ss whip and sirio performer 5000 blows it away.

    Engine noise

    I ran a ground wire, 8 gauge, from my battery negative post to the alternator bracket/bolt. Didn't solve everything but, it helped quite a lot. Just a thought.

    Got my President Lincoln

    Well, I received my President Lincoln ll+ and it seems to be doing really well. Was told by a couple truckers it sounds really good and clean. Walcott sent a letter with it saying they tested it with a scope and something else but can't remember what they called it. Will have to dig the box out...

    Taking bets on where Fine Tune pops up next

    Thanks. I don't know why but I had him pictured in his late 60's for some reason. He is an arrogant one I agree. He must have money to move and live all over the place. (Must be from those who never got a radio when ordering one or, those who sent in a radio and money and never got it back)...

    Taking bets on where Fine Tune pops up next

    How old of a feller is Fine tune? Doesn't he know any better? Has he never grew up? I've seen a few of his videos, heard him bragging but, other than that, just what I've read here. Just how old is the guy? Anyone know?

    New president lincoln 2

    Just got a text message saying my President Lincoln ll V3 will be delivered today. Will immediately send it to Stu in Clyde NY at https://dxradioshopny.com and have the alignment checked and get the best and cleanest modulation possible out of it. So, it will be another few days before I get to...

    How to wire radio into mobile

    An oldie but a goodie! Looking for the old "golden Shovel", again. On mine I ran the power directly to the battery positive and the ground to a bolt under the hood that goes straight into the front driver side fender. Works great. Never a problem. (Especially if you get into the habit of...

    11 meter is very quiet?

    Made a good copy this morning with the 452 in Southern Cal from here in South Central Mo this morning while sitting in the drive through at Hardee's.

    President Richard stock mic substitute

    "There’s a menu function to choose either electret or condenser type microphones." Does the new President Lincoln ll V3 also have this option? Can anyone let me know?? Thanks.
