Caw canny mate.:D Bruce

...as far as I know, no one has ever been killed by someone walking into a picture theatre, mall or school armed with an illegal 27 meg radio. Seems ironic when you can purchase this , legally??? .... http://thelibertydigest.com/2014/01/24/the-new-ammunition-that-has-gun-owners-drooling/...

It's Australia Day today. A mate of mine in Michigan is flying the OZ flag once more. I'm flying the RAAF flag today off the 1/4 wave vertical in honour of my dad and all the other WW2 airmen I have met here and in the US.

Sounds like he purchased the female version of the radio ;)

Yeah, I think you did, with some input from the Irish and the Scots too.:D My roots go back to Essex in the 1500's and also Scotland. Sledging is a UK past time, some thing you guys do very well, pity you don't do cricket that well.:wink:

You guys don't have the patent on sledging, we've been hanging shit on one another since Jesus was an apprentice. cheers Bruce OZ

Thanks for this. I opened up the mic , and thought, I have no idea what I am doing and then closed it up again. :D Looked a tad brittle in there. There was a hole through the little circuit board and I take it that may have been access to the adjuster??? I wonder if someone has done a vid of...

A little off topic but I am interested in these amps, but have been warned off with purists indicating that they deliver a lot of splatter into other channels, upset the neighbours..etc...Is this the case. If some of these amps act up then is it worth taking a chance with them. Some don't...

Hot rod, I tend to adhere to , if its working don't fiddle, so the radio is the same as supplied. I used to have a 1/4 wave but the 5/8 is far better for local . I had the 1/4 wave on the roof but the 5/8 is so much taller and it has 4 radials, but the performance of this radio is limited by...

Since changing to a Super Penetrator 500 5/8th and decent coax my signals on the transmit and receive are so much better. A friend who lives only a kilometre from me stated that he has never seen my radio peak his meter until recently which coincided with the better coax. The radio has always...

My 45HP is going well. Excellent audio and receive.

a tad high... Workman 103 SWR Power 150 Watt Meter CB Ham Radio 25 50 MHz Mobile No Jumper | eBay :oops:

Cheers Hotrod, Local chatting is good considering that it needs to go higher. I visited a gent last night after work who manufacturers masts and he showed me some telescopic versions. I could mount one on the roof and it will extend to 30 feet. That plus the height of the roof would give...

Antenna is up, guy wires on and mast is about 18 feet . I've been informed that I should look at mounting it higher for extra coverage. There are telescopic masts that could achieve the extra height. Spoke to a gent on the Gold Coast ( South east Queensland yesterday 1700 km) and got...

Normal, not broken...still learning every day.:oops: cheers Bruce

My S45HP is a great radio, strong audio and gets good responses. Yesterday however I noticed it has developed a quirk. When I scroll through the channel frequencies on the 11 metre band I get this: 27.225 27.255 27.235 27.245 27.265 27.275 etc When I change mode to just display the...

I was always under the impression that the Huracan was a prototype , starting in the in the New Zealand market but not being able to get off the starting blocks. Found a similar model on youtube ( I think it is Romania) CB radio HURACAN HR 07 HP - YouTube

Just purchased this 35amp PS. They retail new for over $500 down here and as it is an older model I bought this one for $120 from a friend. It is used but it works a treat.

Been to the US twice now , love your people and country. I must say our Federal governments over the years have been a mixture of semi socialist, middle of the road conservatives and a few right wing conservatives. Each government has value added to our country. Those that are crap policies...

Every 4 years you have the right to choose another President...what a luxury, what freedoms your grand fathers ensured for you during WW2.
