Thanks mackmobile43! Yourself and 9c1driver seem to get what im askin about. Everyone else just seems to confuse even more. You think the cobra 29 with the variable dk at the lowest would be ok?

:bdh: So far, after the first 2or3 replies, everyone is trying to correct the last post they read instead of the real question! I KNOW THERE IS NO CARRIER ON SSB! Never said there was, just said i was considering TS500 because i had a RCI2950. (Can use the amp with both radios)! The radio in...

Told you i got some learning to do, then average and PEP. Either one, which do they talk about when talking amps, what they will handle and not handle?

It does an RFX75 thingamabobber on it. (PEP) is always more than (RMS) and im not sure how most amps are rated, when they talk about a 1-2w carrier,and let it swing! Is it in (PEP) or (RMS) Im new to amps, so i got some learnin to do. I also have an rci2950 (non dx) and will use the amp for...

ok thanks alot i would keep the radio turned down on power, just didnt want to blow it if the knob got bumped or needed a little more drive.

cobra 29 lx le .5w-5w DK, (RMS) and swing 18w-30w (RMS) 5w-15w DK (PEP) 45w-75w (PEP) Will the TS500V handle this kind of power? My Ram 2500 Cummins produces 14.4v thats why the radio does a little more.

Hey moleculo, when i bought my ftm350r, it came with a cable to download the new software. Is this the same cable needed for the programming from G4HFQ program?

Looks like a texas star has the vote. Thanks

Hey guys, got the 29 lxle w/rfx75 fixed up! keys 1w-5w swings 25w (RMS), and keys 3w-14w and swings 85w (PEP) Nice drive for a 4 pill, i think.

Based on users of both a Palomar, and Texas Star which would you use if only had to choose one? And dont forget about SSB use! Palomar Elite900 HD, or Texas Star 500V?

This is what i found, Im thinking about one also, OR texas star 667. Palomar Elite 900 Two 2SC2290 Drivers Four 2SC2879 Finals Designed for radios with under 35 watts (approx) Recommend: <4 Watt Deadkey APPROX 400-500 WATTS RMS

From my experience (current) my RFX75 is on a cobra 29 lxle, and it has been a headache! I DEFINATLY WOULD NOT RECOMMEND ONE! Buy an amp. Wish i had.

ok thx for the input, as long as it works, thats all that matters. Keep dxing!

Hey 999, Thats what i dont understand. The numbers are higher on a dummyload at 1.0:1 swr. But its not being operated in the vehicle on a dummy load, the antenna has a swr of 1.3:1 on all 40 channels. So it doesnt have a 10w DK as on the dummy load, it has a 4w@14.2 on an antenna, and a...

Thx everyone for the advise. I definately am dissapointed all together with the radio. Could be the tech at Epoweramps.com. On further check of the radio, it DK`s 4w channel 1-25, 3w channels 26-30, and 2w on channels 31-40. BUT it still swings 25w, thats all with the engine running (14.2v)...

thx loosecannon ,i will get a bigger wire Ratso8 this is just (am) only radio

:confused1:Does anyone know which amp i could use, I`m looking at texas star or palomar. Don`t want to run extra batteries. But would consider (1) maybe! Alt is 136 amp. I have a 29lxle with a RFX75 @14.2v I`m seeing a variable dk of 0.5-4.5w and swing to 20-25w RMS on a dosy 4001 . The...
