These pictures are from the assembly instructions. The first picture is how its installed currently. The second is a picture from the instructions showing that bracket mounted the other way. I was just trying to figure out if it mattered which way the so 239 bracket came from the factory. Both...
Yes, thats what mine looks like. Now I know this antenna is not a true 5/8 wave on 11 meters. An 18ft. radiator on 11 meter is much closer to a half wave. I thought for sure the maco would perform better than the imax. Stations 30 miles away and further said I dropped half an S unit with the...
The pictures are in reverse, I'm not sure why that happened. You can see my hartke bass amp letters look backwards. I guess I did put this antenna together correctly.
I think the bracket should be flipped around. If you google some pictures of the v58 you will see that bracket mounted the other way with the coax coming out of the bottom of the bracket. sorry for the poor pictures.
I recently bought a maco v58 It won't tune to the 11 meter band until it's under 19 ft. The bracket with the so239 on it appears to be put on upside down. All the pictures I can find online of the maco show the so239 mounted the other way. Anybody else run into this problem?
That's a good
Using a little 40 channel walkie-talkie sounds like a really good idea. I'll have to try that. If I do find out where that most annoying sound is coming from I'll post it. thx 73's.
Boy this thread got way off track!!! You said it "sounds like it could be a mouse" . I had, past tense, a wireless mouse. I replaced it with a hardwired mouse about two years ago to fix that problem. Maybe I wasn't clear enough in my post. I was just trying to show that the interference signal...
My mouse is hardwired. I did have a wireless one, but when I keyed the radio the mouse stopped working. I thought It may have been my cell phone, but no effect. 12:30 am. the noise started again. I made sure all the computers and electronics were powered down, including the router. The...
Unfortunately I don't have the means to post a video. The sound I'm getting is similar to yours except it's more rapid and has a nasally tone. It doesn't seem to have a steady pattern to it,happens at random times through out the day. sort of digital sounding and super loud. maybe I can record...
I recently put up an Imax2000. I'm getting a weird sounding signal on 27.190mhz that is wiping out my receive on ch.19. The noise wasn't present on my old sirio gpe27/5/8 wave. It wasn't present on the wilson 1000 in the mobile either. Another oddity is my imax picks up the wx stations...
I'm sorry you had problems with the v2. I have a bone stock 99v2. The only thing done to it is the frequency expansion. I have no problems with it. No drift on sideband and excellent reports on the audio. There's a couple of folks running 99v2's around my area. both of those radio's came from a...
