    Telstar dx250 and dx 350 amplifiers

    I like to put it like this! If you sell me a 400HP car I intend to use all 400HP regularly. I expect the engine and the transmission to last me at least 300,000 miles with proper maintence. If you it can not do that you are a loser, liar and fleeced my wallet! I believe in continious power...

    Telstar dx250 and dx 350 amplifiers

    I own about 12+ of his PCB's and have built 3 seperate designs of his. They are fantastic. I have owned one of his finished units and it is fantastic. Everything he promised and no hiden issues. I would love to own a Tokyo High Power, Henry or JRC but they are out budget and I amnot even sure...

    What electronics have YOU fixed lately?

    In Boy Scouts the new kid if smart and independent got all kinds of craptastic work to just dog on him. Imagine having to un knot crates and duffle bags of knotted ropes probably decades worth. To this day I can unknott and untangle things like those Rubix's Cube competitors. I can talk and...

    What electronics have YOU fixed lately?

    I recapped a 2003 Toyota Camry ECU. The patient made a full recovery! Sadly rust will get her long before anything mechanical does!

    So when I go up to my mother inlaws place a convient ground plane I can just chuck ont he ground for 10-11 meter use. It will be built from stuff on hand. So probably 108" whip, some Francis 2 or 3 foot fiberglass wound antenna's as radials, some angle brackets, maybe some aluminium on a...

    How Bulletproof is the 13N10 Power MOSFET ??

    If heat is being generated in the drivers and finals than it is trying to transmit and the heat is evidence of that! Never seen an export wanabe amateur radio from China or a CB with SWR PWR fold back!!! This is not made by Tokyo Hypower or JRC in Japan! LOL Heat especially extreme in the...

    Inspect Your New Amps

    Imagine a car forum and someone is warning people about an engine problem but then refuses to tell people the Year, Make, Model, and Engine type! It would be a worthless post of no use to anyone! At the very least put a zip tie on that wire until you can get a proper strain relief. That...

    High quality knock of Toshiba 2sc2879?

    A lot of people are very hapyy with the HG2879 16D08. They are not perfect, and not as durable, and do not make the power but the price is good. You just have to operate them like a sane person not your average idiot! If you try to push the voltage or drive like some would on the Toshiba they...

    Adding swing

    Have you considered turning the low carrier downt o 1 or 2 watts and letting it swing adjusting the modulation and maybe slowing down how aggressive the AMC is? Then put a decent amp behind it. Maybe add an EQ inline and doing a gold finger audio mod to it? I am not against direct injection...

    This guy must be smokin' some stuff....

    They are worth what ever you can get someone to pay for them that is "fair market price" by definition. If he is willing to sit on them long enough and pay listing fews he will eventualy get a lot more for them than he really should. That said there is that guy from Canada on Ebay something...

    Presenting the reincarnation of the sl41 (stryker sr-76nc)

    I do not think it matters if it is a physical clone only a performance clone. I like Dino Ferrari's but I am after the experince not a part for part clone. Same thing goes for a lot of other things from food, to rifles to experinces! If it is sonicly good and durable I do not care about much...

    So My Radioddity QT40 came with a programing cable.

    Not sure if this is the new normal but mine came with this. I have not had more time since it arrived 2 days ago to see if it comes with a software disk or anything else. In the past I thought you had to pay extra for this?

    Palomar 300A power transformer. Actually found one!

    That is fantastic! Glad you found a part you needed to complete a set! Truly happy for you! It is sad to say but finding anything now is diffacult. It took me 3 years to get a OEM transmission filter for one car and about the same to get an OEM steering intermediate shaft for another! Easy to...

    Anytone Ares 2

    Do not take this the wrong way. I believe you are being honest. So that said what have you checked out on this radio? Did you do anything to it? Every factory cranks out some lemons but the Cobra 19 + was no gem. I think you got a lemon like if you got a Corvette that could not out accelerate a...

    Anytone Ares 2

    I knew a kid in a trailer in Hinesvile Ga that was using a FireStick on a roof gutter mount, a tiny Realistic or Cobra 40ch radio and a tiny wall-wort to power it. As long as people where behaving and the alligator stations and mobiles where not stomping around he was heard just fine. In fact I...

    Anytone Ares 2

    By the right radio or amp for each other. Plenty of people try to use a Stryker 955 with an amp that is not designed for that much drive. Likewise a HD amp was not designed for a 3 watt radio! Not secret information you need to join a secret society to learn! It is not at all hard to find a...

    Anytone Ares 2

    An affordable modern scope likely has FFT which while not a true spectrum analyzer it good enough for most with out needing to hunt down and expensive piece of gear you might not use often! Different it you need it to make a living.
