I got one for my Madison a while back thinking that I could drive my Texas Star DX500 with it. Turned out that the Madison does just fine on the 500 by itself and was unusable with the kl-60 as a driver. I keep it inline for taking local, does just fine on SSB. But for a little bit more, get the...

That is a nice looking antenna, almost bought one. I ended up getting a Sirio GPS 27 because I didn't want any radials at my mother in-laws house. For the antenna tubes, I always slit the ends with a hack saw and use stainless hose clamps. Between the joints, I use anti size with metal in it...

I didn't get any pictures of the element, but it goes in super easy. Basically you take the old dynamic one out, then put the electret under it. The electret pushes down into the foam, and it all goes back together like normal. This also keeps you from losing the dynamic one incase you ever want...

Power is going to the element through a 1K resistor. (If you dont use a resistor, you will blow the tiny diode on the back of the board) The two electrolytic caps are to isolate the amplifier board from the element power. They are wired together negative to negative, but a non polarized cap...

The new element is powered from the PTT switch where it switches the 9v battery power to the amplifier board. You can see the red wire attached to the bottom row of double pins at the bottom right of the board. The two pins on the bottom left were to switch the audio wire on and off, but this...

I bought one of these a while back because it is one of the few desk microphones still available. Unfortunately I found that the audio has no bass. Great for DX, but not what I was looking for. The solution was to put an electret element from an old telephone handset in it. The electret elements...

Copying the mail and made a contact with Texas off the side of my beam with the house in the way. And that's with 40w on an Ares 2! Don't forget to take the batteries out of your unused power microphones.

Yeah, maybe the threads for contests could be locked when they are done.

Silver is over $58 oz right now. Best bet now is to buy it on its way up. Check out the link I posted above for Kitco, I am currently buying gold and silver for my son with money he got from an insurance settlement. Kitco has bars and coins in all different sizes.

No. The radio is now my station monitor for the back workbench...

IF it's Chierda, I hope the noise reduction works. When I got my S890, it was a listed feature, but not in the menu. I asked the guy and he said it was for future...

Sorry, this contest is closed. This was from January earlier this year.

Wait, if you don't get adds, then you won't know what to buy... :rolleyes:

It's working, I've got you wall to wall and tree top tall!

Lost power early this morning, Brother in law around the corner reported that a squirrel got fried on the pole pig by his house. Powered up the station and the s9 sizzle is gone ( back to the normal 5 to 7) and transmit is clean now. Thanks to the squirrel, the power was cycled but might be...

I wish someone would make an affordable NRC module that I could put in my old Galaxies. These new radios have spoiled me and it's hard to go back.
