The reverse pig pole...the po man's 3cx15000a7 powwa supply.

All my elements are attached to the boom. Interesting...looks like mine's a little flatter. But we aren't comparing apples to apples..but the idea is the same.

Your right 1.1 from 26.9-27.5 1.5-2.0 from 26-28

With a little work, a 1.1 match from 26-28mhz.

You cut the driven element in half and add an insulator.Make sure to space it to prevent arcing. Feed it like a dipole. Add a coax choke..ugly balun..to keep the RF out of the coax. Adjust length at antenna.

No..But throwing out the gamma and directly feeding the drivin element is.

RIP J.D. A real gentleman operator.

Tall man, love reading this shit. I don't have time to transmit much less experiment. So I'll have to take your word.

The cleanest signal in the world still sound like shit 99% of the time after 150% positive. If you need more swang just use SSB.

I use a 575 on my mobile. It matches up great to that radio. I used a Heil Goldline on it for years on my base. At the time,most couldn't tell the differences between it and my Vaillant.

True, combining two amps into one antenna would be more gain at that polarity. But they have to be perfected matched. And even then the efficiency of that kind of combinder is awful. Besides you could have two completely different amps, power outputs. And the matching should be kids play.

How about this twist. One radio feeding two separate amps. One going into the vertical and the other horizontal. No db lost, no circular losses.

Yea I know. I own several Lincolns, just thought these looked pretty good. I liked the analog meter and the overall look. Was thinking of rolling the dice, the last President I bought was a complete piece of sh1t. I'm sure I'm not the first person on the planet to ask.

Looks like a President 2510 / Lincoln thing.

DStar sounds terrible...AOR to me sounded pretty damm good.

Of course it ain't new...it old sh1t. And I'm sure digital phone modes have gotten better since I dicked with 'em 17 years ago. CB is far from dead, but legal digital modes would make it interesting.

Anyone know the differences?
