    The Mocats

    I was involved on eleven meters from 1973 through 1990, and even though I owned a lot of radios back then, there were some I never got to hear or use. A few of them I’ve always been curious about—how they actually performed in the real world. One of those is the Motorola Mocat series. I know and...

    Stryker 955 Issue

    These are Chinese‑made, just like almost everything else these days. I’ve had a few Chinese radios work fine one day and quit the next. Granted, those were cheap ham HTs and not an overpriced export model, but it does happen.

    Home Tidradio TD-H3 Plus VHF/UHF Handheld Review

    Honestly, I really hope they addressed the issues the H3 had—especially the lack of a proper voltage regulator. I’ve never been a fan of the H3.

    2 Meter Sideband

    Back in the early ’90s, I was running 2m SSB with a stacked pair of Cushcraft 17B2s at 80 feet. My rig was an ICOM 275A, and I even built a 1kW amplifier to go with it. Those were fun times. These days, I’m using a Cushcraft 144-20T at 50 feet, paired with a Yaesu FT-901DM and a Yaesu...
