    Power mic for President Washington 10m radio?

    It depends on your intended use. If you're aiming for loud, punchy AM audio on eleven meters, the Astatic D104M6 or 575M6 are great choices. However, if you're operating on ten meter SSB or FM, the stock microphone should perform just fine.

    Any Airband Enthusiasts?

    It's always fun to listen. There maybe a tracon center near you as well. Chicago center is about thirty miles west of me and I can pickup both sides of converstation.

    Any Airband Enthusiasts?

    can anybody shoot me the good the bad and the ugly on baofeng uv 32?

    As someone who owns over thirty Chinese HTs, I can confidently say that Baofeng would be my last choice. The Radtel RT-470 and RT-490 are vastly superior in every respect. Both offer exceptionally good RX performance and clear TX audio, and their airband reception is outstanding.

    A few years ago I was using an HT with a Smiley 1/2 wave telescoping attached, I worked a friend who was mobile, he was about seven miles away and I was in the house. Excellent performer!

    Tidradio H3 Review: My new toy

    Update on the H3 radios: I bought two of them in 2024. Both were working fine—no third-party firmware, no charging with the battery attached. Then, within a couple of days of each other, they just died. I turned them on and… nothing. Nada. Strangely, after about a week, one of them came...
