    RCI 2980

    I may have forgotten to mention the radio in my pics is the wx version, that is probably why the power supply and main board are different. My apologies.

    RCI 2980

    I was surprised to see a torodol power transformer in this radio. Is this original equipment or has the transformer been replaced? Looks like Q39 is still in place, some research indicates that gets removed when super tuning the radio. I am setting up a time to look at the radio, are there...

    RCI 2980

    I emailed the seller, got pictures of the outside but nothing inside, he said it had been modified for full freq coverage but he did not know who had done the mod. He also said he had never had the cover off and only used the radio on 10 meters. He seemed reluctant to send pics of the inside...

    RCI 2980

    Just saw a posting for a 2980, owner says like new condition, priced at $250. I saw the post with the Ebay prices, the radio is 2 hours away so I have not looked at it. I would like some opinions before I talk to the seller.

    I will take a look at the Elad. Agree about Flex, if they don't have a midrange unit they are going to loose sales to these new units.

    Are you feeling the Bern ???

    I too would like to believe that but I'm not feeling very optimistic about it. Most colleges and university's are embracing socialism and not teaching true history these days, as a result the younger generation is not getting the true story about socialism. I am reminded of the saying "Those...

    Apache Labs SDR

    I also like the open source concept, I installed the thetis software on a spare machine and I must say it looks very good. Thanks for your input.

    Apache Labs SDR

    I was curious if anyone has more info on the possible new equipment coming from Apache Labs? There is some info posted in the Apache Labs news thread on the discussion board, but nothing has been confirmed by the company, so I would consider it vaporware at this point. I am looking to...

    MIKE OF MIKE'S RADIO REPAIR

    Could be his emphasis is more toward commercial radio now that he has the upgraded equipment. He has to pay for the new equipment somehow. I'm pretty sure he would prefer to deal with the more lucrative commercial radio business vs us cheap cbers. :D

    Is a transmitter audio equalizer needed

    What would you say the best way to set the audio is? I have tried using internet sdr's, and a 2nd receiver with headphones and a recording from the 2nd receiver?
