Mr Radio man doesn't wait for conditions. if he can't find some, i expect he makes his own.

that's some fine research and digging you did. seems to be a great price for some dang heavy coax

many thanks and welcome to the forum. a friend got 2 fifty foot chunks, he used it without issue on his base edit: the original swr problem was tracked down and determined not to be the coax. i should have posted that

check your local Craigslist or that facebook? sometimes on that ebay, i sort by distance and stuff right down the road shows up that i didn't see before. due to lack of tech around here, got a new carl built c80. bout close as i could find to what we are both looking for. bout 275 for a new...

was camping on 555 and heard Maine @ 5pm(est). went to 36lsb and made a whole bunch of contacts to the northeast in a half hour before they disappeared. got 1st contact to Suriname and Hawaii earlier today. all conditions, well under triple digits. take time, patience, and the right conditions...

https://cbtricks.org/radios/k_po/dx_5000/ downloaded an application for looking at a pdf. not the slightest idea which part of the schematic to find where to connect 2 wires to. couple bucks above my pay grade

as for getting rid of the noise, there are a few different external NRC devices that (according to reviews) do a great job at least calming that down. for lack of knowledge, can you do the hi-cut mod? no idea what that consists of, but lots of people love it

*please note the other modifications available from a certain cb sales .com

the technician i consult is in the hospital or i could ask him the specifics. he advised against it, not because he couldn't do the mod or that the mod didn't work, but he said they "weren't good for the radio". wish i could help more. had a 94hp with them, s1 on ssb & AM, never a problem...

looks promising

conditions have been like wild mustangs since the x1.1 flare. wide open or nothin

bad habit of mine. meant no offense by it. i have learned enough to make contacts on 26.555lsb/27.455usb. very nice folks.

my apologies, Mr 226. i was in the mobile in a snow storm. tried to qsy to 560usb, thought you said 360, then you got cut down by others. flipped between 560 and 360 usb and lsb many times trying to catch you without going in a ditch, but no luck. your radio was sounding good as always in...

5 yrs old, parents had a boombox that could tune in some sw. lived on top of a hill. was very interesting to hear voices that were in the air all around me, just had to get the right device to listen. 1995, found a 23ch in the barn. put power to it, popped a fuse. put a bigger fuse in line, POP...

i have been between 16lsb, 35lsb, and 40usb for 3hrs and have heard nothing but people speaking (spanish) and AM

3749's any good?

did the 4 wheeler answer?

I'm gonna hide behind a wall and throw this out there... GNF. lots of people would love to destroy GNF, and it only seems to work with very strong signals. to keep post related, does anybody have insight on the variable nrc for the q6p? i would imagine it works far better than the all or...

your antenna installation can be chalked up as successful. yes sir. it was nice to have an actual conversation instead of a hit and run number exchange. i am thankful conditions held out long enough for it. the k-po dx5000 / astatic 636 have been trusty since unboxing them. seven3
